Everything Trump Touches Dies

Everything Trump Touches Dies by Rick Wilson (2018) 327 pages

See the players in Donald Trump's campaigning and office-holding from the view of Rick Wilson, a Republican strategist and Never Trump-er. He lists the various people (often with biting, but humorous descriptions) both inside Trump's administration and in the world outside, indicating what he sees as wrong about their actions and/or how their associations with Trump have harmed them and their reputations.

By the last section of the book, Wilson's tone becomes deadly serious, listing what changes need to happen to save the Republican Party and the country itself. After his warnings, Wilson does end on a hopeful note. This book is quite a fast read; even though I try to keep up with current events, I learned a lot of behind-the-scenes detail from it.
