This January, FRONTLINE presents "President Trump," (Jan. 3) "Divided States Of America" (Jan. 17) and "Trump’s Road To The White House" (Jan. 24). Totaling six hours, this unprecedented series of documentaries chronicles Donald Trump’s rise, tells the inside story of his campaign, and explores the roots of the division and polarization in Washington that frustrated the Obama presidency and laid the groundwork for the election of a defiant outsider.

"Trump's Road To The White House" reveals how Donald Trump defied expectations to win the presidency. Through interviews with key players, the film shows how Trump rallied millions of supporters and defeated adversaries, and whom he’s taking into the White House with him.

"He’s an unconventional candidate who used very unconventional methods to be elected president of the United States,” says Trump’s campaign manager Kellyanne Conway.
