![]() ![]() Trump’s Trials is an expanded version of Trump on Trial, Sullivan and Jordan’s compelling and masterful 2020 account of the first impeachment.

Until Donald Trump’s presidency.Ī year apart, two ferocious political dramas challenged American democracy. “Page-turning…riveting…colorful and detailed…a barometer of the health of our democracy.” (Barbara McQuade, The Washington Post ) “Sets a standard for political storytelling with impeccable research and lively writing.” ( Kirkus Reviews starred review) ![]()
