About this ebook
A provocative, New York Times bestselling analysis of Vladimir Putin and Russia's master plan to destabilize America in the age of Donald Trump.
Foreword by Rob Reiner
In the greatest intelligence operation in the history of the world, Donald Trump was made President of the United States with the assistance of a foreign power. The Plot to Destroy Democracy reveals the dramatic story of how blackmail, espionage, assassination, and psychological warfare were used by Vladimir Putin and his spy agencies to steal the 2016 U.S. election—and attempted to bring about the fall of NATO, the European Union, and western democracy.
Career U.S. Intelligence officer Malcolm Nance examines how Russia has used cyber warfare, political propaganda, and manipulation of our perception of reality to weaponize American news, traditional media, social media, and the workings of the internet to attack and break apart democratic institutions from within, and what we can expect to come should we fail to stop their next attack.
Nance has utilized top secret Russian-sourced political and hybrid warfare strategy documents to demonstrate the master plan to undermine American institutions that has been in effect from the Cold War to the present day. Based on original research and countless interviews with espionage experts, Nance examines how Putin's hacking accomplished a crucial first step for destabilizing the West for Russia, and why Putin is just the man to do it.
Revelatory, insightful, and shocking, The Plot To Destroy Democracy provides an understanding of why Putin's efforts are a serious threat to our national security and global alliances and a blistering indictment of Putin's puppet, President Donald J. Trump.

This book is pure (subjective) opinion and conjecture, and is
anti-intellectual. This book should be in the fiction section because its
story is best for typical readers of fictional drama and imaginary beliefs.

They call the political right conspiracy theorists 🤣 also, just so everyone knows America's not a democracy it's a constitutional democratic republic. Stop saying trump's "destroying our democracy," it just makes you sound stupid

This is a superb book. Too bad it had to be written but great that it was. If “Trumpers” had the intellect ( probably assuming too much ) to read this book we would be done with this wannabe tyrannist. But they won’t read it and wouldn’t understand it if they did. But two years will come around and the people will give him a thumbs down just like they did to his minions in the midterm elections. Thumbs up to you Mr. Nance. You are truly a great patriot.
