I mean, this is the campaign. I mean, I started writing this book in – in 2022. So it really is the campaign, the Trump campaign from the beginning right till the election. And, you know, and I think it's interesting, again, because this is just another window into who this guy is. This is the character of Donald Trump. I mean, you you know, and I often point out, I'm not a political reporter.

this vivid window into A, how this happened, how he comes back from total disgrace after January 6th to winning the presidency again, and also the, just the peculiarness of this guy.

Yeah, I mean, I think it's because, again, I'm not a political reporter. You know, most other reporters, people covering Donald Trump, are seeing him in a political context. That's not really the way I see him or the way I want to see him. I want to see the guy as real as possible, as personally as possible.

You know, when I wrote my biography of Rupert Murdoch, And he called me up.

He was enraged by it. And he called me up yelling. And I said, Rupert, just please tell me what's wrong with this. And he kind of sputtered. And he says, it's just so personal.

Robert R. Completely consistent. I mean, Donald Trump I don't think has changed the way he operates or what he wants or how he sees things in decades.
