Description
A two-time Pulitzer-winning reporter examines the truth about Putin's covert attempt to destroy Hillary Clinton and help Donald Trump win the presidency.
It has been called the political crime of the century: a foreign government, led by a brutal authoritarian leader, secretly interfering with the American presidential election to help elect the candidate of its choice. Now two-time Pulitzer Prize-winning Washington Post national security reporter Greg Miller investigates the truth about the Kremlin's covert attempt to destroy Hillary Clinton and help Donald Trump win the presidency, Trump's steadfast allegiance to Vladimir Putin, and Robert Mueller's ensuing investigation.
Based on interviews with hundreds of people in Trump's inner circle, current and former government officials, individuals with close ties to the White House, members of the law enforcement and intelligence communities, and foreign officials, as well as confidential documents, The Apprenticeoffers striking new information about what happened behind the scenes and in the shadows-and why while Trump may have ended up in the Oval Office, the real victor was Putin.
