AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER!

VIBE SHIFT! National Bestselling author Joe Concha hip checks the mainstream media to deliver the juicy truth about this important moment in history.

Lawfare. Assassination attempts. Kamala’s coronation. Nearly $3 billion in campaign cash. Liberals were so scared of Trump that they threw everything they had at him. They're even more scared now. 

In The Greatest Comeback Ever, Concha roasts the wildest anti-Trump flops from the prediction race. Walz and Biden swore they were the happy-go-lucky crew, but Trump was the one dancing his way to the YMCA while Kamala screeched about the end of days. She stumbled over unburdening her past while Trump nailed it on groceries and borders—stuff folks actually care about. Tons of books will miss the mark because they're written by clueless hacks who didn’t see Trump coming, but Concha’s got the real

Who is responsible for the Democrats’ utter collapseHow the Republicans took the winning side on every key issueWhy the media stepped on every rakeHow Trump sailed into office ready for the most consequential second term everIt’s no wonder the American people chose to reelect him. Everyone should have seen it coming. The Greatest Comeback Ever illustrates how Trump pulled off the art of the comeback—in the biggest, most beautiful, most terrific campaign of the century.

Joe Concha’s The Greatest Comeback Ever: Inside Trump’s Big Beautiful Campaign presents itself as an insider’s account of Donald Trump’s 2024 presidential campaign. However, upon closer examination, the book reveals itself to be a partisan narrative lacking in objectivity and critical analysis.

Partisan Bias and Lack of Objectivity

Concha, a Fox News contributor, approaches the subject with a clear pro-Trump stance. The book portrays Trump’s campaign as a flawless operation, attributing any criticism or opposition to liberal hysteria. This one-sided perspective undermines the credibility of the narrative, as it fails to acknowledge any legitimate concerns or controversies surrounding the campaign.

Questionable Assertions and Lack of Substantiation

The book makes several bold claims without providing adequate evidence. For instance, it suggests that “liberals attacked Trump in every way they could, from lawfare to libel,” implying a coordinated effort to undermine his campaign. However, these assertions are not supported by concrete examples or thorough analysis, raising questions about their validity .

Emotive Language and Propagandistic Tone

Readers have noted the book’s use of emotionally charged language and a tone that borders on propaganda. One reviewer expressed frustration with the “smug attitude” and the lack of comprehensive sourcing, stating, “By not showing all of one’s sources, it comes across as… making things up (i.e., lying whether intentionally or otherwise)” . Such an approach detracts from the book’s credibility and suggests an intent to persuade rather than inform.

Conclusion

The Greatest Comeback Ever falls short of providing a balanced and insightful analysis of the 2024 presidential campaign. Its overt partisan bias, unsubstantiated claims, and propagandistic tone render it more of a political manifesto than a credible account of recent political events.

Concha argues that Trump’s 2024 victory was inevitable given the awful campaign (and candidates) by the Democrats. At the same time he discusses why the Trump campaign was successful, despite the obstacles they faced.

Regardless of your view of politics and whether you’re a democrat or a republican this book is a must read. I wanted to read this because the 2024 election was the first presidential election I actually followed. I watched the news leading up to the election, I watched every debate (with Biden and Kamala) I read numerous news reports from both Fox News, CNN, New York Times, MSNBC, you name it I would read it. We all know the media outlets have each picked their own sides so unfortunately I have to watch and read numerous news channels/papers just to get a view of both sides of the story.

Anyways, this book really helped me understand how Trump’s entire campaign set him up for the November 2024 win. At the time I was sure Kamala was going to win at one point and also sure Trump was going to win at different points. This book helped explain a ton of what was going on during the election season. The author writes about both Trump and Biden’s (and eventually Kamala’s) campaign. He even writes about Walz and why he was a horrible VP pick by Kamala and probably cost her many votes. He also breaks down the assanation attempt which I had no idea how underprepared the security was. So many things slipped through the cracks it makes everyone wonder what truly happened that day.

