What If Rumsfeld Stood Trial?

What if a powerful U.S. leader faced a fictional trial for war, ego, and misinformation?

In this fascinating interview, author and attorney William Cooper returns to Chatting with Betsy to discuss his newest novel, The Trial of Donald H. Rumsfeld. Blending historical fact with fiction, Cooper imagines the trial that never happened — raising timely questions about power, ego, and political consequences. Betsy Wurzel and Cooper discuss the real-life “Rumsfeld Rules,” surprising touches of humor in the book, the importance of political civility, and how storytelling can challenge how we see history.

📚 William Cooper’s writings have appeared globally, including in The New York Times, CNN, Newsweek, and more.

🎙 He is the host of Books and More with William Cooper, available on Apple Podcasts and other platforms.
