Okay, this one piqued my interest. I really can't wait to jump into this one in order to see how the author manages to compare Trump with Abraham Lincoln.

I'll pass on this one cause I am not into politics and history. But I see that the author managed to write about Trump in an interesting manner, that someone would be delighted in reading the book. Thanks for your review.

Interesting book. I am glad the author compares Trump to the great American president Lincoln. I have always thought there was a good side to him. It will be good reading this book. Great review.

I think a comparison between trump and lincoln is not worthyy..Everyone has their cons and crops...Lincoln is someone who took nation to some other level..on the other hand trump changed the path towards negativity..Bussinessman should only run businesses not the countries.

Normally, I am not into political books. This book however seems interesting to me. I like that it seems to go through different stages of history. It is possible I might consider reading this one in the future. Thank you for the detailed review.

I am not interested about anything in this book because I am not interested in knowing Donald Trump, but I am interested how the author compares the presidents of America to each other, this topic of history is necessary in understanding the current nation.

Thank you so much for the wonderful review!

Thank you for well-written review. I'm not interested in politic historical book. A fiction book from the author's perspective. I think it is subjective. Why would someone compare Mr. Trump with Abraham Lincoln, though? I'm just curious, that after finish the book the readers could find who is better, or something else? They both had controversial record tho.

I really can't imagine how Donald Trump could be compared with Abraham Lincoln, it just doesn't seem right. I don't think I will love a book that is based on the perspective about Trump. Nice review though.

Trump mm not be my favourite person but the American politics are always challenging. I might give it a go. Maybe, I might have a change of perception.

This is an interesting book due to the journal entries that are short and to the point. Comparing Trump to Lincoln is not something I have seen before, and I am certain many people could say the same. Thanks for the review!

The comparison between Lincoln and Trump seems like an interesting read. I also noticed that it is about 900 pages long; whew! Great review!

President Trump evokes a wide range of emotions. I'm glad something positive has been written about him i.e. being compared to President Lincoln. Thanks for your review.
