David Cay Johnston is a Pulitzer Prize–winning investigative reporter and bestselling author of The Making of Donald Trump and It’s Even Worse Than You Think. He has lectured on economics, journalism, and tax policy on every continent except Antarctica and is a former president of Investigative Reporters & Editors (IRE). Johnston has been a frequent guest on MSNBC, CNN, the BBC, ABC World News Tonight, Democracy Now!, and NPR’s Morning Edition, among other shows, and was a consultant for the Netflix series House of Cards.
“Few people are as well positioned to write an exposé of the former
president as Johnston. . . . The Big Cheat is a guided
tour of the Trump circus in 18 colorful vignettes. . .
. A good book, full of old-fashioned reporting based on
original sources and primary documents, colorfully written and
convincingly argued.”
*The Washington Post*
"The Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist and longtime Trump-watcher
Johnston delivers enough charges to fuel a few hundred indictments.
. . . Johnston assembles a case that’s full of news and startling
incidents. . . . Those inclined to despise Trump and Trumpism will
find ample reinforcement."
*Kirkus Reviews (starred review)*
"A devastating roundup of malfeasance."
*Publishers Weekly*
"Refreshing. . . . Rather than simply tsk-tsking about Trump’s
abuses, Johnston offers common-sense solutions for bringing
transparency and integrity back to politics and government."
*Booklist*
