Synopsis "The Fixers: The Bottom-Feeders, Crooked Lawyers, Gossipmongers, and Porn Stars who Created the 45Th President"
The shocking, definitive account of the lawyers and media tycoons who enabled the rise of Donald Trump, featuring new revelations from a Pulitzer Prize-winning Wall Street Journal teamWith his blunt-force fame and the myths he'd propagated about himself, Donald Trump has always moved in a world of gossip barons, crooked lawyers, and porn stars alike. But when he became the Republican nominee for the presidency in 2016, all of these characters crawled out from the underbelly of stardom and stumbled onto the global stage with him.The Fixers is a deeply reported and exquisitely drawn portrait of that world, detailing Donald Trump's historic relationship with his fixers--from his early, hugely influential relationship with Roy Cohn to Michael Cohen and National Enquirer publisher David Pecker--and traces the arc of their interactions from the 1990s through the 2016 campaign, detailing new revelations about all. It is a distinctly American saga that navigates the worlds of reality TV, cash-for-trash tabloids, single-shingle law shops, celebrity bashes, high-end real estate, pornography, and politics. The characters and settings of this book are vessels of a vulgar circus that crisscross the country, from New York to L.A. to D.C.Terrifying, darkly comic, and compulsively readable, The Fixers is an epic political adventure in which greed, lust, and ambition collide, and that leads, ultimately, to the White House.
