Ietrio,
Overweight older White men playing ”battle”, in order to find out who is the ”decider” that will send the brown young men to die, all for ”democracy”。

Roll up your pants legs, the snark is flowing and it’s deep。Martin and Burns are two highly lauded political reporters for the New York Times。 From that aspect, this book is a success。 There is a lot of reporting and according to their introduction, they employed every method available to them to collect data from the people involved with the election in 2020, all its surrounding events both pre and post, January 6th, Biden’s first year, Georgia’s run off election, George Floyd, and of course, e Roll up your pants legs, the snark is flowing and it’s deep。Martin and Burns are two highly lauded political reporters for the New York Times。 From that aspect, this book is a success。 There is a lot of reporting and according to their introduction, they employed every method available to them to collect data from the people involved with the election in 2020, all its surrounding events both pre and post, January 6th, Biden’s first year, Georgia’s run off election, George Floyd, and of course, every possible opportunity to bash, trash and thrash Donald Trump。What’s different about this book from the myriad of other political books? These authors give us a detailed insight to the players behind the big guys。 I did read things that were new to me, I’m just not sure how much to trust the presentation given the obviousness of the slant。 More than a few times it felt like I was reading a script for an 8 part streaming video。 Still, the introduction to individuals that none of the reporting agencies brought to light has value。“This Will Not Pass” is worth reading。 If you’re right of center, prepare to be annoyed but informed with potential new facts。 If you’re open minded, this is a book that will suit you well and provide food for tho’t and hopefully, positive conversation。 Folks to the left of center will cheer unless they are thoughtful and find that even the authors are concerned about the state of our democracy📚 。。。more

“This Will Not Pass”, by Jonathan Martin and Alexander Burns, is the latest book trying to understand our country and our government in those turbulent times around the January 6, 2021。 They do a good job。With Donald Trump’s presidency, two kinds of tell-all books have popped up。 One are memoirs written by people connected with Trump’s administration, the others are written by news people。 The second group tend to be better written, by the professional writers, than the first。 This is very true “This Will Not Pass”, by Jonathan Martin and Alexander Burns, is the latest book trying to understand our country and our government in those turbulent times around the January 6, 2021。 They do a good job。With Donald Trump’s presidency, two kinds of tell-all books have popped up。 One are memoirs written by people connected with Trump’s administration, the others are written by news people。 The second group tend to be better written, by the professional writers, than the first。 This is very true Martin and Burns’s - both writers at The New York Times - book。 They know what questions to ask and in turn, write a cohesive narrative。They write mostly about the end of the Trump Presidency, with a special interest on the events of January 6th。 Names are named and the full measure of both the members of Congress and protesters are taken。 Burns and Martin have written a very good book that helps the reader make (as much) sense as possible。 I can heartedly recommend “This Will No Pass”。 。。。more
Georgiana,
The tapes have been interesting。 It's satisfying to see hypocrites get caught out so neatly and completely。 And regarding the pre-publication one star reviews - well, two can play that game。 🤷🏻♀️ The tapes have been interesting。 It's satisfying to see hypocrites get caught out so neatly and completely。 And regarding the pre-publication one star reviews - well, two can play that game。 🤷🏻♀️ 。。。more
