This is a fascinating story into the history of politics. We tend to think crazy politics didn’t exist before the last 8 years, but this book reminds us that yes, politics is usually not pretty unless we are talking pretty ugly.
Not only was this an interesting story, it was also humorous at times. We can learn a lot from this book, no matter where your political lines fall.
