Authoritative, timely, and provocative, this deeply
researched biography of Donald Trump provides a complex
portrait of the man who—despite broad skepticism—could be
the next president of the United States. Who is Donald J. Trump? Despite decades of scrutiny, many aspects of his life are
not well known. To discover Trump in full, The Washington
Post assembled a team of award-winning reporters and
researchers to delve into every aspect of Trump’s improbable
life, from his privileged upbringing in Queens to his
astonishing 2016 rise to seize the Republican candidacy for
president. Coauthored by Washington Post investigative political
reporter Michael Kranish and senior editor Marc Fisher, this
comprehensive book documents Trump’s fascinating family
roots, his aggressive efforts to make a name for himself in
New York social circles, and his penchant for big bets—on
real estate, branded businesses, and, ultimately, on himself. The authors, seasoned journalists who interviewed Trump for
this book, scrutinize everything from his youthful alliance
with the power broker Roy Cohn to his alleged dealings with
organized crime and his controversial projects in New York
City, Atlantic City, Florida, Scotland, and Azerbaijan. The authors examine Trump’s wealth, the evolution of his
political beliefs, and his peculiar identity as a
billionaire businessman, celebrity, global brand, television
star, and now candidate for the most powerful office in the
world. Few individuals have ever roamed so widely through
such diverse realms as real estate, sports, entertainment,
and national politics. How has Trump’s life informed his bold statements on the
economy, immigration, race, global trade, terrorism, and women? Drawn from in-depth reporting by The Washington Post, Trump
Revealed is essential reading as the 2016 American
presidential election looms.
