“Urgent, necessary reading.”
*Kirkus Reviews*
“A momentously thorough account of President Trump’s alarmingly
chaotic first year in office. . . . This precise and fiery
indictment of an unstable, unethical president concludes with a
call for us to defend our democracy.”
*Booklist*
"It’s Even Worse Than You Think shines a light on actions by
the White House and Trump-appointed federal officials on climate
change, job creation, taxes, race, immigration, and foreign
affairs, among other topics, that should concern – and alarm – all
Americans."
*The Huffington Post*
“Wolff’s news-breaking and news-stretching bestseller has
become the political book of the moment...But it is at best a
snapshot, already blurred and dated…Fortunately, other authors and
analysts are looking past the news alerts and war stories to
examine President Trump’s longer-term impact on the nation’s norms
and governance — on American democracy itself… In “It’s Even
Worse Than You Think,” journalist David Cay Johnston diagnoses the
Trump administration as a “kakistocracy,” or government by the
least qualified and most venal among us.”
