## Description

desertcart.com: Rage: 9781982131739: Woodward, Bob: Books

Review: “DYNAMITE BEHIND EVERY DOOR” DEMOCRACY IN JEOPARDY - I always thought that Trump had surrounded himself with mediocre “advisors,”, that he didn’t know the difference and/or the intellectual gurus would be banished. Not so. The more I read about Matt Pottinger, he could have been our hero if Trump would have listened to him from the beginning. Mr. Pottinger had been the Deputy National Security Advisor for three years. He had lived in China for seven years, and was formerly a Wall Street Journal reporter. He is a China scholar and speaks Mandarin enabling him to communicate directly. Apparently, he alerted Trump that China concealed the outbreak for three months. Therefore, we had an in-house expert who alerted the President. In February, 2020, Trump contacted Bob Woodward at 9:00 pm to set up and begin what came to be seventeen interviews. The rest is history as is said, but when we have a President who would prefer to work with despots, our democracy becomes precarious. Woodward uses flashbacks and tells us about former advisors, like Rex Tillerson and General Mattis (Mad Dog). I found it interesting that both men at the beginning of their tenure agreed on a united front before presenting any advice or facts to the President. Dan Coats is quite interesting. I was not aware of his extreme religious fervor or the strong influence of his wife, Marsha Coats, who approved of her husband going to work for Trump. Not because she liked him or his egregious behavior, but that he says he is pro-life. As I was reading the book, I was startled that Trump actually understood the mammoth scale of this oncoming pandemic and how it could ravage the U.S. population. He chose to “play it down,” for what purpose I am still not sure. Did he think it would go away? Nothing vanished, as of this writing there are 190,000 dead and he, with his usual candor, lied and lied to the American people. It is hard to believe the nation is polarized about his re-election or the fact that he has our best interests at heart. He can still win; the Congressional Republicans apparently believe their best gamble for retaining their jobs is with him. It remains difficult for me to accept that Trump consented to be taped, on the record! Is he delusional? Woodward must have a talented, large staff. The editing is superb. Each chapter is just about the right length. It is slick and filled with facts that will become historic. As I think about this “masterpiece,” I found Rosenstein’s role confusing. I remain mystified about his supporters, who allow themselves to be targets for Covid 19, when they attend his rallies. The President, unmasked, is safely on a stage, elevated from the masses. They seem to have the opposite of rage, they are excited and apparently want more lies and deceit. They seem to be racist, anti-immigrant and love their tax breaks. Trump bragged that his affinity for dictators elicits more productive relationships that benefit himself, not the citizens of America. No kidding. Woodward emphasized that Trump was reluctant to propel the massive power of the federal government to eradicate Covid. It seemed to be our only safeguard.
Review: As if the tapes weren’t damning enough, this book is a Must-Read!! - YES to reading this book. The sequel to Fear, with Rage Mr. Woodward has taken the reader into the Oval Office and backed it up with proof of facts – including audio tapes that were recently released – of the incompetence and narcissism that currently occupies 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. Once again, Mr. Woodward has provided insight into the mind (or mindlessness) of Trump, as has been supported by members, both current and former, of his own Cabinet, as well the now-infamous recently-released audio tapes. Between the coronavirus lies told to the American people by Trump, Pence and pretty much everyone associated with them (with the exception of Dr. Fauci), to Trump’s comments regarding our highly-respected military, to Trump’s ridiculous braggadocious remarks comparing ‘meeting women to his relationship with Kim Jong Un,’ and his comments regarding racism in America, there’s really not much left to say except we must vote in November. Add this book to the long-growing list of authors who have recently released factual, detailed books about their dealings with Trump and you will continue to see the same pattern. I pretty much found this to be another “can’t set down until I finish” book. It should be noted that the facts in this book really can’t be disputed as Mr. Woodward has backed up each and every one. However, I will agree with those who have stated that the conversation that occurred on February 7 where Trump verbally acknowledged facts regarding coronavirus, including how dangerous, how widespread and that it was airborne should have been released far before now. February 7 would have been the right day to release that tape, in my opinion. Additional facts that can’t be disputed are that starting at the end of March, Trump and Pence began lying to the American people completely contradicting what Trump knew on February 7; and now in mid-September, as we’ve lost nearly 200,000 American lives and the number grows daily, the lies continue. I was blown away reading Mr. Woodward’s book Fear, and now Rage has pretty much picked up where that one left off. Mr. Woodward has provided truths and facts that came from hours of research. I highly recommend that you read this book before you cast your November ballot. If you had any doubts about whether you should sit this election out, Rage will leave you with none.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Dynamite behind every door
*by B***M on September 15, 2020*

