520 _aThis deeply reported insider story shows how a small group of Washington officials such as Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch, Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman, and Fiona Hill forged a resistance movement against the unprecedented Trump presidency.
520 _aWhat nearly happened during the Trump years could have been so much worse: the USA came close to wars, abuses of power, cruelty, and dysfunction at the highest levels of our government. Rothkopf shows that a small number of men and women, many from the top ranks of the Trump administration-- life-long Republicans-- risked everything to honor their oaths to the Constitution. Many of the worst and most dangerous ideas of a rogue president were defeated by the very people he put in positions of trust. Rothkopf celebrates a vital victory-- but offers a bleak warning for the future. -- adapted from jacket
