I NEED a book about trump that will keep me awake

I am doing a job that requires copy/paste, and I keep getting sleepy. I even fell asleep once..briefly.

I have audible and NEED a book that will surprise, upset, jolt me into staying awake.

already be well known. I just finished it on Audible last week.

I just got Rick Wilson's latest (Running Against the Devil). He narrates it and I do find him somewhat funny. But, thus far it is about what I thought he'd write (though I'm only about a 10% into it).

by Dr. Bandy Lee

She and other MH professionals describe and educate about his mental issues and how/why they make him act the way he does.
In plain english, btw...
She has Duty to Warn twitter account, very helpful, esp. since she/they can respond to his daily behavior and point out what it means.

other books...

The Making of Donald Trump by David Cay Johnson..goes back into his history. as does a book by Wayne Barrett (now deceased) who has lots of info. from back in the day.

Fire and Fury by Michael Wolff..he somehow was allowed to roam the WH interviewing people...
his 2nd book is Siege Trump Under Fire

If you look for any of these titles on Amazon, they will have a long list of books about the guy.
