Collusion: Secret Meetings, Dirty Money, and How Russia Helped Donald Trump Win - Brossura

“If you thought Michael Wolff’s book was dynamite, just wait till you read Luke Harding’s Collusion. Utterly damning. Devastating. Meticulously, scrupulously researched, leaves no room for doubt.... [A] detailed exposé of [the] dark world of spies, bribes, mega money-laundering, Russian mafia and Trump cronies. Like a non-fiction John Le Carré. Mesmerising.” —Richard Dawkins

“[Collusion] should be read by every conservative in this country.” —Glenn Beck

“Essential...I wish everyone who is skeptical that Russia has leverage over Trump would read it.... Harding, the former Moscow bureau chief of The Guardian, has been reporting on shady characters like Paul Manafort, the former Trump campaign chairman who was indicted last month, long before Trump announced his candidacy.... There’s no longer any serious question that there was cooperation between Trump’s campaign and Russia, but the extent of the cooperation, and the precise nature of it, remains opaque.... [Collusion] is invaluable in collating the overwhelming evidence of a web of relationships between the Kremlin, Trump and members of Trump’s circle.” —Michelle Goldberg, The New York Times

“Harding...presents a powerful case for Russian interference, and Trump campaign collusion, by collecting years of reporting on Trump’s connections to Russia and putting it all together in a coherent narrative. It’s the sheer breadth of connections, many of them dating back 20 years or more, between Trump and his associates and Russians with close ties to the Kremlin that put the lie to Trump’s repeated claims that he has no ties to Russia.” —The Nation

“A superb piece of work, wonderfully done and essential reading for anyone who cares for his country. Amazing research and brilliantly collated.” —John le Carré
 
“Damning indeed.... Harding is at his best connecting dots that may not always be obvious.... If readers emerge from this fast-paced narrative convinced that the Trump White House is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Russian oligarchs, then there’s good reason for it.” —Kirkus Reviews
