Story
President Trump has said publicly that Woodward has interviewed him. What is not known is that Trump provided Woodward a window into his mind through a series of exclusive interviews. At key decision points, Rage shows how Trump’s responses to the crises of 2020 were rooted in the instincts, habits and style he developed during his first three years as president. Rage draws from hundreds of hours of interviews with first-hand witnesses, as well as participants’ notes, emails, diaries, calendars and confidential documents.

Donald Trump and His Assault on Truth is based on the only comprehensive compilation and analysis of the more than 16,000 fallacious statements that Trump has uttered since the day of his inauguration. He has repeated many of his most outrageous claims dozens or even hundreds of times as he has sought to bend reality to his political fantasy and personal whim. Drawing on Trump's tweets, press conferences, political rallies, and TV appearances, The Washington Post identifies his most frequently used misstatements, biggest whoppers, and most dangerous deceptions.

Summary
The Sunday Times number one best seller.
The Observer book of the year.
The inside story on President Trump, as only Bob Woodward can tell it.
With authoritative reporting honed through eight presidencies from Nixon to Obama, author Bob Woodward reveals in unprecedented detail the harrowing life inside President Donald Trump’s White House and precisely how he makes decisions on major foreign and domestic policies. Woodward draws from hundreds of hours of interviews with first-hand sources, meeting notes, personal diaries, files and documents. The focus is on the explosive debates and the decision-making in the Oval Office, the Situation Room, Air Force One and the White House residence.
Fear is the most intimate portrait of a sitting president ever published during the president’s first years in office.
Critic reviews
"Fear is a meticulously researched account of a White House and a president in financial, legal and personal disorder...essential reading." (Daily Mail)
"The sheer weight of anecdotes depicts a man with no empathy and a pathological capacity for lying.' (The Financial Times)
"Fuelling his narrative is an astonishing cast of rogues, ideologues, self-made millionaires and men in uniform who have spent the past two years in and out of Trump's administration." (The Sunday Times)

Not just slinging mud
When others wrote books about the Trump administration, I wasn't particularly interested, as nothing in their selling of their books took away my assumption that it was going to be about gossip and/or score-settling. But when Pulitzer Prize winner Bob Woodward announced his book, I sat up and paid attention, as this would surely be offering credible insights based on thorough investigation — and indeed it does.
Woodward doesn't merely scratch surfaces, but dives in deep. Thankfully for lay people like myself, he also takes his time to explain matters. Nevertheless, his book provides such an information overload, that after I finished listening to the audio version of Audible, I went straight back and started listening to it again... there is just so much – mostly baffling – information to take in, and still I find myself having to rewind regularly because I'm having a 'Wait, what? Did I really hear that?!' moment yet again.
This isn't a mere mud-slinging exercise; in fact, I would argue that at least in parts it shows Trump in a better light than Trump tends to show himself to be. Moreover, anything in this book that could be perceived as criticism, doesn't appear to be levied solely at Trump, but seems directed at plenty of others as well – including Trump's predecessor Obama and his administration.
I'm sure this book isn't the final one written by Bob Woodward; it's possibly not even his final work on Trump. I look forward to any future instalments.

Fly-on-the-wall view of a tumultuous presidency
This is an extraordinary in-depth and forensic account of the Trump presidency, based on interviews with those closest to it. The main characters are quoted as if what they said is a matter of record (which it generally isn’t), but there’s no doubt the research underpinning it was extensive. The overall effect is similar to listening to a political drama, at times thriller. It gives a unique insight into the chaotic decision-making in Trump’s White House as his administration grapples with crisis after crisis. The lengthy cast list of characters means at times it can be tricky keeping track of what’s going on, but the portrait of Trump is so vivid (and entirely plausible) that it’s a compelling listen, clearly read at a good pace.

Frighteningly compelling
Until now I hadn’t realised what a loose-canon Trump is. I knew he went in for ill-judged tweets and incendiary rhetoric, but, having just listened to this audiobook telling a detailed account of what it’s like in the Trumps Whitehouse I feel more afraid that this Dr Strangelove-like character is in charge of a world-power. His mercurial changeability, inability and unwillingness to master briefing documents: a classic case of ignorance coupled with over-weening confidence in his own abilities. It must be Hell working for him if one has any scruples. What surprised me is his laziness: hours watching trashy news programs and frequent trips to his golf courses.
An engrossing listen that made me fearful for the world, not least the President's denial that global warning is an existential threat to the continued existence of life on Earth.

More questions than answers
This book had so much hype that I thought I knew where it would go.
I’m now more confused than before I listened to it.
Trump should be happy with the ending, with his attorney pretty much making the case for his exoneration for anything Mueller might have.....or did he?
That’s the question.
If you have the ability of rational thinking than you know he’s not fit to be president if for no other reason but his ignorance of how to run a country. Woodward made that case though trump has made it for him really. But as far as any charges that I may once thought might be forthcoming from the entire investigation...well I’m not so sure.
That doesn’t make me one bit happier that this egotistical maniacal pathological liar is the president of my country. But to tell you the truth I almost feel sorry for him!...almost that is. However when you throw into the mix his treatment of women that so many others are now either fired because of or are serving time for, his rash dealings with North Korea, his treatment of others to include Australia, blah blah blah, my pity turns again to anger.
That the people who are his base were so determined to get someone in office that could validate their mostly self-serving bigoted ideas, their championing any rogue so they need not be politically correct and roll the clock back to our countries dark ages of women as second class citizens, inequality, racist attitudes, intolerance of anyone not white, straight, anglo-saxon, male dominated world because that’s the way it should be cause we wear the pants...I am left at a loss.
Obviously not of words as this badly written review exemplifies, but of any illusion I might have had that I had a good understanding of human nature.
So yes I would recommend this book if for no other reason that it will definitely give you a perspective that you just might not know lurks under your radar!

Fair, balanced and convincing
Not much in this title is new considering what is in the news. What surprised me most was that the way the narrative is consistently phrased is such that you can see the other side of the story. Rather than outrage, you are taken along and sort of see that aspects are reasonable for a certain view, even if that view itself is not reasonable.
That does not make what is going on comfortable or offer excuses, but does offer some assurance things are considered, while at the same time showing that the consideration is based on wrong perceptions, interpretation, 'facts' and mostly preconceived notions of appearance, hopes and dreams.
Great title that does not hold back but does offer context so often missed.

Enthralling and probably fair
I enjoyed listening to this book and found the writing and pace to be informative and enjoyable. There are no great revelations in this book other than those already covered in the media. However, the portrail of Trump's capabilities and how he operates within the walls of the white house is vivid and gives a very detailed second hand account of the day to day of the current presidency.
One discordant note is the complete failure to capture the President Trump's voice. In the book he speaks in complete sentences, which does not reflect how Trump actually speaks. As an audio account there is no way to see where quotations are marked, however, it is noticeable and a little jarring.
I wont go into credibility or impressions, I will just note that it is well worth the credit and that the book improves as you progress.
