The Lost Legacy Of An American President

Donald J. Trump was the most unlikely political candidate to come down the road of American politics. His bombastic, insulting, and brutally unfiltered demeanor as a presidential candidate in 2016 turned the Republican establishment on its ear. While viewed with outright ridicule, he managed to eliminate every one of his rivals for the Republican nomination, even heavyweights like Jeb Bush, heir apparent to the Republican mantle of leadership. The realization of his nomination caused consternation among Republican Party regulars. Still, there was no denying his ability to capitalize on the deeply felt frustrations of millions of Americans who believed they were getting the short end of the stick at home and abroad from an indifferent and elitist political class. Trump defeated Hillary Clinton, riding a crest of unprecedented discontentment among American voters, to become the 45th president of the United States. Trump, however, was fatally flawed. Once elected, he faced the burdensome and complex task of governing a country of 330,000,000 million people, something he proved woefully ill-equipped to do. This book reflects on some of the critical incidents and people who were part of the day-to-day chaos and dysfunction Trump brought to the White House. It also reflects on how Donald Trump's defects and inadequacies failed the potent political movement he was instrumental in getting to the forefront of national politics and, if adequately led, destined to remain a seismic force for decades to come.