This book reads like a funny fictional story that someone would write about how a future election would play out only this is reality. I mean think about it . A very obviously old man declining in mental and physical ability decides he is fit to run for re-election, another old man decides he is going to run for reelection from his 2016 presidency, the media and everyone denies that Biden is unfit for office until his own team and supporters are suggesting he drops out of the race, the other option is facing indictment and numerous charges and talking about eating cats and dogs, Kamala becomes the new democratic candidate for the presidency without any votes being held, she runs her campaign off of all these things she’s going to do but she’s ALREADY IN OFFICE, then she picks Walz who was not favored by any means in Minnesota and had a DUI charge he tried to deny and claimed he was a coach of a football team and then plays AOC in football tweeting about running a pick 6? This whole thing was a joke. The democrats basically gave Trump the win, all Trump had to do was keep his mouth shut and let them sink themselves, and that’s exactly what they did. Looking back I should’ve seen his win coming but overall this whole paragraph about what happened during this election is just downright hilarious. Any reasonable democrat or republican can agree this election season was unlike any other. It’s also embarrassing for the United States but as a reader, I’d like to look at this whole thing from a satirical POV.

*One thing I wish he would’ve covered was Project 2025. It’s mentioned once in a quote but Joe doesn’t go into detail about it at all

Concha's book is a happy joyride through the 2024 presidential election process. It is superficial and lacks any new anecdotes, information or insights not already found in several other current books on the subject. It is undoubtedly funny at times as Concha relates events with sarcasm and irony. If you enjoy sarcasm and irony, you may find this book worthwhile. Nothing else makes this a compelling read. I also realize that foul language has become mainstream throughout our culture and media. You'll find a good deal of that in this book. Some see this as a final escape from the formality and squeamishness of the past. In my opinion, foul language does not make an argument stronger. It only serves to make the speaker sound desperate. And, yes, I AM clutching my pearls.

I was expecting a serious review of the 2024 election. Unfortunately, this was a totally biased book.

Joe Concha’s book, The Greatest Comeback Ever (2025), was an eye opener. It shows how bad the Biden-Harris years were in terms of government policies run amok.

Americans experienced the worst inflation in 40 years, worse than the inflation experienced under former President Carter (1977 - 1981). Crime became rampant across the country. Open, lawless borders led to the invasion of 12 - 15 million illegal aliens, many of whom were already criminals before they entered the United State illegally.

Wars overseas and the botched withdrawal from Afghanistan are part of the Biden-Harris legacy of incompetence. Massive debt was incurred by American taxpayers due to government overspending on programs with little to no oversight. And the Biden-Harris administration put plans in place to raise taxes on citizens even more.

Contributing to national discord was Biden’s embrace of woke/identity politics as well as censorship of people expressing their views on the Covid origins, vaccinations, men in women’s sports, diversity, and more.

Biden made the weaponization of the government against political opponents the standard for his Department of Justice and his intelligence community, including extensions of the ‘Russia Russia’ hoax and the Hunter Biden laptop coverup.

Concha’s book is compelling and an easy read. His summary suggested Mr. Biden was a “walking corpse before being bullied out of office by his own party. Worst president since the late Jimmy Carter. It’s not even close. Maybe the worst ever.” [p.46]

Maybe that’s why Kamala Harris, Joe Biden’s installed replacement, and the Democrats lost the 2024 election.

Enjoy the read!

Having read Mr. Concha's previous books, I was interested in his latest selection. I was not disappointed.

He did a great job describing how Donald Trump waged a strong campaign against his opponent in the 2024 presidential race and had quite a good summation of how Mr. Trump was elected again, this time as our 47th president.

I highly recommend this book.

Book was easy to read which always helps and I’m a Trump fan so naturally I have a bias. If you like Trump you’ll love this and feel a lot less alone. We are way more than half the country.

This book is factual and personal. I knew pretty much all that is included so I would recommend it to anyone who missed the actual happenings.

"The Greatest Comeback Ever" by Joe Concha describes the tumultuous and historic 2024 election between Donald Trump and both Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.

Like other books of its type, I think this one was rushed to print. First of all, it was absurdly expensive for such a thin book. Secondly, I don't think it justifies the title "Greatest Comeback Ever". I guess if you consider that Trump won reelection after defeat in 2020, it does. But, there was so much that happened between the years 2020 and 2024 that actually made it the "Greatest Comeback Ever". Those events were barely mentioned, and only in passing. Also, the book could have used a better editor. In one section, the author mentions making a TV appearance alongside Bill Hemmer and Dana Perino. While talking about the same appearance, he names them as Bill and Martha.

