Unter Beschuss

In "Fire and Fury," Michael Wolff documented the chaotic early months of Donald Trump's presidency. Now, the situation is quite different: Trump has dismissed his most capable advisors, and the global superpower of the USA is completely subjected to his impulsive instincts. At the same time, he is under fire from both friends and foes, from his radical base and the political establishment in Washington. In his gripping new book, Wolff portrays an American president who feels constantly persecuted and repeatedly brings himself to the brink of self-destruction: a Trump who is frantically fighting for political survival. Wolff's book is a tragicomedy and a grand political drama. He makes it clear how intertwined American foreign policy is with the business interests of his son-in-law and why Trump was able to evade special counsel Robert Mueller once again; that Trump couldn't locate North Korea on a map and that Melania is living back with her parents. And at the center of it all is a White House where everyone is at odds with each other - and everyone is asking: When is this all going to blow up in our faces? "Under Fire" is the most detailed portrait of that extraordinary man who, despite everything, is still the President of the United States.
