Zusammenfassung: | Between 2000 and 2015, when Trump announced his candidacy, he was able to identify an unserved political constituency, hone a persuasive message that appealed to their needs, and deliver it effectively, despite intense media opposition. Salkin and Short provide a nonpartisan oral history which shows that Trump had carefully planned his bid for the presidency since he launched what many considered to be a joke candidacy in 1999. His business, media, and political dealings from this era serve as a guide for understanding the man, his mindset, and his every action. -- adapted from jacket "A Rosetta Stone for understanding Donald Trump's style, mindset, and every action, made up of over one hundred interviews with his closest associates and adversaries over the last 15 years." -- From Amazon.com summary "To his critics, Donald Trump is an impulsive, undisciplined crackpot who accidentally lucked into the presidency. But in The Method to the Madness, reporters Allen Salkin and Aaron Short reveal that nothing could be further from the truth. This objective, nonpartisan oral history shows that Trump had carefully planned his bid for the presidency since he launched what many considered to be a joke candidacy in 1999. Between 2000 and 2015, when he announced his candidacy in the lobby of Trump Tower, Donald Trump identified an unserved political constituency, crafted a persuasive message that appealed to their needs, and learned how deliver it effectively, despite intense media opposition. Through candid conversations with more than 100 subjects close to the President, Salkin and Short make the case that Donald Trump's ostensibly erratic approach to politics is consistent with his carefully honed personal and professional style of information gathering, opinion seed-planting, and conclusion sharing. His business, media, and political dealings from this era serve as a guide for understanding the man, his mind-set, and his every action. The Method to the Madness brings readers into the private rooms where decisions are made, confidences are broken, strong words fly, and not all eyewitnesses see the same scene in quite the same way."--Dust jacket |

Salkin and Short provide a nonpartisan oral history which shows that Trump had carefully planned his bid for the presidency since he launched what many considered to be a joke candidacy in 1999. His business, media, and political dealings from this era serve as a guide for understanding the man, his mindset, and his every action. -- adapted from jacket "A Rosetta Stone for understanding Donald Trump's style, mindset, and every action, made up of over one hundred interviews with his closest associates and adversaries over the last 15 years." -- From Amazon.com summary "To his critics, Donald Trump is an impulsive, undisciplined crackpot who accidentally lucked into the presidency. But in The Method to the Madness, reporters Allen Salkin and Aaron Short reveal that nothing could be further from the truth. This objective, nonpartisan oral history shows that Trump had carefully planned his bid for the presidency since he launched what many considered to be a joke candidacy in 1999. Between 2000 and 2015, when he announced his candidacy in the lobby of Trump Tower, Donald Trump identified an unserved political constituency, crafted a persuasive message that appealed to their needs, and learned how deliver it effectively, despite intense media opposition. Through candid conversations with more than 100 subjects close to the President, Salkin and Short make the case that Donald Trump's ostensibly erratic approach to politics is consistent with his carefully honed personal and professional style of information gathering, opinion seed-planting, and conclusion sharing. His business, media, and political dealings from this era serve as a guide for understanding the man, his mind-set, and his every action. The Method to the Madness brings readers into the private rooms where decisions are made, confidences are broken, strong words fly, and not all eyewitnesses see the same scene in quite the same way."--Dust jacket Trump, Donald 1946- (DE-588)118834312 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte 1999-2015 gnd rswk-swf Trump, Donald / 1946- Trump, Donald / 1946- / Friends and associates Presidents / United States / Election / 2016 Businessmen / United States / Biography Real estate developers / United States / Biography Television personalities / United States / Biography Billionaires / United States / Biography Presidents / United States / Biography United States / Politics and government / 2017- BIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY / Presidents & Heads of State POLITICAL SCIENCE / Commentary & Opinion Billionaires Businessmen Friendship Politics and government Presidents Presidents / Election Real estate developers Television personalities United States Since 2016 Biography Biographies Trump, Donald 1946- (DE-588)118834312 p Geschichte 1999-2015 z DE-604 Short, Aaron Verfasser (DE-588)1193931061 aut |
