The Last American President - Hartmann Thom

Popis produktu

Trump didn't break American democracy—he revealed how broken it already was.In this urgent, deeply researched book, four-time Project Censored Award–winning, New York Times bestselling author Thom Hartmann argues that Trump is a symptom, not the disease. The real story is the ecosystem that built him: a childhood defined by cruelty, a mentor who weaponized shamelessness, a political party that sold its principles for power, and a donor class that used him to dismantle the guardrails on their own greed.Inside, you'll finda psychological portrait of how Trump was made—not born;a clear-eyed account of how the Republican Party and billionaire networks enabled his rise;global comparisons to Hungary, Venezuela, and Weimar Germany—because this pattern has a name; and7 proven, history-backed strategies for defeating authoritarianism before it becomes permanent.This is not a book about despair. It is a book about recognition—and resistance.For readers of How Democracies Die and On Tyranny who are ready to move from understanding the crisis to doing something about it.The choice, as always, is ours.
