New York Times: “There tend not to be a lot of people to root for in Trump books. Reading them is like watching WWE fights in which all the wrestlers are heels, smashing each other with folding chairs.”
Trump Aides Worry About Kellyanne Conway’s Book
Politico: “Privately, former administration officials and top campaign aides have shared concerns about Conway’s upcoming tell-all in particular. The ex-president’s loyal former counselor is expected to give a hold-no-punches account of her time in the White House and those she worked alongside. Conway herself sat down with Trump for her book at Mar-a-Lago.”
Milley Said Trump Preached ‘Gospel of the Führer’
“General Mark Milley, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, likened Donald Trump’s effort to hold on to power after the 2020 election to Adolf Hitler, saying the president was preaching ‘the gospel of the Führer’ with his lies about the election being stolen, according to a new book by two Washington Post reporters,” New York Magazine reports.
“As chronicled in I Alone Can Fix It, by Carol Leonnig and Philip Rucker, the Pentagon’s top general said shortly before the January 6 insurrection at the Capitol that Trump had led the country to the brink of its own ‘Reichstag moment,’ viewing him as a potential threat to American democracy.”
Washington Post: “Milley described ‘a stomach-churning’ feeling as he listened to Trump’s untrue complaints of election fraud, drawing a comparison to the 1933 attack on Germany’s parliament building that Hitler used as a pretext to establish a Nazi dictatorship.”
CNN reports Milley “was so shaken” that Trump and his allies “might attempt a coup or take other dangerous or illegal measures after the November election that Milley and other top officials informally planned for different ways to stop Trump.”

Said the younger Trump: “The election is being stolen… Where are these votes coming from? How is this legit?”

Trump Wanted Leakers of Bunker Stay Executed
Then-President Donald Trump told advisers that whoever leaked information about his stay in the White House bunker during protests last June had committed treason and should be executed for sharing details with the press, according to excerpts of a new book, Frankly, I Did Win The Election, obtained by CNN.
“Trump boiled over about the bunker story as soon as they arrived and shouted at them to smoke out whoever had leaked it. It was the most upset some aides had ever seen the president.”
Trump Is Disappointed He ‘Saved’ Brett Kavanaugh
Former President Donald Trump is quoted in Landslide by Michael Wolff saying he is “very disappointed” in Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh and that he “hasn’t had the courage you need to be a great justice,” Axios reports.
Said Trump: “There were so many others I could have appointed, and everyone wanted me to.. Where would he be without me? I saved his life. He wouldn’t even be in a law firm. Who would have had him? Nobody. Totally disgraced. Only I saved him.”
Wolff writes that Trump feels betrayed by all three justices he put on the court, including Neil Gorsuch and Amy Coney Barrett, but “reserved particular bile for Kavanaugh.”
Inside Trump’s Election Day
The Washington Post has an excerpt of the must-read I Alone Can Fix It by Carol Leonnig and Phil Rucker.
“The morning of Nov. 3, 2020, President Trump was upbeat. The mood in the West Wing was good. Some aides talked giddily of a landslide… Trump’s voice was hoarse from his mad dash of rallies, but he thought his exhausting final sprint had sealed the deal. He considered Joe Biden to be a lot of things, but a winner most definitely was not one of them.”
Trump told aides: “I can’t lose to this fucking guy.”

Trump Regrets Sitting for Book Interviews
Former president Donald Trump, who agreed to sit for at least a dozen interviews in recent months for forthcoming books about his tenure, said that he considered doing so “a total waste of time,” the Washington Post reports.
Said Trump: “It seems to me that meeting with authors of the ridiculous number of books being written about my very successful Administration, or me, is a total waste of time… These writers are often bad people who write whatever comes to their mind or fits their agenda. It has nothing to do with facts or reality.”
Pence ‘Lost It’ When Trump Threw Article at Him
Former Vice President Mike Pence reportedly “lost it” and “snarled” at former President Donald Trump after getting a crumpled up newspaper article thrown at him which reported that his political committee hired Trump adviser Corey Lewandowski in 2018, the Wall Street Journal reports, in an excerpt of Frankly, We Did Win This Election.
“Mr. Pence picked up the article and threw it back at Mr. Trump. He leaned toward the president and pointed a finger a few inches from his chest. ‘We walked you through every detail of this,’ Mr. Pence snarled. ‘We did this for you — as a favor. And this is how you respond? You need to get your facts straight.'”

Trump Said Hitler ‘Did a Lot of Good Things’
On a visit to Europe to mark the 100th anniversary of the end of the first world war, Donald Trump insisted to his then chief of staff, John Kelly: “Well, Hitler did a lot of good things,” the Guardian reports.
The comment is reported in a new book, Frankly, We Did Win This Election, which says Trump made it during an impromptu history lesson in which Kelly “reminded the president which countries were on which side during the conflict” and “connected the dots from the first world war to the second world war and all of Hitler’s atrocities.”
