About this listen
Jared Kushner was one of the most consequential presidential advisers in modern history. For the first time, he recounts what happened behind closed doors during the Trump presidency.
Few White House advisors have had such an expansive portfolio or constant access to the president. From his office next to Trump, senior adviser Jared Kushner operated quietly behind the scenes, preferring to leave the turf wars and television sparring to others.
Now, Kushner finally tells his story—a fast-paced and surprisingly candid account of how an earnest businessman with no political ambitions found himself pulled into a presidency that no one saw coming.
Breaking History takes listeners inside debates in the Oval Office, double-crosses at the United Nations, tense meetings in Arab palaces, high-stakes negotiations, and the daily barrage of leaks, false allegations, investigations, and West Wing infighting.
A true historical thriller, this book is not your typical political memoir. Kushner details Washington’s intense resistance to change and reveals how he broke through the stalemates of the past. An outsider among outsiders, Kushner was a results-driven executive among beltway power brokers. He questioned old assumptions and delivered unprecedented results on trade, criminal justice reform, production of COVID-19 vaccines, and Middle East peace. His successful negotiation of the Abraham Accords, the most significant diplomatic breakthrough in 50 years, earned him a nomination for the Nobel Peace Prize.
Written by one of the few people by Trump’s side from his trip down the golden escalator to his final departure from Andrews Air Force Base, Breaking History provides the most honest, nuanced, and definitive understanding of a presidency that will be studied for generations.

I had the good fortune to be in Sweden for Covid, where the Covid narrative was essentially irrelevant as it was to many African nations who fared best.
What a profound lesson for all of us that someone *this* utterly brilliant could have been triggered by such an insignificant false premise and poured his enormous powers, vast swathes of industry and $Trillions of waste into it and never once stop to question the basic axiom:
Should we be doing any of this for an ordinary flu bug where the provenly best response for public health, for medical best practice, for the economy and for democracy WAS TO DO NOTHING out of the ordinary!?
What a truly great book, and man, but….

Therefore makes clear that the American people are not so dumb and eventually they saw through the lies and voted him a second time.
As for Kushner himself just the most extraordinary hard-working, clever and innovative thinker that the White House could possibly hope to have had. He was not drawn from “establishment“ political operatives and thus was able to do things his way, and deliver deliver deliver. It is an aberration of history which I imagine will eventually get resolved, that he and Trump were not given Nobel peace prize for the Abrahamic Accord.
Superb insight into the White House and global politics could not recommend more highly and I arrived at the story as a huge sceptic.
