Synopsis

On the campaign trail in 2016 Donald Trump promised us that he would hire "only the best people" and would "drain the swamp" of all those lobbyists who had hurt the country's working class. However, eschewing any deliberative vetting process, Trump has appointed some of the worst examples of lobbyists, grifters, sycophants, liars, racists, abusers of women, flakes, and future felons who have ever been assembled to participate in the governance of this country. Yes, there have been a few serious policy professionals who have attempted to keep the president from following his worst instincts. However, in most cases, they have either resigned, been forced out, or been fired. This book explains how Trump selected department heads who have managed to undermine, and in some cases , destroy the mission of the department they lead. When Scott Pruitt was Oklahoma Attorney General he filed 14 lawsuits against the Environmental Protection Agency. That did not prevent Trump from later appointing Pruitt as the administrator of that agency. Learn how Don Jr. and Ivanka Trump avoided being indicted by the Manhattan District Attorney's Office for "deceptive" real estate deals. Discover how a "sweetheart deal" for convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein was negotiated by former Trump Labor Secretary Alex Acosta. And did Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman really tell another Saudi Prince that "Jared Kushner was in his pocket."? Donald Trump didn't drain the swamp. He filled it.
