Molly Bit doesn't believe she's destined for success - she knows it. This certainly helps her get through the countless auditions featuring actors who look and dress just like she does; helps her swallow the indignity of less talented actors landing roles; even helps her endure the industry's aggressive over-sexualizing of young women. When Molly is offered a lead role in a major film, she knows, too, that to seize this opportunity she must sacrifice everything. Even her commitment to an old friend. It's her big break, and Molly becomes a star. But she soon learns the hardest part of fame is everything after."--Publisher description.

Donald Trump is a grifter, fraudster, scam artist, cheater, huckster, draft dodger, media manipulator, a snake oil salesman, and now, a convicted felon. And as such, he lacks character for any position of power over others and certainly not for the presidency. He has spent his entire public life—and especially his political career—pouring gasoline on the institutions upholding our democracy, and every vote for him is a lit match. Which makes his run for the White House in 2024 all the more troubling. Trump’s tactics in politics are the same he used to scam thousands of victims with his fraudulent education initiative, Trump University—which makes Art Cohen’s perspectives of Trump so prescient. Cohen, a student-victim, personally sued Donald Trump in federal court in 2013 and had a private view of Trump during the height of his 2016 presidential campaign. Fraud, a supplement to his 2021 book Trump You, presents important updates and insights about Trump’s persona, his business career, and his time in office. As the 2024 election looms, this book serves as both a warning and a call to action—because the future of the country, and U.S. democracy, hangs in the balance.
