Summary: Lucky loser is an investigation into the history of Trump's wealth, drawing on over twenty years' worth of Trump's confidential tax information, business records and interviews with Trump insiders. Building on a decades-old narrative, he spun a fable of how he turned a small loan from his father into a multibillion-dollar empire. This feat, he argued, made him singularly qualified to lead the country. Except none of it was true. (Publisher)
