The Nile on eBay   Why Trump? Why Some People Support Him- How the Rest of Us Can Respond by Douglas Giles

Why do some people support Trump? Why has the subject of Trump become the dominant subject of US politics? Why Trump? considers those questions and connected questions by exploring American history to show that the MAGA movement really isn't about Trump. Trump is a symptom far more than he is a cause. Realizing that simple reality opens the door to a deeper understanding of the particular strain of US political culture behind the movement that currently takes Trump as its focus. There is little new in Trump or the things he says and does. His success in attaining power lies in his ability to harness a long-simmering feeling in a segment of the American population.If you're looking for a diatribe against Donald Trump, this book is not for you. If you're looking for a hagiography extolling Trump, this book is not for you. This book is for you if you want to understand why people support Trump and similar right-wing politicians and what it means for the future. Stepping away from the partisan bickering of America's political duopoly, Why Trump? takes seriously the question of why people support Trump. What do these people see in Trump and why? Avoiding oversimplification, Dr. Giles provides a serious historical and philosophical analysis of the dynamics at play in the support of and opposition to Trump and offers concrete proposals for moving politics beyond its current morass of antagonism.
