As with its predecessor, Fear, the title of the book is derived from a conversation that Woodward had with Trump in March 2016. Woodward contended that 'a lot of angst and rage and distress' was present in the Republican Party to which Trump replied that "I bring rage out. I do bring rage out. I always have... I don't know if that's an asset or a liability, but whatever it is, I do. I also bring great unity out, ultimately. I've had many occasions like this, where people have hated me more than any human being they've ever met. And after it's all over, they end up being my friends. And I see that happening here".[1]
Woodward interviewed Trump several times in research for the book. Simon & Schuster stated that the book is the result of "hundreds of hours of interviews with firsthand witnesses, as well as participants' notes, emails, diaries, calendars and confidential documents".[1]
