With his trademark clarity and insight, Sargent reveals the shocking extent of Russian interference in the election, the Trump campaign's complicity in that interference, and the efforts by Trump and his allies to obstruct justice.

Sargent also provides a riveting account of the impeachment inquiry, the trial in the Senate, and Trump's eventual acquittal. He shows how the impeachment process laid bare the deep partisan divide in the country and the extent to which Trump had corrupted the presidency.

Nation on Trial is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand the full story of the Trump presidency and its impact on American democracy. It is a powerful reminder of the importance of justice and the rule of law, and a warning about the dangers of authoritarianism.
