Story
In the greatest intelligence operation in the history of the world, Donald Trump was made president of the United States with the assistance of a foreign power. For the first time, The Plot to Destroy Democracy reveals the dramatic story of how blackmail, espionage, assassination, and psychological warfare were used by Vladimir Putin and his spy agencies to steal the 2016 US election. It will show how Russia and its fifth column allies tried to flip the cornerstones of democracy in order to reengineer the world political order that kept most of the world free since since 1945.

When he opened the FBI investigation into Russia’s election interference, Peter Strzok had already spent more than two decades defending the United States against foreign threats. His career in counterintelligence ended shortly thereafter, when the Trump administration used his private expression of political opinions to force him out of the Bureau in August 2018. But by that time, Strzok had seen more than enough to convince him that the commander in chief had fallen under the sway of America’s adversary in the Kremlin.

It is a chilling story that begins in the 1970s, when Trump made his first splash in the booming, money-drenched world of New York real estate, and ends with Trump’s inauguration as president of the US. That moment was the culmination of Vladimir Putin’s long mission to undermine Western democracy, a mission that he and his hand-selected group of oligarchs and Mafia kingpins had ensnared Trump in, starting more than 20 years ago with the massive bailout of a string of Trump hotel and casino failures. This book confirms the most incredible American paranoias about Russian malevolence.

The stakes have never been higher. As Maddow writes, "Democracy either wins this one or disappears."

It's a sleeper with critically important info
Admittedly, if I was reading this book I would have gotten to chapter 1 and quit. However, because it is an audiobook, it got me through the slow beginning and into the far more intriguing parts of the story. I feel like this book is the primer to what is yet to be revealed to the general public. The book -- which is at times dry -- covers everything. How Corn and Isikoff received this information will forever be a mystery to me. In any case, as the story of Russia crimes unfolds, having read (or listened to) this book will put you ahead of the rest. Names that still seem foreign to others will be familiar to you and the background behind their motivations clear.

great detail but very biased
The depth/breadth of information is impressive, but the democratic bias is just as strong. Poor Democrat actions are dismissed as supposedly noble mistakes. Very few people think that Trump is an angel, but neither is Hillary. I would have had more respect for the authors, their research, and their publication had they not been so biased towards the Democrats and forgiving of all wrongdoing by the Democrats.

Watergate Is Small Potatoes...
Regardless of your political leanings under normal circumstances - left, right, or somewhere in between, this involves all of the above. This is real journalism now, not just another polemic against Trump or Clinton or Obama or Putin. I remember Watergate; and in my opinion this truly is worse. Whereas Watergate involved high crimes, those crimes did not have existential consequences to the degree this does. This is a game changer. No matter what you know about the run up to the 2017 presidential election, as the saying goes: “You ain’t heard nothing yet”.

CHILLING
I've finished this book just days after Trump has fired Rex Tillerson as Secretary of State, adding to the chronic chaos of this Administration. The ending is a disturbing, disorienting shock, not for any specific information (it's fairly well known by now, at least generally, what's been going on) but it feels that the authors simply stopped typing in the middle of recording this American horror story and declared, "The end". Many new insights. I appreciate Obama's dilemma a bit more but wish, with this new perspective, that he had not done so much\so little to protect Americans from forming the wrong conclusion about his intentions. For someone so intent on creating a historical legacy, it appears that Obama vacillated because , in the end, he didn't trust history to sort out the truth. This will be a good book to return to from time to time as indictments and convictions and Russian poisonings and accrue.

Great Book Yet Total Political Incompetence
The book title, Russian Roulette, is misleading.
Although the 2016 presidential election and Russia is the back drop for the book, this is a story about total government, commercial and political incompetence at the highest levels. I voted for B. Obama was a huge fan of Obama before I listened to this book. Obama and the White House could have, and should have, taken care of this active measures attack during 2015 and 2016. However, shy and timid, afraid to act, afraid to influence the election, completely "the lame duck" for two years, the Obama administration's inaction and countermeasures paralysis is without question. This is clear after reading this very well written documentary.
In addition, H. Clinton's, her staff and information technology and cybersecurity team were also totally incompetent. Paralyzed and paranoid about the FBI's investigation into her terrible decision to use a private email server earlier, they did not heed any of the many and repeated FBI warning to secure her computing infrastructure. H. Clinton (whom I reluctantly supported for president prior to reading this book) and her team basically let all of this happen by not securing their systems and not cooperating with the FBI when the FBI tried to help them. Total incompetence and fear by the Clinton team and the DNC, etc.
I am not a Trump fan and think the sooner he is out of the White House the better for America. However, if the prior administration had of done their jobs protecting the country and critical infrastructures, including monitoring Facebook and other social media for foreign activity; most of the current problems with national security could have been avoided. Anyone with half a mind could see all of the misinformation on Facebook going back many years, yet no one did anything about it because they did not understand the simple basics of information warfare.
Facebook is also to blame as are other big, modern day media companies who permit people to register without verifying their identity, permit foreigners to buy advertising for political purposes, permit politically related advertising without identifying the true sponsors, and share the personal data of US citizens that can be weaponized against the national security of the country.
M. Zuckerberg and the Facebook team put profit and public relations before national security, this is obvious. Zuckerberg talks like an innocent child, and if so, why is such a child running the most influential and powerful media company in the world? It's time for him to step aside, I think; especially after the Cambridge Analytical story broke last week.
Yes, we all are mesmerized, myself included, by the 24 hour cable news reality show called "The Trump Presidency". However, this is not all Trump's fault. Trump and his team were probably more unwitting than everyone thinks. After all, if the entire US government, the prior administration and the intelligence community could not stop Russian interference active measures, why do we expect an inexperienced bombastic reality show TV star turned president to stop Russia?
Trump is probably afraid for himself and his family. He has very little institutional support except for rural, uneducated and disenfranchised voters and Russia. He must be "freaking out" as they say. Trump should admit he was duped by many people and move on to fix this very serious problem in cybersecurity. As the saying goes, "do not attribute to malice what can be attributed to incompetence." This story illustrates this old saying in spades.
This book is the most factual I have read so far on this topic. It's much more factual than "Fire and Fury", which was a great read, but not factual nor historical. "Collusion" by Luke Harding was good but not as factually deep. "The Plot to Hack America" by M. Nance was decent, but Nance is too biased against Trump and failed to see the core problem, incompetence by both the prior administration, the current administration and high tech for-profit personal-profile-for-sale companies.
This book is not very entertaining (compared to F & F). This book is factual and unbiased, meaning it is dry like a textbook.
This book is a must read if you want to know the truth, and the truth is not pretty for Democratic, Republicans or Zuckerberg and Co. Stop blaming Putin, and stop blaming Trump and stop the blame game, and fix this huge cybersecurity problem in America. Please. As for Zuckerberg, Mark is a nice guy. He should step down from Facebook and let adults who understand nationals security and the role of media in a democracy run Facebook.

