It casts a hard look at a president whose training on Chicago’s political playground shines through every bent law and every broken promise.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1596986484\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: PKV.1596986484.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Freddoso, David\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: A well-loved companion.
