Fire and Fury

Résumé du livre

Michael Wolff, a former editor at Adweek, is an award-winning journalist whose work has appeared in Vanity Fair, the Guardian, New York magazine and the Hollywood Reporter. His articles have received two National Magazine Awards, and his previous best-selling books include The Man Who Owns the News and Burn Rate: How I Survived the Gold Rush Years on the Internet.

Trump’s aversion to reading and reliance on filtered news from Hope Hicks highlight a key limitation in his ability to process information, often leading to missteps, such as his initial indifference to the 2017 Syrian chemical attack until Ivanka swayed him with graphic footage, resulting in a missile strike timed for political optics. His impulsive behavior, from erratic tweets targeting critics like Mika Brzezinski to off-script rants and controversial decisions like firing James Comey, fueled chaos within his administration. This turmoil was exacerbated by internal clashes between Steve Bannon’s nationalist agenda and Jared and Ivanka’s moderate ambitions, with both factions vying for influence over Trump, who often sided with the last person he spoke to. Meanwhile, the administration faced mounting scrutiny over Russian interference, financial dealings, and poorly handled scandals, such as Donald Trump Jr.’s meeting with Russian operatives, which further exposed the dysfunction and lack of preparation within Trump’s inner circle.
