No longer tempered by experienced advisers, he is more impulsive and volatile than ever. But the wheels of justice are inexorably turning: Robert Mueller’s “witch hunt” haunts Trump every day, and other federal prosecutors are taking a deep dive into his business affairs. Many in the political establishment—even some members of his own administration—have turned on him and are dedicated to bringing him down. The Democrats see victory at the polls, and perhaps impeachment, in front of them. Trump, meanwhile, is certain he is invincible, making him all the more exposed and vulnerable. Week by week, as Trump becomes increasingly erratic, the question that lies at the heart of his tenure becomes ever more urgent: Will this most abnormal of presidencies at last reach the breaking point and implode?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBoth a riveting narrative and a brilliant front-lines report, \u003ci\u003eSiege\u003c\/i\u003e provides an alarming and indelible portrait of a president like no other. Surrounded by enemies and blind to his peril, Trump is a raging, self-destructive inferno—and the most divisive leader in American history.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReview(s):\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e“[\u003ci\u003eSiege\u003c\/i\u003e is] \u003cb\u003ea mordant, readable tell-all \u003c\/b\u003edesigned to show how Trump, simply by being Trump, has made himself the perfect wrecking ball, blasting holes through an array of institutions.” —\u003ci\u003eThe New York Times\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“Bannon’s frequently shrewd observations make it clear why Wolff finds him irresistible.
