Publisher's Summary
Michael C. Bender, senior White House reporter for the Wall Street Journal, presents a deeply reported account of the 2020 presidential campaign that details how Donald J. Trump became the first incumbent in three decades to lose reelection - and the only one whose defeat culminated in a violent insurrection.
Beginning with President Trump’s first impeachment and ending with his second, Frankly, We Did Win This Election chronicles the inside-the-room deliberations between Trump and his campaign team as they opened 2020 with a sleek political operation built to harness a surge of momentum from a bullish economy, a unified Republican Party, and a string of domestic and foreign policy successes - only to watch everything unravel when fortunes suddenly turned.
With first-rate sourcing cultivated from five years of covering Trump in the White House and both of his campaigns, Bender brings listeners inside the Oval Office, aboard Air Force One, and into the front row of the movement’s signature mega-rallies for the story of an epic election-year convergence of COVID, economic collapse, and civil rights upheaval - and an unorthodox president’s attempt to battle it all.
Fresh interviews with Trump, key campaign advisers, and senior administration officials are paired with an exclusive collection of internal campaign memos, emails, and text messages for scores of never-before-reported details about the campaign.
Frankly, We Did Win This Election is the inside story of how Trump lost and the definitive account of his final year in office that draws a straight line from the president’s repeated insistence that he would never lose to the deadly storming of the US Capitol that imperiled one of his most loyal lieutenants - his own vice president.

Fascinating behind the scenes report well told
If you're interested in the true story of how Trump lost his 2020 reelection bid, this is it. This is a deep behind-the-scenes report of exactly how the Big Lie got started, including the events leading up to it, Rudy Giuliani's role in creating it, and its violent aftermath, In broad strokes much of the story will seem familiar because it was in the news every day, but the book also reveals many details that have never been reported before, such as a blow-up finger pointing shouting match between Trump and Pence. This book also delivers unique insights into the mindset of DJT's most devout supporters and why they choose to believe in him. Overall, it's simple, straight, fact-based reporting from a respected news source. A riveting and well narrated look at what really happened.

Narrator is a robot
Returning this because I can’t deal with the robotic narration. It’s like text to word to have a robot read it
