产品介绍

"这是特朗普最害怕的一本书"。- 阿克塞斯

来自普利策奖得主《纽约时报》的记者，他对唐纳德-J-特朗普总统任期的定义是其他记者所无法比拟的：一本宏大而令人不安的清算书，记录了他的生活及其意义，从他在纽约市的崛起到他受折磨的总统后任期。

今天，很少有记者比玛吉-哈伯曼(Maggie Haberman)更广泛地报道唐纳德-特朗普。也很少有人能更好地理解他和他的动机。现在，哈伯曼展示了她对这个故事的雄心壮志，全面揭示了她对第45任总统本人以及对特朗普现象意味着什么的深刻理解。

对数百个消息来源的采访以及多年来对特朗普本人的多次采访，描绘了一个复杂的、常常是矛盾的历史人物。他有能力表现出仁慈，但在符合他的目的时，也会依赖随意的残忍行为。 贪婪。没有安全感。孤独。报复性。威胁性。比他的批评者更聪明，比他的盟友认为的更冷酷，更有心计。这个人将自己嵌入流行文化，为他30年前就开始的高层竞选激发支持，最终成为将美国民主推到边缘的总统。

特朗普的生活和他的总统任期的贯穿线是一个持久的问题，即什么是对他有利的，或者他需要说什么才能在追求自身利益的短暂时间内生存。    

自信的人》也不可避免地是关于产生了这样一个奇特人物的世界，催生了他的事业并成为他的第一个舞台。它也是关于一系列无情的交易关系。对他影响最大的是与女友和妻子、与罗伊-科恩、与乔治-斯坦布雷纳、与迈克-泰森、唐-金和罗杰-斯通、与罗伯特-摩根索和鲁迪-朱利安尼等市和州的政治家、与商业伙伴、与检察官、与媒体，以及与那些在他们通常称之为 "特朗普组织 "的内部工作的员工。  

这个世界告知了特朗普在白宫时试图重新创造的世界。特朗普作为总统的所有行为都与之前的行为相呼应。 在这本具有启示性和新闻性的书中，哈伯曼将他一生的事件汇集成一部令人着迷的作品。它是对美国政治史上最具规范性和影响力的时代之一的权威性描述。

Product Description

“This is the book Trump fears most.” - Axios

From the Pulitzer-Prize-winning New York Times reporter who has defined Donald J. Trump's presidency like no other journalist: a magnificent and disturbing reckoning that chronicles his life and its meaning from his rise in New York City to his tortured post-presidency.

Few journalists working today have covered Donald Trump more extensively than Maggie Haberman. And few understand him and his motivations better. Now, demonstrating her majestic command of this story, Haberman reveals in full the depth of her understanding of the 45th president himself, and of what the Trump phenomenon means.

Interviews with hundreds of sources and numerous interviews over the years with Trump himself portray a complicated and often contradictory historical figure. Capable of kindness but relying on casual cruelty as it suits his purposes. Pugnacious. Insecure. Lonely. Vindictive. Menacing. Smarter than his critics contend and colder and more calculating than his allies believe. A man who embedded himself in popular culture, galvanizing support for a run for high office that he began preliminary spadework for 30 years ago, to ultimately become a president who pushed American democracy to the brink.

The through-line of Trump’s life and his presidency is the enduring question of what is in it for him or what he needs to say to survive short increments of time in the pursuit of his own interests.    

Confidence Man is also, inevitably, about the world thatproduced such a singular character, giving rise to his career and becoming his first stage. It is also about a series of relentlessly transactional relationships. The ones that shaped him most were with girlfriends and wives, with Roy Cohn, with George Steinbrenner, with Mike Tyson and Don King and Roger Stone, with city and state politicians like Robert Morgenthau and Rudy Giuliani, with business partners, with prosecutors, with the media, and with the employees who toiled inside what they commonly called amongst themselves the “Trump Disorganization.”  

That world informed the one that Trump tried to recreate while in the White House. All of Trump’s behavior as President had echoes in what came before. In this revelatory and newsmaking book, Haberman brings together the events of his life into a single mesmerizing work. It is the definitive account of one of the most norms-shattering and consequential eras in American political history.
