The Inside Story of the Real President Trump, by His Former Attorney and Personal Advisor—The Man Who Helped Get Him Into the Oval Office
Once Donald Trump's fiercest surrogate, closest confidant, and staunchest defender, Michael Cohen knows where the skeletons are buried.
This is the most devastating business and political horror story of the century. As Trump's lawyer and "fixer," Cohen not only witnessed firsthand but was also an active participant in the inner workings of Trump's business empire, political campaign, and presidential administration.
This is a story that you have not read in newspapers, or on social media, or watched on television. These are accounts that only someone who worked for Trump around the clock for over a decade—not a few months or even a couple of years—could know. Cohen describes Trump's racist rants against President Barack Obama, Nelson Mandela, and Black and Hispanic people in general, as well as the cruelty, humiliation, and abuse he leveled at family and staff. Whether he's exposing the fact that Trump engaged in tax fraud by inflating his wealth or electronic fraud by rigging an online survey, or outing Trump's Neanderthal views towards women or his hush-money payments to clandestine lovers, Cohen pulls no punches.
He shows Trump's relentless willingness to lie, exaggerate, mislead, or manipulate. Trump emerges as a man without a soul—a man who courts evangelicals and then trashes them, panders to the common man, but then rips off small business owners, a con man who will do or say absolutely anything to win, regardless of the cost to his family, his associates, or his country.
At the heart of Disloyal, we see how Cohen came under the spell of his charismatic "Boss" and, as a result, lost all sense of his moral compass.
The real "real" Donald Trump who permeates these pages—the racist, sexist, homophobic, lying, cheating President—will be discussed, written about, and analyzed for years to come.

Consider everything bad you've heard about Donald Trump. Quadruple it, and you have a sense of where this winding book begins. Not since John Dean's Blind Ambition have we seen a political mea culpa as thoroughgoing as this one. Like a Mafia chief, Cohen asserts, Trump "wouldn't mind if I were dead," and plenty of Trump cultists would be glad to do the hit--or, in the case of Matt Gaetz, he alleges, at least commit blackmail. Cohen's transgression? To cooperate with the Mueller investigation, which "was not a witch-hunt," since Trump gladly courted "Russian connivance" in the 2016 election. Cohen enabled this and many other crimes and misdemeanors. At their very first encounter, he recalls, Trump lied to him "directly, demonstrably and without doubt." He swallowed it because he wanted a taste of the "intoxicating cocktail of power, strength, celebrity, and a complete disregard for the rules and realities that govern our lives." By Cohen's account, it was his idea that Trump run for president in both 2012 and 2016, though Trump shied from the former race because he feared Barack Obama, whom he hated with a passion. Trump's "unhinged Archie Bunker racism" defines him, writes Cohen, as does his contempt for everyone who is not within his inner circle. Even they aren't safe: "The kid has the worst fucking judgment of anyone I have ever met," Trump said of Don Jr. He scorns his fundamentalist supporters ("Can you believe people believe that bullshit?"), bilks friends, reneges on promises and debts, and cheats in every possible way. Though some people seem not to mind being ill-used, it's telling, notes Cohen, that Trump has not a single friend. One thing is sure: If Trump is guilty of even a portion of the charges leveled here, then he has no business being president--though, Cohen warns, Trump will not leave office willingly if he loses in 2020, having found the perfect con game. A furious, rueful confession of crimes committed by and on behalf of the sitting president.COPYRIGHT(2020) Kirkus Reviews, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
