" Confidence Man [is] Maggie Haberman's much anticipated biography of the president she followed more assiduously than any other journalist. No doubt, there are revelations aplenty here. But this is a book more notable for the quality of its observations about Trump's character than for its newsbreaks. It will be a primary source about the most vexing president in American history for years to come." --Joe Klein, The New York Times "A uniquely illuminating portrait...Haberman's contribution in Confidence Man [is] much larger than its arresting anecdotes. Later generations of historians will puzzle over Trump's rise to national power. The best of them will have learned from Haberman's book that none of it would have been possible but for a social, cultural, political, media and moral breakdown that overtook New York beginning in the 1970s, a fiasco of trusted institutions that, having allowed the Trumpian virus to grow, failed at every step to contain its spread, then profited from, aided and even cheered its devastation." -- Sean Wilentz, The Washington Post "[A] monumental look at Donald Trump and his presidency . . . it may be first among equals." -- David Shribman , Los Angeles Times "Haberman, the New York Times ' Trump whisperer, delivers. [ Confidence Man ] is much more than 600 pages of context, scoop and drama. It is a political epic, tracing Donald Trump's journey from the streets of Queens to Manhattan's Upper East Side, from the White House to Mar-a-Lago, his Elba." -- The Guardian "Delivers eye-popping details about the Trump presidency." --Terry Moran, Good Morning America "Maggie Haberman has become the chronicler-in-chief of the Donald Trump era." --John Dickerson, CBS Sunday Morning "An origin story plus an inside-the-room blow-by-blow--a book arguably only Haberman could have written. . . . It's been called the book Trump fears the most--he's 'terrified,' said one former aide--and that's because Haberman is the reporter who knows him the best." --Michael Kruse, POLITICO "Chockablock with fresh anecdotes and insights." --Frank Bruni, The New York Times "Haberman stands out among journalists who have followed Mr. Trump . . . Haberman makes a particular contribution with [ Confidence Man ] by describing how the annealing interplay of politics and commerce in the New York of the 1970s and 1980s equipped Mr. Trump with the low expectations and cynical convictions that would carry him so far . . . Her devastating portrait of Mr. Trump's failure should give his imitators pause." -- The Economist "Maggie Haberman breaks more news than the rest of us." --Jonathan Swan "Maggie Haberman gets all the information" -- Jimmy Kimmel "No reporter has lived rent-free in Trump's head longer than Haberman." --POLITICO Playbook, " Confidence Man [is] Maggie Haberman's much anticipated biography of the president she followed more assiduously than any other journalist.

Synopsis
The #1 New York Times bestseller. "This is the book Trump fears most." -- Axios "Will be a primary source about the most vexing president in American history for years to come." -- Joe Klein, The New York Times " A uniquely illuminating portrait. " -- Sean Wilentz, The Washington Post "[A] monumental look at Donald Trump and his presidency." --David Shribman, Los Angeles Times From the Pulitzer Prize-winning New York Times reporter most central to our knowledge of Donald J. Trump, the magnificent and disturbing Confidence Man chronicles his life and its meaning, including a reckoning with the 2024 election Few journalists working today have covered Donald Trump more extensively than Maggie Haberman. Now with a revelatory afterword on Trump's second presidential victory, Haberman shares the full depth of her understanding of the forty-fifth and forty-seventh president and of the Trump phenomenon. Interviews with hundreds of sources, including Trump himself, portray a com-plicated and often contradictory historical figure. Capable of kindness, but reliant on casual cruelty. Pugnacious. Insecure. Lonely. Menacing. Smarter than his critics contend and colder and more calculating than his allies believe. A man whose path to high office began thirty years before he became a president who pushed American democracy to the brink. Inevitably, Confidence Man is also about the world that produced such a singular character, and how the New York of the 1970s and '80s shaped Trump's rise. As Haberman makes clear, relentlessly transactional relationships, an overpowering survival instinct, and a fixation with loyalty have been throughlines of Trump's life--and continue to guide him. Her mastery of this illuminating biography, and her singular news breaking ability, make Confidence Man the definitive account of one of the most consequential eras in American history., The #1 New York Times bestseller.
