This book surprised me. Based on the title, I thought it would be something along the lines of Trump's views on cybersecurity. Instead it's more about the various people in government who are trying to make the US more secure from cyber threats. Not very political in nature; more of a straightforward description of cybersecurity initiatives that have been undertaken during the Trump administration.

It's not that this book isn't factual, it's just pretty dry reading. It's just a list of one incident after another that contributed to the dumpster fire that is the Trump presidency. Cybersecurity is field where you will never will be caught up with the current state of threats, and never have the resources to do so. Add incompetent decisions being made to the mix, and you have events like our elections being hacked and our power grid going down. And who decided that hacktivists was a word?
