The cost : Trump, China, and American revival / Maria Bartiromo and James Freeman.

Bartiromo, Maria, (author.).

Summary:

"The United States may never have another president as loved and hated as Donald J. Trump. And it's hard to imagine one being subjected to so many investigations. The Dos Equis beer ads had it wrong-America's 45th president is the most interesting man in the world. And his administration deserves a fair accounting, not unqualified condemnation or praise. We intend to make the case that Donald Trump is an underrated chief executive-and that the abuse of federal investigative power against him is the greatest scandal of his era. We also intend to explain how a White House that appears so chaotic and has been so fiercely resisted by the nation's press and political establishment has managed to enact so much of the agenda promised to voters in 2016. Difficult as it may be for many media observers to comprehend-and regardless of the 2020 election-Trump has achieved a successful presidency hidden in plain sight." -From back cover.

Summary

The Cost : Trump, China, and American Revival


The world needs a strong America, and America needs an economic revival after the Coronavirus season of shutdowns. Can the playbook that resulted in the greatest job market in history put Americans back to work? From the first moments of his presidency, Donald J. Trump put US economic revival at the top of his agenda. Cutting red tape and slashing business tax rates made companies eager to locate in America again. A surge in corporate investment led to record numbers of US job openings. But there was also another force at work at the start of the Trump era, and it's impossible to provide a fair accounting of Trump's governance without noting the unique obstacles he's faced. The President's critics styled themselves "The Resistance," as if they were confronting a tyrant at the head of an invading army rather than their duly elected President. Much of the media establishment regularly--and wrongly--accused him of betraying the country. Most disturbing was the resistance movement inside government, formed even before the 2016 election, which unleashed unprecedented surveillance against Donald Trump. The political and media warfare has never ended. Just as an impeachment case collapsed in the Senate earlier this year, the world was beginning to realize how large a threat the Chinese communist government had become--and what it had been hiding in Wuhan. The destruction caused by the coronavirus is the latest and greatest test for the Trump prosperity agenda. Once again the health and wealth of the world depend on US leadership for economic revival. This is the story of the man US voters chose to lead in 2016 and will soon consider to lead again.
