Amazon #1 Best Seller————————-Jared Kushner was one of the
most consequential presidential advisers in modern history. For the first
time, he recounts what happened behind closed doors during the Trump
presidency.Few White House advisors have had such an expansive portfolio or
constant access to the president. From his office next to Trump, senior
adviser Jared Kushner operated quietly behind the scenes, preferring to
leave the turf wars and television sparring to others. Now, Kushner finally
tells his story—a fast-paced and surprisingly candid account of how an
earnest businessman with no political ambitions found himself pulled into a
presidency that no one saw coming. Breaking History takes readers inside
debates in the Oval Office, double-crosses at the United Nations, tense
meetings in Arab palaces, high-stakes negotiations, and the daily barrage
of leaks, false allegations, investigations, and West Wing infighting.A
true historical thriller, this book is not your typical political memoir.
Kushner details Washington’s intense resistance to change and reveals how
he broke through the stalemates of the past. An outsider among outsiders,
Kushner was a results-driven executive among beltway power brokers. He
questioned old assumptions and delivered unprecedented results on trade,
criminal justice reform, production of COVID-19 vaccines, and Middle East
peace. His successful negotiation of the Abraham Accords, the most
significant diplomatic breakthrough in 50 years, earned him a nomination
for the Nobel Peace Prize.Written by one of the few people by Trump’s side
from his trip down the golden escalator to his final departure from Andrews
Air Force Base, Breaking History provides the most honest, nuanced, and
definitive understanding of a presidency that will be studied for
generations.*****”Now 41, Kushner was involved in brokering Trump’s
US-Mexico-Canada trade agreement and drafting and passing the 2018 First
Step Act that included prison and criminal sentencing reforms. He helped
lead the White House COVID-19 response in 2020 and led efforts to broker
diplomatic relations between Israel and four Arab countries during the
final months of Trump’s term.”—New York Post Read more
