The first comprehensive account that proves that James Comey threw the 2016 election to Donald Trump. “Compelling criticism…lapsed Trump followers might well open up their minds to this lawyer’s scholarly, completely convincing proof the damage carried out” (Kirkus Testimonials, starred review).

During the week of October 24, 2016, Hillary Clinton was decisively before Donald Trump generally in most polls. After that FBI Director Adam Comey sent his infamous letter to Congress on October 28, stating the bureau was about Unmaking of the President 2016: How FBI Director James Comey Cost Hillary Clinton the Presidency investigating additional emails, potentially highly relevant to the Hillary Clinton email case. In The Unmaking from the Chief executive 2016, attorney Lanny J. Davis shows how Comey’s misguided announcement—simply eleven days before the election—swung a substantial quantity of voters away from Clinton, winning Trump an Electoral University victory—as well as the presidency.

Drawing on resources in the intelligence community and Justice Section, Davis issues Comey’s legal rationale for opening a criminal analysis of Clinton’s email practices, queries whether Comey received adequate Justice Department oversight, and cites the odd clairvoyance of Trump ally Rudolph Giuliani, who publicly expected an ‘Oct shock.’ Davis proves condition by state, using authoritative polling data, how voter support for Clinton dropped after the Comey letter was made community, especially in key battleground states.

Despite so a great many other problems in the election—Trump’s behavior, the Russian hacking, Clinton’s marketing campaign missteps—following the October 28 Comey notice, everything changed. Right now Davis shows with organic, indisputable data how Comey’s Oct letter price Hillary Clinton the presidency and America converted the course of history in the blink of an eyes.
