Andrea Bernstein is the Peabody and duPont-Columbia Award-winning cohost of the acclaimed WNYC/ProPublica podcast Trump, Inc. Her writing has also appeared in The New Yorker, the New York Times, the Washington Post, and New York magazine, and on NPR. She lives in Brooklyn, NY.
A multigenerational saga of two families who rose from immigrant roots to the pinnacle of U.S. power that tracks the unraveling of American democracy.
In American Oligarchs, award-winning investigative journalist Andrea Bernstein creates a vivid portrait of two emblematic American families. Their journey to the White House is a story of survival and loss, crime and betrayal, which stretches from the Gilded Age through Nazi-occupied Poland to the rising nationalism and inequality of the twenty-first century.
Drawing on hundreds of interviews and over 100,000 pages of documents, many previously unseen or long forgotten, Bernstein traces how the families grew rich on federal programs that bolstered the middle class, and then sheltered their wealth from tax collectors. Wielding half-truths, secrecy, and media manipulation, they blurred the lines between public and private interests, then leveraged political, prosecutorial, and judicial power to avoid legal consequences. At once intimate and sweeping, American Oligarchs reveals how these dynasties encouraged and profited from a system of political dark money that has pushed America to the precipice of oligarchy.

寫得真雞兒詳實,是我目前看過的寫kushner傢族的書裏最全麵的,秒殺kushner inc。
評分真沒有想到一嚮對政治人物要避三分的我居然馬不停蹄地把這本書看完瞭。書寫得非常詳細,兩個傢族的曆史平行書寫。特朗普的女婿傢族的故事要比特朗普傢族的驚心動魄多瞭。但是曆史嚴重證明瞭富不過三代這句老話。書中政治人物眾多,關係又紛繁復雜,所以要全部理解透徹幾乎要跟著作者的思路自己也做一遍調查。我感覺書的前半部分非常吸引人,簡直可以說是驚悚小說。等到第三代都齣來之後,感覺就是一個金錢與權力互換的過程,而且還全球化,有點讓人感覺喪氣。可以看得齣作者做瞭非常縝密的調查研究纔有這樣的一本書,真是佩服作者的一絲不苟。

評分Trump與Kushner兩大傢族上溯三代的編年史:當財富通過傳承纍積到一定境界,真的可以為所欲為,法律是什麼,真相又是什麼,不存在的。拜托,有人喜歡Trump是因為他是真小人而非僞君子?覺得政客滿嘴跑火車而Trump是個生意人所以不會像傳統政客一樣騙人?請麻煩每天多看點新聞,或者抽時間讀下這本書。可惜真正需要讀這本書的人是永遠不會翻開它的,哪怕一頁。