The more I think about it, the more this book gets to me. The conversations Woodward has recorded absolutely blow my mind. While this book is not as engaging as Disloyal by Cohen was, writing-wise, it more than makes up for it in the sheer amount of data and detailed observations from those around the president. This isn’t Watergate type investigating, but it’s thorough and instructive. You can tell it’s written by a seasoned journalist. I’m a life-long Republican who read Rage because I’m looking for more data on Trump. I am spending so much time internally debating if I can in good conscience vote for Trump simply to stay loyal to the Republican party. I make up my mind to vote for someone else, swing back and tell myself I’d be supporting the party – not Trump – if I vote for him, and the pendulum starts its swing back again. There are things that I really like about the Republican party and things that I don’t like. A major sticking-point at the moment is that they nominated Trump for reelection. I still cannot wrap my mind around that. Anyway, I’d recently read Disloyal by Michael Cohen, which reinforced my belief, developed over the last 8 or 9 months, that there is something not quite right with President Trump. His actions as reported in the news and his tweets have been simply bizarre. The inconsistencies and contradictions in his narrative, the self-centeredness and self-promoting, the lies, the seeming lack of accurate recall, the level of hate and rage leveled at people who were recently praised, it’s all strangely familiar. I’m one of the caregivers for my dad-in-law, who suffers from narcissism, Parkinsonism, and dementia, among other things, and Trump’s and my dad-in-law’s behaviors are weirdly and alarmingly alike. But I wanted more data since I can’t order an in-depth cognitive competency assessment for Trump. (Perhaps we can start a change dot org petition for cognitive testing and an MRI of his brain to rule out physical causes?) I felt that Bob Woodward, with his journalistic training, might possibly have a more balanced accounting given all the interviews he did gathering background for this book. I didn’t expect him to be totally unbiased, and I’m sure he wasn’t. But I did expect him to report the facts and give accurate quotes from recorded interviews, and he seems to have done that. I was a bit upset over the reveal a few days ago that Woodward knew Trump was taking the virus seriously in private, but minimizing it to the American people and had not reported that at the time, but I’d already preordered the book and committed myself mentally to reading it. I wondered if Woodward withheld that information to sell more books later, vying for another Pulitzer. I have no clue. (Woodward does have a comment about not being focused on that at the time.) Trump seems to have cognitive issues, and yet, it is really hard for me to step across party lines. I have voted Republican since the year I tromped through the snow in New Hampshire with other college students campaigning for Reagan and worked a press conference held for him on my university’s campus. This will probably the first general election that I do not vote for the Republican candidate. Truthfully, I don’t particularly like Biden, either. He’s a professional politician who’s run for president multiple times since the 80’s. That’s not a rousing endorsement in my book. (Please, people, give us someone new and idealistic.) And yet, he’s the lesser evil in my eyes at the moment. (And, no, I’m not saying he’s evil. That’s an expression.) Frankly, I want new parties or no parties or some change in the system that encourages new blood and better candidates or lets us choose new candidates if we don’t like the ones that we are offered. (Yes, I know I’m ranting.) Trump has serious cognitive issues as well based on his bizarre utterances. Some instances of him acting as if he had no idea of his previous conversations include when he told his intelligence heads to hold a briefing and then interrogated them the next day wondering why they had done that. Coats had to tell Trump, “because you told us to.” Not to mention recently Trump thought that simple cognitive test was hard and was confused enough that he thought that acing it meant that he was very intelligent. I can attest from watching my dad that a person can have serious cognitive deficits and still ace that test easily. The smarter you are, the longer you can fool doctors who only do the minimum testing. I’m not going to rehash the book, except to include some quotes below. The major takeaway from Rage is more testimony about Trump handling people, situations, and the global and national virus outbreak by spurning the advice of the experts he hired, disparaging those very experts, and doing things his way: impromptu, uninformed, and aimed almost totally at his own reelection. Due to Rage (and also Disloyal) I’m convinced that Trump has always been a conniving, amoral narcissist that Woodward has tried to represent honestly. His conclusion matches what Cohen implies: “Trump is the wrong man for the job.” Some quotes from Rage: “And in an interview with President Trump on March 19, six weeks before I learned of O’Brien’s and Pottinger’s warnings, the president said his statements in the early weeks of the virus had been deliberately designed to not draw attention to it. ‘I wanted to always play it down,” Trump told me. “I still like playing it down, because I don’t want to create a panic.’” “‘And I think he’s going to have it in good shape,’ Trump said, ‘but you know, it’s a very tricky situation.’ What made it ‘tricky’? ‘It goes through air,’ Trump said. ‘That’s always tougher than the touch. You don’t have to touch things. Right? But the air, you just breathe the air and that’s how it’s passed. And so that’s a very tricky one. That’s a very delicate one. It’s also more deadly than even your strenuous flus.” "“Look,” Trump said, “when you’re running a country it’s full of surprises. There’s dynamite behind every door.” Years ago, I had once heard a similar expression used by military forces to describe the hazards and nerve-racking emotions of house-to-house searches in a violent combat zone. I was surprised at this “dynamite behind every door” language from Trump. Instead of being his usual upbeat, cheerleading or angry self, the president sounded foreboding, even unconfident with a touch of unexpected fatalism." “‘There’s dynamite behind every door’ seemed the most self-aware statement about the jeopardy, pressures and responsibilities of the presidency I had heard Trump make in public or private. Yet the unexpected headline from the call was also his detailed knowledge of the virus and his description of it as so deadly so early in February, more than a month before it began to engulf him, his presidency and the United States. And so at odds with his public tone.” “Decision by tweet, often without warning to those charged with executing his policies, was one of the biggest sticks of dynamite behind the door.” “On January 28, 2020, when Trump’s national security adviser and his deputy warned Trump that the virus would be—not might be, but would be—the biggest national security threat to his presidency, the leadership clock had to be reset. It was a detailed forecast, supported by evidence and experience that unfortunately turned out to be correct. Presidents are the executive branch. There was a duty to warn. To listen, to plan, and to take care.” “At the next intelligence briefing, Trump blew up in a rage and began to chew them all out. What was that briefing? he asked, apparently upset about all the focus on Russia. “Why’d you do that?” “Because we were told to do that by you,” Coats said.” “For nearly 50 years, I have written about nine presidents from Nixon to Trump—20 percent of the 45 U.S. presidents. A president must be willing to share the worst with the people, the bad news with the good. All presidents have a large obligation to inform, warn, protect, to define goals and the true national interest. It should be a truth-telling response to the world, especially in crisis. Trump has, instead, enshrined personal impulse as a governing principle of his presidency.” “When his performance as president is taken in its entirety, I can only reach one conclusion: Trump is the wrong man for the job.”
