Wead tells Randy that he was "astonished" by the love he witnessed between Donald Trump and the First Lady, Melania. "They hold hands, I've got pictures in by book of their arms around each other."
It took about a year of internal debate by the Trump family before finally deciding to allow Wead the access he was granted for the book, "I sat down with Ivanka [Trump] and I said 'you know, in a couple hundred years they're still going to be writing books about the Trump family, and whether they're hated, like the Borgias, or some other family of power and wealth, or whether they're beloved like the Kennedys. It all depends on primary sources, not anonymous sources."
Wead says Trump, "was weighing me for almost a year before he decided. Then when he decided, he was all-in. A light switch went off."
