Book flood on Donald Trump: Why explosive reading material is on the way

Former US President Donald Trump apparently wants to remain in the conversation and is therefore said to have answered questions for numerous book projects. It is explosive to expect.

So many books have appeared on Donald Trump and his presidency that there is already a book on Trump books. Carlos Lozada wrote it, literary critic for the Washington Post. So it means: “What were we thinking”. And one would really like to know what Lozada might be thinking now.

Lozada had to find an explanation for this bizarre episode in US politics. Four years and almost 150 books later, he presented his “Trump Study”, as Lozada dryly describes his work. That was in October 2020. A lot has happened since then. And should the Trump scholar still claim to be complete, there will be a lot of work to do over the next few weeks and months.

Because a real “tsunami of Trump books” is looming, as the US portal reports. Since the former president vacated the White House in January, he is said to have had at least 22 conversations for 17 different books. His advisors should rejoice that the upcoming surge in works about Trump is proof of the great interest in “POTUS 45” – the 45th. President Of the United States – although they knew that most publications would “at best give a mixed picture” of his presidency.

“It was overwhelming”

Trump doesn’t seem too bothered as long as he stays in the conversation. The former president is said to have spent around 90 minutes each with the authors, dressed presidential in a suit and tie, and even invited some to dinner in his luxury property Mar-a-Lago in Florida. A large part of the conversations is said to have been officially conducted and recorded, not in the background, as journalists call it. This allows the authors to quote Trump by name. A rogue who thinks Trump could have aimed to read his name continuously in the course of the reporting.

But that’s what it looks like. As “Axios” reports further, the ex-president is said to have been careful to have special information ready for each book. Many of them would “definitely make the headlines”, according to the news portal, even if there should be some sensational duplicates due to the sheer number of books.

Jonathan Karl is believed to be explosive. The ABC News journalist has already written a Trump book, spent five hours in Mar-a-Lago for the successor and also had a 90-minute conversation with Trump. Karl, who has also spoken to numerous members of the Republican cabinet, can be quoted as saying: “It was overwhelming when you thought there was nothing more to be learned.”
