The Man Behind the Myth
What happens when a presidential candidate pays actors fifty dollars each to cheer at his campaign announcement? Most dismissed Donald Trump's 2015 candidacy as a publicity stunt, but investigative journalist David Cay Johnston-who'd been tracking Trump since 1988-recognized something darker. This wasn't vanity; it was strategy. Trump had been circling the presidency since 1985, testing the waters in 1988, 2000, and 2012. His 2016 run coincided suspiciously with declining ratings that threatened his reality show. What mainstream media missed was Trump's genius at exploiting journalistic conventions while concealing decades of entanglements with cocaine traffickers, mobsters, and con artists. Johnston's investigation reveals a modern P.T. Barnum who masterfully deflects scrutiny, threatens litigation, and bluffs rather than admitting ignorance-tactics that would define both his business empire and political career.
