Thank You for Your Servitude isn’t another view from the Oval Office: it’s the view from the Trump Hotel. It’s a vista that makes the Washington of This Town seem like a comedy of manners in comparison. All that cynicism, shading into nihilism, led to a country truly unhinged from reality, and to the events of January 6, 2021.

Trump’s savage bullying of everyone in his circle, along with his singular command of his political base, created a dangerous culture of submission in the Republican Party.
