A New Book Aims for the ‘Team of Vipers,’ But Inadvertently Hits Trump

Books about the Trump Administration have so far fallen into two broad camps: pro-Trump hagiographies ("In Trump We Trust," "Let Trump Be Trump," "Understanding Trump") and dishy tell-alls ("Unhinged," "Fire and Fury," "Fear").

Former White House special assistant Cliff Sims tries something different in his new book, "Team of Vipers": a juicy pro-Trump tell-all.

As the title indicates, Sims mostly trains his fire on the people around the president.
