Critics agree: Michael Wolff’s Landslide is THE audiobook on Trump.

“Landslide . . . is the one to leap upon. Smart, vivid and intrepid . . .” —The New York Times

We all witnessed some of the most shocking and confounding political events of our lifetime: the careening last stage of Donald J. Trump’s reelection campaign, the president’s audacious election challenge, the harrowing mayhem of January 6, the buffoonery of the second impeachment trial. But what was really going on in the inner sanctum of the White House during these calamitous events? What did the president and his dwindling cadre of loyalists actually believe? And what were they planning?

Michael Wolff pulled back the curtain on the Trump presidency with his #1 bestselling blockbuster Fire and Fury. Now, in Landslide, he closes the door on the presidency with a final, astonishingly candid account.

Wolff embedded himself in the White House in 2017 and gave us a vivid picture of the chaos that had descended on Washington. Almost four years later, Wolff finds the Oval Office even more chaotic and bizarre, a kind of Star Wars bar scene. At all times of the day, Trump, behind the Resolute desk, is surrounded by schemers and unqualified sycophants who spoon-feed him the “alternative facts” he hungers to hear—about COVID-19, Black Lives Matter protests, and, most of all, his chance of winning reelection. Once again, Wolff has gotten top-level access and takes us front row as Trump’s circle of plotters whittles down to the most enabling and the president reaches beyond the bounds of democracy as he entertains the idea of martial law and balks at calling off the insurrectionist mob that threatens the institution of democracy itself.

As the Trump presidency’s hold over the country spiraled out of control, an untold and human account of desperation, duplicity, and delusion was unfolding within the West Wing. Landslide is that story as only Michael Wolff can tell it.

Goodreads review by Chris on July 27, 2021

Here is the madness of the last months of the Trump Presidency in all its idiocy, ignominy, perfidy, and spectacular dishonesty. Here is Trump himself, of course, but also his hangers-on, yes people, and the hypocrites who insisted with false righteousness that they were attempting to be the grownup......more

Goodreads review by Ray on September 16, 2021

I'm honestly just so sick of him. I thought Fire & Fury was excellent, and these kinds of books were one of the best ways to deal with the stress of those horrible 4 years. But now that it's over with, as much as gossip about the worst administration in modern history is actually somewhat important,......more

Goodreads review by Julian on February 13, 2022

A history book about events in the recent past from November 2020 to January 2021. It's hard to know where to start, perhaps with "your voters believe whatever you tell them to believe" as Donald Trump was informed by a pollster. In the days and weeks after the 3rd November 2020 election, Donald Trump......more

Goodreads review by Jill on July 19, 2021

I’m not going to write about my feelings - personal and political - about Donald Trump, but rather if Michael Wolff’s new book, “Landslide”, is worth reading. This is, after all, a BOOk review, and my feelings about Trump really shouldn’t matter. Michael Wolff has written three books about the Trump......more

Goodreads review by Scott on August 09, 2024

I’m often confronted by people who are Trump supporters who ask the question, “Who would vote for Biden?”, as if it were rhetorical, as if—-the implication being—-nobody in their right mind would vote for Biden. I always seem to throw these people off when I answer, “I would. I voted for him in 2020......more
