It's even worse than you think : what the Trump administration is doing to America / David Cay Johnston.

"Since he was elected, Donald Trump has diminished the presidency and taken the country backward. With his eyes-wide-open blind trust he has enriched himself and his family, turning the government into a kleptocracy. He has routinely taken credit for creating jobs that had nothing to do with him or his policies, but he's silent about real wages declining on his watch. Meanwhile, nests of political termites work at destroying the government from within. OSHA regulations that protected workplace safety are being dismantled. Trump's education secretary, Betsy DeVos, has chosen bankers over students and their families as she consistently reverses Obama-era policies on student loans. Even after Scott Pruitt's demise in this most ethically challenged, stock-the-swamp administration, the EPA continues to remove environmental protections at the risk of our health. And as Trump's inhumane immigration policies are universally denounced, he insists on building a border wall that US taxpayers will have to pay for. Yes, it's even worse than you think,"-- from the back cover.
