The Room Where It Happened: A White House Memoir by John R. Bolton

3.0

---

I've been going through several books on the Trump presidency. This, like all the others, points out some of the many, many flaws of Trump. However, the credibility of the author suffers because according to him, practically everyone is an idiot. The book is clearly meant to tell the author's side of the story, but comes off as sour grapes. The author seems to feel that he is brilliant and utterly without fault, and that almost everyone around him is an incompetent moron. That, and his conservative leanings that cause him to not always be very accurate in his perspective, are quite off putting.

There are a lot of tales about the Trump regime already out there - this one doesn't seem necessary.
