About this listen
White House, Inc. is a newsmaking exposé that details President Trump’s efforts to make money off of politics, taking us inside his exclusive clubs, luxury hotels, overseas partnerships, commercial properties, and personal mansions. Alexander tracks hundreds of millions of dollars flowing freely between big businesses and President Trump. He explains, in plain language, how Trump tried to translate power into profit, from the 2016 campaign to the ramp-up to the 2020 campaign.
Just because you turn the presidency into a business doesn’t necessarily mean you turn it into a good business. After Trump won the White House, profits plunged at certain properties, like the Doral golf resort in Miami. But the presidency also opened up new opportunities. Trump’s commercial and residential property portfolio morphed into a one-of-a-kind marketplace, through which anyone, anywhere, could pay the president of the United States. Hundreds of customers—including foreign governments, big businesses, and individual investors—obliged.
The president's disregard for norms sparked a trickle-down ethics crisis with no precedent in modern American history. Trump appointed an inner circle of centimillionaires and billionaires—including Ivanka Trump, Jared Kushner, Wilbur Ross, and Carl Icahn—who came with their own conflict-ridden portfolios. Following the president’s lead, they trampled barriers meant to separate their financial holdings from their government roles.
White House, Inc. is a page-turning, hair-raising investigation into Trump and his team, who corrupted the U.S. presidency and managed to avoid accountability. Until now.

It also establishes that despite the low level a despicable man like Trump could push USA down, the very writing of this book, the fully or partially honest replies of even the bad playmates of Trump, the fearlessness and pride with which this writer could do his job, all those who are directly and indirectly helpful to him with similar fearlessness, also goes to show that the structure laid down by the founding fathers of USA, and those who came after that made a few needed amendments , is still very resilient.
That resilience will, of course, be put to a test soon during the 2020 election.
I hope something good will come out of this election.
Other countries, many of them, are already down the drain, with hundreds pushed into jail without any trail or cause, just for speaking or writing facts like or much less than this Author!
Let’s hope the founding fathers will not have to grieve in their graves!
Amen!
A great book to understand how degenerate USA has become and how dangerous it is to the people of USA, and the world
