Summary of Anonymous's A Warning

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 The decision to declare ISIS defeated was a watershed moment for another reason. It signaled the downfall of key officials who thought they could bring order to the administration’s chaos. Within days, the president decided in a temper tantrum to move Secretary Mattis’s departure date forward. This once again threw the Department of Defense into turmoil.

#2 The 2017 election marked the rise of a loose cabal of pragmatists in the Trump administration. They were concerned about the president’s erratic management style, and they made a concerted effort to replace it with a disciplined policy process.

#3 The handover of the US presidency is never easy, but the early days of the Trump administration were particularly difficult. The campaign had expected to win, and so had most of the staff members, leaving no time to prepare a proper transition.

#4 Despite the internal bedlam, the president-elect did not end up with a government entirely made up of flunkies. Far from it, in fact. He assembled a team of rivals that were not tainted by the internal politics of the campaign.
