Maggie Haberman’s book, “Confidence Man: The Making of Donald Trump and the Breaking of America,” released on Tuesday, reveals how ex-Gov. Rod Blagojevich lucked out in getting Trump to commute his sentence when he did, with the then president ignoring the advice of his advisor in 2020.
Haberman, who shared a Pulitzer Prize with her New York Times colleagues for their coverage of the Trump administration, has been chronicling Trump since his early days as a New York developer.
