Über zweieinhalb Jahrzehnte nach seinem Welt-Bestseller "Hitlers Helfer" porträtiert Guido Knopp in seinem neuen (Hör-)Buch nun die Mächtigen eines Reiches, das den Frieden in Europa mehr denn je bedroht: "Putins Helfer". Sie halten ihren Herrscher an der Macht und profitieren allesamt von ihm. Es sind Oligarchen wie Roman Abramowitsch, die von der Nähe zum Diktator profitieren; routinierte Apparatschiks wie Sergej Lawrow, die als Sprachrohr ihres Herrn zu dienen haben - oder Kyrill der Erste, der als Patriarch von Moskau seine Kirche zum Erfüllungsgehilfen einer Diktatur macht.

It was a program conceived in secret by a group of men. Some were doctors; others were military officers and government officials—all with top-secret security clearances. They called it the Similar Likeness Project, and it would serve as the foundation for an enigma that would soon become one of the greatest mysteries in history.

This book reproduces tweets and retweets by Donald J. Trump from November 2, 2020, the day before Election Day, to January 8, 2021, the day Trump was banned from Twitter. This book also covers a controversial phone call by Trump and reproduces the major speeches Trump gave in January 2021. Many of these tweets were marked by Twitter with the disclaimer, “This claim about election fraud is disputed.” And indeed, many of Trump’s claims in his tweets about fraud or irregularities in the 2020 election are indeed disputed. The same goes for Trump’s claims in his phone call and speeches.
