About the Author Cliff Sims was the CEO of Yellowhammer Multimedia, Alabama\'s premiere source for political news, until he joined the Trump campaign in August 2016.
Team of Vipers tells the full story, as only a true insider could.
The story of power and palace intrigue, backstabbing and bold victories, as well as painful moral compromises, occasionally with yourself.
The story of what it was really like in the West Wing as a member of the President\'s team.
Sims stood with the President in the eye of the storm raging around him, and now he tells the story that no one else has written--because no one else could.
In real-time.
Hundreds of pages of notes.
And he took notes.
He even helped Trump craft his enemies list, knowing who was loyal and who was not.
He gained key, often surprising insights into the players of the Trump West Wing, from Jared Kushner and John Kelly to Steve Bannon and Kellyanne Conway.
He had a role in some of the President\'s biggest successes, and he shared the blame for some of his administration\'s worst disasters.
For five hundred days, Sims also witnessed first-hand the infighting and leaking, the anger, joy, and recriminations.
He saw how Trump handled the challenges of the office, and he learned from Trump himself how he saw the world.
As a result, Sims gained unprecedented access to the President, sitting in on private meetings with key Congressional officials, world leaders, and top White House advisors.
Sometimes all in the same conversation.
He soon found himself pulled into the President\'s inner circle as a confidante, an errand boy, an advisor, a punching bag, and a friend.
After standing at Donald Trump\'s side on Election Night, Cliff Sims joined him in the West Wing as Special Assistant to the President and Director of White House Message Strategy.
