The Room Where It Happened: A White House Memoir

Description

The Room Where It Happened: A White House Memoir is a memoir by John Bolton, who served as National Security Advisor for U.S. President Donald Trump. In the book, Bolton writes that: - Trump asked Chinese leader Xi Jinping to help him win re-election, offering to reduce U.S. tariffs in exchange "for some increases in Chinese farm-product purchases, to help with the crucial farm-state vote." - Trump voiced approval for the Chinese government's building of concentration camps for the Muslim Uyghur population. - Trump has had a pattern of intervening against U.S. law enforcement as well, and that White House Counsel Pat Cipollone "was plainly stunned at Trump's approach to law enforcement, or lack thereof."
