An honest and detailed picture of the Trump Whitehouse by a veteran political author whom had previously worked with six predecessors of the 45th President. This book details Doug Wead’s many on-the-record interviews with Trump and his family. While this book was about Trump himself, it may have had more to do with the President’s children. When reading, I had the feeling that Wead was giving us a glimpse in what he thought may be a future Trump family dynasty.

Interesting. My thought-provoking mind had only that single word to say after finishing this book. When you put aside the bias, hate and rose-colored glasses that seem to overshadow the reality of today; this book springs up from the ashes and slaps the reader in the face with facts, and a glimpse into the life of our president. I appreciate this book for many reasons, and the main reason being that it doesn't attempt to sway the reader one way or another. Rather, it informs the reader, and pain

Finally, a book about the Trump family with actual, named sources and not the "anonymous" garbage that's been pushed out. I enjoyed every second reading this, which is surprising because I'm not a non fiction fan. I felt I was part of the family and witness to the greatest shake up of the country, (world!), of all time. I love my President even more after this and also have such respect for him and his family. True American heroes.

As others have mentioned here, the book details the incredible amount of work that President Trump has accomplished. And doing all this in the face of incredible adversity: you have to admire the man for that alone. I am not political, but I feel sorry for anyone who is so narrow-minded that they cannot think outside the box that the hateful corporate-owned media outlets have built around us. How dangerous it is to follow something or someone blindly, without getting information from a multitude

So for every ten Trump bashing books you will get one like this, Doug Wead's take on the positive side of the man. One thing is for sure with Donald Trump you will probably be polarized one way or the other.

A really good an insightful book on the Trump family: how they think, what motivates them, how they approach their current stations in life. Too often we get a distorted or downright false view of the First Family. This book makes sense to me because it seems "right", based on what I have seen of the Trumps in many other (media) settings.
Yes, this is a sanctioned account, so you're going to get the good without the bad or the ugly. For sure, Donald J Trump has his flaws and has made mistakes. He ...more

Get A Completely Different—Yet Accurate Picture of the Trump White House
Doug Wead has been a political insider for years and done other political books. He had amazing inside access to interview key people inside the Trump White House for this book. The stories are fascinating and present a completely different picture than is portrayed in the news media about the transformation of our government during the time that Donald J. Trump has been the President of the United States.

I read this book in about a week and was surprised, saddened and happy depending on what chapter I was reading. So many accomplishments by this administration that no one knows about because of the slanted news media and closed minded, sheep mindset that prevails. I love that this book is written with first hand interviews and not hearsay. The quiet strength of the first lady and what she does reveals a heart that is not looking for accolaids but help for those in need. What the media and some h

The economy is better than it has been in years. Unemployment levels are the lowest they have been in a long time, even among people of color. No wars have begun; rather, they have been averted. Trump has gained the respect of world leaders but is bitterly opposed by leaders in his own country, due in part to the liberal bias of the media. “Inside Trump’s Whitehouse” was written by Doug Mead who interviewed the Trump family to ascertain the true story, and is a man who believes that Trump is one

Like all conservative books, this one was filled with facts. Check out any leftist article or leftist book and what you'll find is secondhand or "anonymous" sources. But in INSIDE TRUMP'S WHITE HOUSE, we get the real deal directly from President Trump, Melania, Don. Jr. Eric, Ivanka, Tiffany, and more. Bottom line, whatever leftists or The Resistance have told you about this family, you can safely ignore it. (But you knew that.)

I thought this would be a boring book, I was so wrong! The reader will like reading the interviews of each of Trump's adult children, finding out when Trump decided to really run for president, the chapter about how Trump dealt with Isis is a good as reading a thriller. The author keeps the book very interesting! Just a good read.

I wouldn't say this book was unbiased, but I would say it is credible. The author clearly liked Trump and tried to make him look good. But he was pretty convincing. Very interesting read that made me see President Trump and his family in a new light. He shows the degree to which the media has conspired against Trump during the election and since.

For me, this has been the most definitive and illuminating book on Donald Trump's presidency. It's unique for the "on record" first-hand interviews that provide incite that no other book has yet matched. If you only read one book on Trump, so far, this is the one.

If you want a fair,balanced, and neutral vision of President Trump's time in office this book is the one to read! Very enjoyable book to read and very informative

This was surprisingly poignant and refreshing. A personal look over a period of about 3 yrs of President Trump’s life, along with his family. While some would never consider reading this, it is probably one they should. There are some surprising little anecdotes and insights that really give this book a personal feel and frank look at the 45th President.
Inside Trump's White House is a definite read for anyone trying to figure out which end is up here in this country over the past few years. When the "media" barrages our senses with over 95 percent negative stories on Trump, this book is needed to try to sort fact from fiction. The book felt a little superficial though as it just seemed to serve as a foil to the negative media. Maybe a more in depth look at the day to day operations of the Trump White House is in the works?

Although I didn't initially support him, I voted for Donald Trump for President; and I continue to support him heartily. I will be voting for him again in November. I have been impressed with all that he has accomplished as President in the face of unparalleled resistance, obstruction, and dishonesty from the left. Reading this book gave me even more respect for him as a leader and as a person. We are lucky to have him as President.

Lovers and Haters of Trump should read this book. For the lover, it offers a relaxing respite from the 24/7 onslaught of vicious and personal attacks on this President by the mainstream media. For the hater, it offers a balanced, unemotional, and fact-driven account of the most influential man in modern American Politics.
A measured, insightful, and fascinating read from any perspective.

Keeping in mind this book was written by a conservative writer, I still thought it was very good. He had personal interviews with President Trump, his wife and his children along with their spouses. It was a very positive book on the topic, but still had a lot of new information and shed a very different light on many of the situations that are out there in the news. The chapters on Melanie and Ivanka were especially engaging. For a different point of view than most books on President Trump, thi

I don't usually read political biographical books, thinking that I hear enough about present-day figures to satisfy my curiosity. However, with the obvious deep hatred most of our media have for Trump, I know that most of what I hear are half-truths or out-right lies. So, I decided to read Doug Wead's excellent book describing events and personalities from the first-hand sources instead. I was not disappointed. This book was an interesting and surprising look into one of the most difficult jobs

Its rare for me to write a review of the books I read, but this book is an exception. It was excellent. The author was unbiased in his writing.....a refreshing change given the current state of our biased, dishonest and disrespectful media. Even if you don’t like Trump, you will be amazed at the amount of work he accomplished in the first year he was in office. Trump is brash, egotistical and his public speaking skills leave a lot to be desired, but he is a leader and not afraid to make decision

So glad to find a book about POTUS with real interviews and real insights. Well researched and well written, it was an engaging read. The author has written many books, including about Presidents and presidents children. He's been a White House insider in less divisive times, and knows his way around the swamp. Most importantly, he shared information and perspectives of this President and these times that one cannot get from today's agenda-driven mainstream media. Well done!!!

I read this 400 page book in less than a week. I couldn't put it down. Doug Wead is a genius writer. Doug brings you literally inside the Trump Campaign. He makes you feel like you are there in real time all the way up to the Election and the first 3 years of Trump's candidacy. Whether you are a Trump supporter or not, this book is an excellence insight on the Trump family. The author interviews pretty much everyone that played a role in Trump becoming the President. Check it out!
