— Donald J. Trump praised a new book by Newt Gingrich, the former Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, calling the release a spectacular study of his political movement.

Here is the full post on truthsocial: “A must read! Newt Gingrich, New York Times Bestselling Author, has a new book, just out, that is spectacular! Entitled, “AMERICA’S GOLDEN AGE – TRUMPISM & AN ERA OF LIMITLESS POSSIBILITIES,” it is a true study of what is now making our Country GREAT, perhaps greater than ever before.

Unlike others who write about me, most of whom I do not know, Newt knows me well, and tells it like it is. ENJOY!!! Trump” on October 18, 2026 at 9:19 PM ET.

President Trump is the author of The Art of the Deal, Think Like a Billionaire, and Think Big. Analyst and Trump supporter Rod Martin points to The Art of the Deal, Trump's 1987 book, as an explanation of his deal-making philosophy: making big announcements, pivoting often in public statements and, Martin says, ultimately getting what he wanted all along. Critics contend that Trump's books were published decades ago or were aimed at making money, not shedding light. "Generally," Martin said, "critics don't read The Art of the Deal. If they did, they would understand."
