How Russia Won

Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin, and the Fight for America

The riveting story of how Vladimir Putin has waged a decade-long covert war against the United States — and how Donald Trump has aided and abetted the operation, upending America and the world. A compelling narrative with the verve and twists of a spy novel, How Russia Won is the harrowing tale of modern information warfare aimed at the U.S. by a nefarious foreign adversary and of profound political betrayal at home. Full of revelations and dramatic accounts of Russian intelligence operations targeting the U.S., it chronicles how Trump, his MAGA movement, the Republican Party, and right-wing media — with their Russia denialism — have served as useful idiots for the tyrannical Russian leader in his assault on America and the West. How Russia Won is indispensable for fully understanding what has happened to America in the Age of Trump.

"The definitive account…a vital step toward a long overdue national reckoning." — Heather Cox Richardson
