Confidence Man. The Making of Donald Trump and the Breaking of America by the foremost interpreter of Donald Trump, the New York Times' Maggie Haberman. Haberman, a Pulitzer Prize winner, takes a different approach to the “Trump Book.” She goes all the way back to his days in New York to understand the man who became president. Who, she says, is not much different than the man who raged through New York in the ‘70’s, ‘80’s and ‘90’s. If you want to understand Donald Trump, you have to understand Donald Trump in that uniquely New York milieu. Bill loved the book and you can buy a copy here

Tim Miller is an outspoken Never-Trumper. He writes like he talks and his recent book, Why We Did It: A Travelogue from the Republican Road to Hell is by turns engaging, enraging and, sometimes, just sad, as he explores the human wreckage caused by Donald Trump. Miller is an MSNBC analyst, writer-at-large for The Bulwark, and host of “Not My Party” on Snapchat. Tim was Communications Director for Jeb Bush’s 2016 presidential campaign and spokesman for the Republican National Committee during Mitt Romney’s 2012 campaign. He has since left the GOP.

Today Bill shines a light on Congressman Tim Ryan who is running to flip a Senate seat in increasingly Red Ohio. While the GOP donors have recently poured in $30,000.000 to rescue JD Vance, the Democratic establishment has been stingy with support for Tim. This race is very winnable and at the moment, Ryan is slightly ahead of Vance in the polls. But he needs cash to finish strong. Please send what you can to TimForOH.com.

Peter Baker, The New York Times Chief White House Correspondent and Susan Glasser, a Staff Writer for The New Yorker have created a masterpiece of journalism in their new book, The Divider: Trump in the White House, 2017-2021.

How did Barack Obama and Joe Biden meet? What did they think of each other? Was there’s really a bromance? And how did these two very different men form a very successful partnership for eight years in the White House. What did Barack Obama think of Biden’s chances in 2020? What is their relationship today? All those questions and more are answered in the new book, "The Long Alliance. The Imperfect Union of Joe Biden and Barack Obama" by New York Magazine National Correspondent Gabriel Debenedetti. You probably know Gabe from his many appearances on the Bill Press Reporters’ Roundtable. Bill highly recommends the book and it can be purchased here.
