Out this month: At War with Ourselves: My Tour of Duty in the Trump White House By H. R. McMaster.
Said McMaster to CBS News: “I got used up essentially in the service of Donald Trump. I was at peace with that. And I was not going to try to keep my job by telling the president what he wanted to hear.”
He added: “I describe the environment as an environment of competitive sycophancy… The president wanted advice; he also wanted flattery. He really likes the adulation. In many ways he’s kind of addicted to adulation from his political base, from people around him.”
