Publisher's summary

“There were these two women, these two beautiful, wonderful women, and I said, ‘Well, let me check it out.’ It took me about two seconds to say, ‘stardom.’” (Donald J. Trump)

“Diamond and Silk are a national treasure, and their astonishing, heartwarming story is nothing less than an American classic. Get ready to be bowled over.” (Mark Levin)

Who are Diamond and Silk? Donald Trump’s biggest fans. A national treasure. A force of nature. A political awakening that can’t be stopped. And a natural antidepressant. Diamond and Silk are all that and more.

The very sight and sound of these insightful and ebullient ladies lifts spirits and opens minds. Diamond and Silk are a unique phenomenon impossible to pigeonhole - or to control.

And now they tell their own story for the first time. In this account of their amazing journey, told in their own inimitable and irresistible voices, you’ll learn:

  • How the sisters Lynette and Rochelle Hardaway - a.k.a. Diamond and Silk - “were created for such a time as this”
  • How the bridge between their mother’s sharecropping family and their father, a middle-class business owner, shaped their characters
  • Why being “preacher’s kids” was a blessing - and a challenge
  • How working in North Carolina textile plants gave Diamond and Silk early insight into the way NAFTA was hurting Americans and exporting jobs to Mexico
  • Why they supported Donald Trump from the minute he announced his candidacy
  • Why Diamond and Silk will never desert Trump - despite being offered large monetary rewards to switch candidates
  • How social media moguls tried to shut them down and shut them up, lied to them, and gave them the runaround
  • How after gaslighting them for six months, 29 days, five hours, 40 minutes, and 43 seconds, Facebook made the preposterous claim that Diamond and Silk were “unsafe for the community”
  • Practical advice for succeeding the Diamond and Silk way: why “rejection is God’s protection - and redirection” and “your haters make you greater"

Informative and thought provoking

I thought this book was fascinating. It will make you stop and think about whether you really believe what you vote for or just do it because everyone you know votes that way. It made me think about questions I have that no one seems to be willing to answer.
Are you brave enough to read something that might make you think 🤔?

Awesome Story and Authors!

This was my first ever audiobook, and I’m so glad I decided to try it.

It’s a wonderful way to enjoy a book, without having “the time” or enough light, or having to hold something in your hands to read it. It enables me to work on my cross stitch, do housework, ride my bike around the neighborhood, and all sorts of activities while enjoying a great story, written by my two favorite sisters, “two black chicks, down with politics.” I love that they tell their story, in their own voices, with their signature style and sense of humor. I will love Diamond & Silk til the day I die, and I learned that I love audiobooks!

Great American Story! ** GET THIS BOOK**

This book is a must read. The last four chapters are compelling. These women are Changemakers! I listened to their wisdom and learned about their refusal to be intimated and manipulated. They have inspired me. Thank you Diamond and Silk 👑👑
