Not a huge fan of all the "child of god" talk, but I could get past that. What I cannot get past is the crescendo of music after the narration. It gets SO LOUD it wakes me up. Several of this author's books are like this, but there's usually a latter track that's not as bad and I can deal with it. I will probably try to download and edit on my own to end the track before that point, or to drop the volume. But no one should have to do that with an audiobook designed to work while you sleep.

The worst kind of unreliable narrator.

This is what you get when a spin doctor writes a book. He justifies Trump's base supporting him by saying they see him clearly, they just believe God can use an "imperfect tool" to do a job. And then he turns around and criticizes Democrats' behavior saying they act as though the ends justify the means. And apparently he doesn't see his own hypocrisy.

My absolute favorite hypocrisy though has to be the juxtaposition of Sims' insistence that he never heard Trump utter a single racist word in his time working for him, yet in his own book Sims quotes "The Merchant of Venice" in reference to Jared Kushner, a Jewish man: "And knowing Jared, I figured he would one day extract his pound of flesh." Casual, ignorant racism is still freaking racism. How can we trust him to even know what a racist statement sounds like when he makes them himself and has no clue?

So much I would say here, and I'm just too disgusted to do it. The censoring of swear words in an audiobook when you're quoting people? Grow up. If your audience can't handle the language because of their sensitive ears, they shouldn't be reading. if your personal morality is offended at the speaking of swear words aloud in an audiobook, then what the hell were you doing in Trump's Administration? It's just ridiculous.

What does Kate Mulgrew bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

She's an incredible, powerful actor. She made me forget I was listening to an audiobook.

Any additional comments?

Amazing book! Do not miss it.
