“He shits down but sucks up.”\u00a0<\/strong>
\n–Roger Ailes on Donald Trump<\/p>\n

The first nine months of Donald Trump’s term were stormy, outrageous – and absolutely mesmerising. Now, thanks to his deep access to the West Wing, bestselling author Michael Wolff tells the riveting story of how Trump launched a tenure as volatile and fiery as the man himself.<\/p>\n

In this explosive book, Wolff provides a wealth of new details about the chaos in the Oval Office. Among the revelations:<\/p>\n

– What President Trump’s staff really thinks of him
\n– What inspired Trump to claim he was wire-tapped by President Obama
\n– Why FBI director James Comey was really fired
\n– Why chief strategist Steve Bannon and Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner couldn’t be in the same room
\n– Who is really directing the Trump administration’s strategy in the wake of Bannon’s firing
\n– What the secret to communicating with Trump is
\n– What the Trump administration has in common with the movie\u00a0The Producers<\/i><\/p>\n

Never before has a presidency so divided the American people. Brilliantly reported and astoundingly fresh, Michael Wolff’s\u00a0Fire and Fury<\/i>\u00a0shows us how and why Donald Trump has become the king of discord and disunion.<\/p>\n

The publication on Wednesday of excerpts from a new book on the Trump administration, first by the\u00a0<\/span>Guardian<\/a>\u00a0and then by\u00a0<\/span>New York magazine<\/a>, brought to light a host of explosive reports of internecine fighting and organisational chaos at the heart of the US presidency.<\/span><\/p>\n

Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House<\/a>, by the former Guardian columnist and Rupert Murdoch biographer Michael Wolff, will be published in full next Tuesday. In December he told the Guardian that in his approach to researching the book he had been \u201cnot particularly hostile\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat allowed me to get them to be relatively open,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
