Summary
Washington Post journalists Kevin Sullivan and Mary Jordan present an account of the investigation, impeachment, and acquittal of Donald Trump, a political drama that challenged American democracy itselfSullivan and Jordan, Washington Post reporters, put readers in the room for both sides of the now-famous phone call between Trump and Ukrainian president Zelensky on July 25, 2019, revealing the in-the-moment reactions of those listening to the call in Washington, as well as the tension in Kyiv, as aides passed notes to Zelensky while he was talking to Trump. They concentrate on the characters as well as the dramatic events, braiding them together to provide a remarkable understanding of what happened and why. In the aftermath of Trump's acquittal and the president's payback for those whom he believed had betrayed him, they examine a nation reeled from a devastating pandemic and widespread protests about racial injustice, with another trial looming: the 2020 election. -- adapted from jacket
