by Eric Trump
First published 2025
Eric Trump opens his memoir with childhood memories of growing up in America's most scrutinized family. He describes assuming leadership of the Trump Organization as Executive Vice President in 2015, managing a multibillion-dollar enterprise while his father pursued the presidency. Trump recounts pivotal moments from the 2016 and 2024 election campaigns, detailing his role in developing strategies against legal challenges. He chronicles raids on Mar-a-Lago, assassination attempts, and courtroom battles that he frames as attacks on both his family and the nation. The narrative moves between real estate deals and Celebrity Apprentice boardroom scenes, campaign trail chaos and media confrontations. Trump presents his perspective on Russian investigations, censorship efforts, and character assassination campaigns. He positions these experiences as part of a broader siege on American values, offering readers an insider's view of navigating business leadership amid intense political opposition and legal warfare.
