Mike Pence

Recenzje

"Every serious memoir to emerge from the last administration has revealed the existence of, in essence, two Donald Trumps. One is funny, perceptive, charming and has an instinctive rapport with ordinary people. This Trump loves his family and country and fiercely guards the interests of those close to him. The other Trump is erratic, vengeful, detached from principle, deeply narcissistic and capable of shocking acts of betrayal. Most people see one or the other, generally according to their politics, but both are the complicated reality that is Donald J. Trump. Former Vice President Mike Pence's memoir captures both iterations of the man better than any previous book." - The Wall Street Journal

"The blunt facts of [Pence's] bravery in remaining at the Capitol and his insistence that Congress reconvene that very evening to complete its work speak for themselves... his honorable conduct during a dark and dangerous day for the nation makes for more compelling stump-speech material than most politicians can muster... Remarkable." - The Washington Post

"intimate. It does offer a truly distinctive window into the Trump phenomenon, from unlikely election winner to unwilling election loser, recounting conversations and deliberations to which he alone was privy... Pence acted so admirably on January 6. Not only did he stand up to the mafioso tactics of Trump and his henchmen... but Pence also refused to leave the Capitol that day, defying his own Secret Service detail and insisting that the work of Congress to certify the election results be completed in the face of bloodshed and death. Pence deserves the gratitude of every American for his courage and conviction in that moment." - The Atlantic