Only 4 Stars 'Cause It's So Darned Depressing--
There is so much to make your toes curl in Russian Roulette. There's collusion, inactivity, negligence, greed, incompetence, fire where there's smoke. If you're a Trump fan, you'll find plenty of blame to plop on the doorstep of Obama. If you hate Hillary, there was dirt aplenty for Putin's cronies to find and for Wikileaks to air. If you think Trump is soulless in his avarice and ignorance, oh my god--it's all here.
Russian Roulette is a well-researched day by day, blow by blow history of what happened in and in the days leading up to 2016's election. There are covert operations, not-so-covert meetings. There's dissembling, obfuscation, and outright lying on so many fronts by so many people, Democrats, Republicans, Russians.
It will probably not change the way you think, but it's still stunning. Especially when the October Surprise is framed as Putin's birthday gift to himself.
The man is smiling.
And he's barely gotten started...

It’s amazing that all this data is out there, and the ignorant masses in the United States don’t pay attention to it. A high ranking Russian government official made a public statement that they were in touch with all trumps campaign executives before, during, and after the campaign. Also trumps obvious and public statements enabling the Russian meddling.. its a gaslighting world we live in currently..

The truth and nothing but the truth!
What made the experience of listening to Russian Roulette the most enjoyable?
What a riveting read-couldn’t put it down. Actually stories contained within this book have recently surfaced and are in the news right now. It makes you see that there is so much evidence that the 2016 elections were compromised. It was Putins way of getting back at Hillary Clinton for what he termed as her interference in the Russian 2012 elections,& he vowed to make her pay. All she did was point out there were corruption & inconsistentcies in his election campaign, and that was it,he wanted revenge!
Who was your favorite character and why?
Not Applicable
Have you listened to any of Peter Ganim’s other performances? How does this one compare?
No
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
The evidence of Trump’s Russian interaction and his inconsistencies about his contact with the Russians
Any additional comments?
Compulsive reading for anyone interested in politics and the 2016 election. Highly recommend it

Compelling
Brings together many strands in a coherent way. Well written and easy to follow. Also, of course, a chilling account of the 2016 campaign. Everyone should read/hear it. The reader ok, odd tendency to act out some passages in inappropriate voices, and appalling pronunciation of non-English surnames.

A sobering look at a successful Russian intel op
They got away with it and now we have Trump. I hope we at least get the pee pee tape

Worth the relisten
Obviously subsequent events have overlapped but overall you final it and just go 'hot damn'. We are under attack, subtly, but under attack.

Great book, for anyone interested in this subject
The reader is perfect, the story compelling. We are currently living through a time that historians will look back on as bigger than Watergate. This book brings it to life with evidence. I will read this book again and again. Thanks so much for writing it.

Trump's Treasonous Treasure Trove ?
Absolutely stunning storytelling. If the authors have not been sued over this book and it is true, then the USA has a president elected with the help of a foreign power and somebody is guilty of treason. Jaw-droppingly good listen. Amazing depth of reporting. Broken down and told ln a simple yet chilling story of political revenge, corruption, deception and the poisoning of American electoral institutions. A must read for people with even a passing interest in US politics.

A must read for anyone who cares about democracy
Incredible research and superbly narrated. It’s a ridiculous yarn about the dirty world of modern American politics.

What a story!
Extraordinary story of the hack of the 2016 election and activities of Russia. Very well researched fascinating, though depressing, to listen to. Unfortunately, Peter Ganim has a completely inappropriate voice for reading audio books. Far too bass, drawling and slow.

Astonishing and necessary
This is an incredible book detailing the Mueller investigation and the Trump relationship and vulnerability to Russia. Peter Ganim is the best narrator going around. Thoroughly researched and very clearly explained investigation by 2 great reporters. Compelling and disturbing.

Scarely true. Look back in time to see!
Great story. Narrators voice was a bit dead pan - would have appreciated a bit of variety in the delivery
