À propos de cet audio

 Rage is an unprecedented and intimate tour de force of new reporting on the Trump presidency facing a global pandemic, economic disaster and racial unrest.

Woodward, the #1 international bestselling author of Fear: Trump in the White House, has uncovered the precise moment the president was warned that the Covid-19 epidemic would be the biggest national security threat to his presidency. In dramatic detail, Woodward takes readers into the Oval Office as Trump’s head pops up when he is told in January 2020 that the pandemic could reach the scale of the 1918 Spanish Flu that killed 675,000 Americans.

In 17 on-the-record interviews with Woodward over seven volatile months—an utterly vivid window into Trump’s mind—the president provides a self-portrait that is part denial and part combative interchange mixed with surprising moments of doubt as he glimpses the perils in the presidency and what he calls the “dynamite behind every door.”

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.

Revisiting the earliest days of the Trump presidency, Rage reveals how Secretary of Defense James Mattis, Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats struggled to keep the country safe as the president dismantled any semblance of collegial national security decision making.

Rage draws from hundreds of hours of interviews with firsthand witnesses as well as participants’ notes, emails, diaries, calendars and confidential documents.

Woodward obtained 25 never-seen personal letters exchanged between Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, who describes the bond between the two leaders as out of a “fantasy film.”

Trump insists to Woodward he will triumph over Covid-19 and the economic calamity. “Don’t worry about it, Bob. Okay?” Trump told the author in July. “Don’t worry about it. We’ll get to do another book. You’ll find I was right.”

it is a long book to read or listen. It is clear, sometimes hard to believe, a inside view of Trump's thinking and acting.

an unbiased view of Trump's presidency

It’s a little repetitive at times, but that’s more a fault of Trump than it is anything else. Woodward’s latest will stun you and Petkoff does wonders in subtle vocal nuance to add believability to these unbelievable yet true to life events. Great book. Shocking. Frustrating. Mind blowing. Real.

8.7 / 10

The best book to understand Trump in the Whitehouse yet.

I'm not and American but I am Canadian and caring neighbour. While this does sounded like the Trump that I usually hear and read on social media I try to keep a open mind. The timing of this book couldn't be better. Bob Woodward did a fantastic job with what he had at the time! But the president contracting COVID-19 a week or so later after its release was unreal. Bob needs to write a follow-up.

In hindsight, this was prolicif

The narration and pace of information was excellent. Facts presented and supported by background. There were some key elements like China’s response to the virus that are outrageous.... I believe the Author would not have included it without evidence. The human frailty of the president is made evident and I believe actually is a fair portrayal and shows he is just wrong about things.... but unable to learn or to improve. Lying is not just calculated but a habit that cannot be overcome as reality exists in his perspective only with self- glory being the only important factor. President Trump is the reason political parties should not be cults of personality... the “Dear Leader” platform should be rejected at all costs. The authors summation that the President was not the right man for the job is supported based on the content of the book.

A view into President Trump that is not partisan
