"How the hell did we get here? How did a New York real-estate guy turned reality TV star get elected twice as president of the United States by a deeply polarized electorate? To answer that question, Donald Trump’s shortest-lived hire as press secretary—the irrepressible Anthony Scaramucci—offers three others, which explain the populist backlash that brought Trump (and himself, briefly) to power in 2016. Now estranged from the MAGA movement, Scaramucci has written a compelling early draft of the history of our times—what he calls history from “the Money Point of View.” Like its author, All the Wrong Moves is smart, sharp, and self-aware."
—Niall Ferguson, The Hoover Institution, Stanford University, author of The Ascent of Money


"Thoughtful, witty, and always provocative, this is a wonderfully insightful reflection on the Trump phenomenon. Anthony Scaramucci takes the long view, looking back into American history for the roots of Trumpism, and identifies three crucial moments that shaped the political landscape of the 2020s. From the embrace of globalization and the rise of China to the invasion of Iraq and the Wall Street bailouts, this is an essential guide to what’s gone wrong with America. It’s an irresistibly engaging, lively, and clever read—just as you’d expect from such a gifted communicator."
—Dominic Sandbrook, co-host of The Rest Is History

“Establishment elites got some big things wrong both at home and abroad, and the rise of populism and Donald Trump are two of the results. What’s more, divisions in this country could well increase as jobs disappear and the American dream fades for many. Anthony Scaramucci has given us an intellectually honest, unvarnished book that explains how his thinking has changed--and why yours should as well.”
—Richard Haass, President Emeritus of the Council on Foreign Relations

“Scaramucci’s deep knowledge of the forces that have created our current political situation is presented here with great clarity and a sharp wit. “
—Stanley Tucci, author of Taste

"A provocative and heartfelt rethink of how a few critical policy decisions, seemingly reasonable at the time, might account for the dire political straits America finds itself in today. Clear and engaging, with frequent references to historical analogies, Scaramucci challenges the usual consensus that the Trump phenomenon is mainly about the idiosyncratic views of one individual."
—Kenneth S. Rogoff, Maurits C. Boas Chair of International Economics at Harvard University

"Voila: Here’s what Anthony Scaramucci gets exactly right in his newest book: He has the courage to say he was wrong and sketches out how we all need to come to terms with the errors we have made as a country if we want to get past the devastation wrought by Donald Trump over the last decade. There is no easy fix, but the United States—built on money and moxie and also mistakes and at a critical crossroads—needs as many good ideas as possible to get back to our better angels, and this is a critical primer on how to do just that."
—Kara Swisher, author of Burn Book

"All the Wrong Moves is a profound, compelling, and deeply thought-provoking book. Drawing on the past centuries of America’s rich history, this is a story filled with razor-sharp analysis, wisdom, and pragmatic common sense. Authoritative, incisive, often disturbing, but ultimately offering a path for redemption, it needs to be read by as wide an audience as possible."
—James Holland, author of Normandy '44
