In Peter Navarro’s telling—he was in all of the rooms where it happened—Trump’s fall may be laid squarely at the feet of a coterie of incompetent and disloyal “bad personnel” inside the White House. They continually sought to undermine the commander in chief they putatively served.

This book discusses the Principle of Health and the importance of performing the voluntary functions of life in a healthy manner. These voluntary functions are eating, drinking, breathing and sleeping, and if we perform these functions in a perfectly healthy way, we must have perfect health.
