A comprehensive biography of Donald Trump, the Republican candidate in the presidential election campaign. Trump Revealed will be reported by a team of award-winning Washington Post journalists and co-authored by investigative political reporter Michael Kranish and senior editor Marc Fisher. Trump Revealed will offer the most thorough and wide-ranging examination of Donald Trump's public and private lives to date, from his upbringing in Queens and formative years at the New York Military Academy, to his turbulent careers in real estate and entertainment, to his astonishing rise as the Republican presidential nominee. The book will be based on the investigative reporting of more than two dozen Washington Post reporters and researchers who will leverage their expertise in politics, business, legal affairs, sports and other areas. The effort will be guided by a team of editors headed by Executive Editor Martin Baron, who joined the newspaper in 2013 after his successful tenure running The Boston Globe, which included the "Spotlight" team's investigation of sexual abuse in the Catholic Church.
Unter der Leitung von Michael Kranish und Marc Fisher versammelte die „Washington Post“ ein Team preisgekrönter Reporter, um jeden Aspekt von Trumps Leben zu durchleuchten: von seiner privilegierten Erziehung über seine Rechtsstreitigkeiten, seinem berüchtigten Womanizing, seiner sich ständig ändernden Parteizugehörigkeit bis hin zu seiner disruptiven Wahl zum Präsidenten im November 2016. Das Ergebnis ist das Porträt eines unentschlossenen Mannes mit einer Vorliebe für große Wetten – auf Immobilien, Markenunternehmen und letztendlich auf sich selbst. „Die Wahrheit über Trump“ bietet detaillierte Einblicke in das Leben und die Denke dieses Milliardärs, Geschäftsmanns und TV-Stars, der heute der US-Präsident ist. Die unverzichtbare und aktualisierte Biografie des 45. Präsidenten der Vereinigten Staaten!
