A friend of Trump's for fifteen years, the two-term New Jersey governor understood the future president as well as anyone in the political arena—and Christie quickly became one of Trump's most trusted advisers. Tapped with running Trump's transition team, Christie was nearly named his running mate. But within days of Trump's surprise victory over Hillary Clinton, Christie was in for his own surprise: he was being booted out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn \u003cem\u003eLet Me Finish\u003c\/em\u003e, Christie sets the record straight about his tenure as a corruption-fighting prosecutor and a Republican running a Democratic state, as well as what really happened on the 2016 campaign trail and inside Trump Tower. Christie takes readers inside the ego-driven battles for Trump's attention among figures like Steve Bannon, Corey Lewandowski, Reince Priebus, Kellyanne Conway, Jeff Sessions, and Paul Manafort. He shows how the literal trashing of Christie's transition plan put the new administration in the hands of self-serving amateurs, all but guaranteeing the Trump presidency's shaky start. Christie also addresses hot-button issues from his own years in power, including what really went down during Bridgegate. And, for the first time, Christie tells the full story of the Kushner saga: how, as a federal prosecutor, Christie put Jared Kushner's powerful father behind bars—a fact Trump's son-in-law makes Christie pay for later.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePacked with news-making revelations and told with the kind of bluntness few politicians can match, Christie's memoir is an essential guide to understanding the Trump presidency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Hachette Aotearoa New Zealand","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46844375728364,"sku":"9780306846007","price":29.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/6200443482297.jpg?v=1758839421"},{"product_id":"what-would-reagan-do-by-chris-christie-9781982160678","title":"What Would Reagan Do?","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"book-description\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eWith the nation badly divided and the two major parties on a bitter collision course, what can we learn from America’s last great president?\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nA lot, says \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e bestselling author and former New Jersey governor Chris Christie. In \u003ci\u003eWhat Would Reagan Do?\u003c\/i\u003e, Christie takes a fresh look at President Ronald Reagan’s character-driven political instincts and deeply impactful relationships across party lines—finding plenty of compelling insights for our current national dysfunction.\n\nIn each chapter, Christie spells out a lesson from a different point in Reagan’s journey, then ties all those lessons to the national challenges of today.\n\nWhen Reagan turned from Hollywood to politics, America was at another breaking point. The economy was battered. Trust in government was at an all-time low. US foreign policy was an embarrassment, and Western ideals were facing enormous challenges in the world, especially from the Russians and the Chinese.\n\nSound familiar? Enter a fading actor who would become the 40th president of the United States.\n\nCountless books have been written about President Reagan’s strong conservative leadership. But Christie says few people fully appreciate the clarity of vision and subtle human relations skills that Reagan brought to the negotiating table and into the political realm. Reagan had a remarkable ability to find common ground across party lines—as Christie puts it, to “compromise without being compromised.” Building on lessons from his own hardscrabble upbringing, Reagan transformed the Republican Party and the political landscape forever.\n\nTwo decades after Reagan’s death, Christie shows how the life lessons of the beloved president are more alive than ever—and can restore American leadership again.\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Arotahi Agency","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46852667506924,"sku":"9781982160678","price":53.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/889af2b6d6dcabd0987d1e9b8ed8c55c.jpg?v=1759168204"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.pro\/collections\/chris-christie.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
