"Among the Trump era's savviest insiders, one name stands especially tall: Kellyanne. As a highly respected pollster for corporate, non-profit, and Republican clients and a frequent television talk show guest, Kellyanne Conway had already established herself as one of the brightest lights on the national political scene when Donald Trump asked her to run his presidential campaign. She agreed, delivering him to the White House, becoming the first woman in American history to manage a winning presidential campaign, and changing the American landscape forever. Who she is, how she did it, who tried to stop her, and whether she thinks it could happen again is a fascinating story of personal triumph and political intrigue that has never been fully told . until now. In Here's the Deal, Kellyanne takes you on a journey all the way to the White House and beyond with her trademark sharp wit, raw honesty, self-deprecating humor, and level eye. It's all here: What it's like to be dissected on national television. How to outsmart the media mob. How to outclass the crazy critics. How to survive and succeed in male-dominated industries. What she learned from the hundreds of thousands of Americans working in all fifty states. What Donald and Melania Trump really said - and are really like. What happens when the addictiveness and perils of social media hit too close to home. How it felt to have the political division playing out across the country start playing out in her own family. In this open and surprising account, Kellyanne turns the camera on herself. What she shares -- about our politics, about the media, our cultural cleavages, political divides, unifying values, about working in New York City and Washington, DC, about later-in-life marriage and motherhood, her place in history and her time in the White House, the future of the conservative movement, and about her personal journey - is an astonishing glimpse of visibility and vulnerability, of professional and personal highs and lows, and, ultimately, of triumph and joy." -- from the inner front and rear jacket flaps. "I like to talk. Then again, that's not exactly breaking news. I have spoken millions of words in public. On TV. In speeches. At rally podiums in front of roaring crowds. Before more modest but no less captive audiences in converted barns, in fancy living rooms, in hotel ballrooms, in wood-paneled boardrooms, on rooftops, and on hilltops. But I also like to listen. That's what good pollsters (and moms) do. We listen. Carefully. Perhaps I've never had more to say than I do right now. When someone told me that a book like this one is usually around one hundred thousand words, my reaction was perfectly predictable: "Is that all?" Put it like this: I like to talk almost as much as my husband likes to tweet. I've been a little quiet lately, quieter than I usually am. But you knew I couldn't sit quietly forever. Lots of people already know who I am. But not from where I've come, what makes me tick, and how I found myself in the middle of incredible opportunities and wild dramas." -- from the Introduction and rear outer jacket.
