“The Room Where it Happened” — Leaked!

The book Trump wants to bomb into oblivion

Don Trump seems to have a grand history of hiring people for the most important jobs in government, whom he later fires for incompetence or criminal behaviour. Sometimes a matter of days later though usually, they stick around for a few months.

One such is John Bolton, who took the job of National Security Advisor, becoming the fourth person (out of six so far) to hold that job as a Don Trump pick. Lasting 520 days before the inevitable retirement/resignation/sacking, he wrote a book about his time, taking copious notes to describe the chaos that is routine for the Trump administration.

Titled The Room Where it Happened, the cover shows an oval outline to leave no doubt as to which room is meant.

Don Trump sought to have publication blocked, but a judge, in what may turn out to be a Pyrrhic victory for Bolton, has allowed its publication, and copies have already been leaked onto download sites ahead of the paid release on 23 June 2020.

Trump made the surprising claims that the book needed to be blocked because it contained classified information that was at the same time “pure fiction”.

I have secured a copy, and will read it over the days to come. It has been extensively reviewed by multiple media outlets, and the consensus seems to be that while it describes some highly improper and bizarre behaviour by a superpower head of state, it isn’t the easiest of reads.

But if Don Trump wanted publication delayed until after the November election, it’s got to have some juicy details, for sure!
