American Bridge posts 1,043-page Trump oppo book online

Source: Politico

In the 2016 campaign, Hillary Clinton’s campaign paid for the opposition research book on Donald Trump compiled by the liberal Super PAC American Bridge.

In 2020, American Bridge is putting it online for free.

The group on Friday is publishing 1,043 pages of its research document on Trump on a new website that was used internally before. It wants the material in public view not so much for voters, but for other Democratic groups to use to campaign against the president.

“After spending years investigating Donald Trump, his grifter family, and cabinet of cronies, American Bridge 21st Century has compiled the most extensive and exhaustive public file on the president,” said Pat Dennis, Research Director for the Trump War Room at American Bridge 21st Century. The website in particular focuses on Trump’s response to COVID-19, corruption, and then various other issue areas.

A glaring omission from Politico. That's just lazy reporting and/or proof-reading. NurseJackie Aug 2020 #9

did a little digging around and found it.

https://trumpresearchbook.com

Not a single 'book' file, it's a website that has links to tons of articles and documents on various subjects related to Needy Amin.

I started digging around, and there is some interesting stuff in there, but I really wish that it had been provided as a single .pdf or something a little more usable without having to go through multiple pages and menus to get to anything.

It's broken out by category, with hyperlinks to longer bits, and more links to additional information.

Quite comprehensive, if a little unwieldy to navigate to specific source materials.
