Book: I Alone Can Fix It

The true story of what took place in Trump’s White House during a disastrous 2020. The authors explained how the government failed to contain the coronavirus. Then they explained who was influencing Trump after he refused to concede an election he had clearly lost and spread lies about election fraud. They revealed a dysfunctional and bumbling presidency’s inner workings in unprecedented, stunning detail. Their sources were in the room as time and time again Trump put his personal gain ahead of the good of the country.

I got so irritated each time DT said he had won the election "by a landslide," "by millions," etc. I just wanted to wring his neck. Not that that would have changed his knuckleheaded words.

Can't Count

Donald Trump on Wednesday seemed to forget who was president in 2021 as he called on voters to remember better times. 

“Three years ago, we were a great nation,” Trump said at a rally in Michigan during an off day in his criminal trial in the Stormy Daniels hush money case. “And we will soon be a great nation again.” 

His choice of “three years ago” as a measure of greatness struck many as curious given that he wasn’t president three years ago. 

President Joe Biden had already been in office more than three months. Trump lost the 2020 election.