Don't get me wrong. The book was very entertaining. However, these days so many people seem to be cashing in on Donald Trump/Joe Biden/Kamala Harris. Each is telling a different version of the same story. Each claims to have an inside track as to what was really going on in the respective campaign they chose to cover. This book doesn't have an inside track. It's basically a rehash of the same stories. Yes, the author was present and part of Trump's team at several events, but there is no insider information.

Also, I'm tired of profanity in writing. It's not professional. As I've said in reviews of other books, if it's a quote from someone fine. But to insert it amongst the narrative for the sake of it, it's like you can't think of anything smarter to say.

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Always love Joe Concha's commentary but.... 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

...never more than in this book and his other about the Biden 'presidency'. This one is pure sublime from the choice of cover photo to the end of the Acknowledgements section. Reading and listening to its audio (beautifully done by Joe himself with perfect snark, humor, and snide comments thrown in) was the most memorable way to enjoy the experience, and boy did I! If you are of a particular political persuasion and viewpoint, Joe's books are a record of the TRUE US political history you will remember proudly of this time, regardless of what the soon to be irrelevant media leaves behind. I appreciate Joe Concha's hard work, honesty, and highly recommend his books. 👉💕👈

The Greatest Comeback Ever by Joe Concha examines the 2024 Presidential Campaign and how Trump was able to make an improbable political comeback. I found several positive aspects of this book. The first positive aspect was that this book provided an overview of several significant events and moments of the campaign. The second positive aspect of this book was that the author’s writing style made the reader want to continue reading the book. However, while there are several positive traits of this book, there are negative traits. One negative trait is that the author is extremely biased. Concha does not hide his political views and it sometimes clouds his analysis of issues and events during the campaign. Overall, 3 Stars!

Journalist Joe Concha gives a rehash of Trump's 2024 presidential campaign, while including his own often humorous comments about his thoughts, feelings and opinions of the events. It is an excellent overview that ties the many events into a coherent whole and an engrossing read. Beyond that, it is made even more entertaining by the quotes, spin, and manipulations (like Kamala's heavily edited 60 Minutes interview and Tim Walz's war and coaching records) from the biased, unethical, and tone-deaf legacy media and leftist pundits, who managed to lose the respect and trust of the majority of voters. Then there is that mystery of how did Kamala's two-billion-dollar war chest disappear.

Well, I think it has to be asked, how did this happen? Trump has won against all predictions and polls not just once, but twice.
Even Melanie thought he was going to lose in 2016.
So, the question is: is the news being manipulated and massaged beyond any connection to reality or did the pollsters and reporters just have quite a few months/years of misinformation leading them to make ridiculous claims?
Doesn’t really look good either way.
Read this if you are wondering how the impossible has happened, not just once but twice. Historians will be thinking about this for a long time, I’m guessing.

3 stars = "I liked it", per Goodreads' descriptions of the ranking.

Joe Concha writes pretty much as he speaks on TV, albeit a little saltier (which I could do without), and I mean that as a compliment. The book is very easy to read and covers his topic lightly but still pretty well. Concha shows time and again how circumstances and Trump's own actions and reactions show how he connects so viscerally with majorities of normal, non-crazed Americans.

I love Joe Concha's books!! This guy seriously knows his stuff and is able to convey his thoughts and message so well.

I tried the Tapper book about Biden... the bias got in the way. Tapper was one of the people that pushed Biden... like he was waiting for a book deal when that disaster ended.

Strongly recommend this book!!!

Fabulous read, but once again, singing to the choir.

My favorite quote:

The New York Times
“The New York Times, which hasn’t endorsed a Republican presidential candidate since Dwight D. Eisenhower.”

Must Read!

Although I remember most of all this, it's good to read about it all again. We were all in amazement at the audacity and incompetence of not only the Harris deals campaign, but the mainstream media.

Insightful

Learned a lot about the behind the scenes of a well running presidential campaign versus a campaign that was run into the ground. How can a candidate spend the much and lose and be in debt at the conclusion of the election makes you wonder.

Wow! What a Great Read

Joe gives quotes of what the fake news media said. Not only do they come out really wrong, but later you can see they 'twisted ' the facts (lied), they come out looking like smarmy fools!
