Summary
Random House presents the audiobook edition of House of Trump, House of Putin by Craig Unger, read by Jason Culp.
House of Trump, House of Putin offers the first comprehensive investigation into the decades-long relationship among Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin and the Russian Mafia that ultimately helped win Trump the White House.
It is a chilling story that begins in the 1970s, when Trump made his first splash in the booming, money-drenched world of New York real estate, and ends with Trump’s inauguration as president of the United States. That moment was the culmination of Vladimir Putin’s long mission to undermine Western democracy, a mission that he and his hand-selected group of oligarchs and associates had ensnared Trump in, starting more than 20 years ago with the massive bailout of a string of sensational Trump hotel and casino failures in Atlantic City. This book confirms the most incredible American paranoias about Russian malevolence.
To most, it will be a hair-raising revelation that the Cold War did not end in 1991 - that it merely evolved, with Trump’s apartments offering the perfect vehicle for billions of dollars to leave the collapsing Soviet Union. In House of Trump, House of Putin, Craig Unger methodically traces the deep-rooted alliance between the highest echelons of American political operatives and the biggest players in the frightening underworld of the Russian Mafia. He traces Donald Trump’s sordid ascent from foundering real estate tycoon to leader of the free world. He traces Russia’s phoenixlike rise from the ashes of the post-Cold War Soviet Union as well as its ceaseless covert efforts to retaliate against the West and reclaim its status as a global superpower.
Without Trump, Russia would have lacked a key component in its attempts to return to imperial greatness. Without Russia, Trump would not be president. This essential book is crucial to understanding the real powers at play in the shadows of today’s world.

Terrifying
I have been deeply moved by this book and think all who value Western democracy should read it.
The book is heavy on names and relentless on “facts”. It is not a light read but it is hard to see how the information could have been laid before the reader in a more digestible format.
The lay reader cannot corroborate all the information put forward. However even a cursory glance of the actions of Donald Trump suggest much, if not all that Unger says, is true. If this is the case then to have a mole or a fool, perhaps both, at the very heart of the Western value system is terrifying.

Scary. Bone Chillingly Scary...
If director Mueller can prove a fraction of this, President Trump will soon have a jump suit to match his hair. Vladimir Putin is the Godfather and as Unger describes Trump is stupid and greedy enough to be compromised by him.

Extremely informative.
A massive amount of information, difficult in remembering all the Russian names Would be interesting for those studying American and Russian politics.

Very informative
Great book, interesting angles, who knew the intricacies of the deceit? Enjoyed listening to the depths that the tentacles of organised crime reach, both up & down. I have no doubt this book only scratches the surface too.
