The Trump White House faces mounting panic over a forthcoming book titled “Regime Change” by New York Times reporters Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan, set to publish mid-June according to reporting by Axios.
The book examines President Donald Trump’s “Imperial Presidency” and his fundamental alteration of the executive office’s nature.
Trump’s mid-March attack on Haberman, calling her a “SLEAZEBAG” and threatening legal action, revealed his awareness of the project and desperation to suppress it. Allen noted Trump’s post coincided with an Oval Office interview the reporters conducted with the President.
The White House is now in damage-control mode, with senior officials privately discussing potential leaks from Oval Office and Situation Room meetings to the reporters. The situation echoes Trump’s first term when bombshell book disclosures sparked mutual suspicion and paranoia among his inner circle.
For a president obsessed with controlling his narrative in the media, the prospect of two well-connected Times journalists publishing an in-depth examination represents significant chaos.
