"When Mark Meadows became President Trump's fourth chief of staff on March 6, 2020, life in the United States was good. Unemployment was at an all-time low, and the stock market was at an all-time high. During his first three years in office, President Trump had kept more of his campaign promises than any president in modern history, and that record of success was only going to continue. Then, in what seemed like the blink of an eye, a deadly coronavirus arrived on our shores from China, and suddenly, our streets were empty, and our hospitals were full. Millions of Americans were scared and unemployed, all while the global economy teetered on the edge of collapse. One wrong move by President Trump and his team could have ushered in years, even decades, of irreparable harm. In this candid account of his time in the White House, Mark Meadows--known simply as 'The Chief' around the West Wing--tells the story of how he and a close team of loyal advisors helped President Trump navigate one of the worst years in American history. Meadows pulls back the curtain on the West Wing as it was run by President Trump, fighting the false narrative of the Fake News with the real details of the Trump White House." -- Google Books
