"In the tradition of Theodore White's landmark books, the definitive look at how Donald J. Trump shocked the world to become president,"--Amazon.com.

"From Roger Stone, Republican strategist and longtime political adviser and friend to Donald Trump, comes an examination of how Trump's campaign tapped into the national mood to deliver a stunning victory that almost no one saw coming. In the early hours of November 9, 2016, one of the most contentious, polarizing, and vicious presidential races came to an abrupt and unexpected end when heavily favored presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton called Donald J. Trump to concede, shocking a nation that had, only hours before, given little credence to his chances. Donald Trump pulled the greatest upset in American political history despite a torrent of invective and dismissal by the mainstream media. How the 'silent majority' shifted the election to Donald Trump in traditionally Democratic Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Michigan, thus handing him the presidency. How Donald Trump harnessed discontent among 'Forgotten Americans' While running a guerrilla-style grassroots campaign to compete with the smooth-running and free-spending Clinton political machine. How Trump brilliantly picked at Hillary Clinton's weaknesses, particularly her reputation as a crooked insider, and ignited the passions of out-of-work white men and women from the Rust Belt and beyond, at a time when millions of Americans desperately wanted change. How and why the mainstream media got it wrong, including how the polls were loaded. Roger Stone is the author of The Man Who Killed Kennedy.
