It takes 5 pages to realize “American Carnage” by @TimAlberta is special. And not b/c it opens with a fascinating interview w/ @realDonaldTrump, but b/c it’s first conclusion is so spot on as to alert it isn’t just great narrative, but great analysis. amazon.com/dp/B07T178MK2/… 1
“By stepping into the arena and presenting himself as a brawler —someone unbeholden to any special interest, someone unencumbered by the conventions of Washington, someone willing to burn down he government on behalf of the governed— @realDonaldTrump returned the [GOP] to power.”
It is difficult to imagine a more succinct and accurate single sentence explanation for the success of @realDonaldTrump: his combativeness against the government on behalf of the governed. @Hillsdale president Dr. Larry Arnn was the first observer I know to spot this. 3
Now @TimAlberta —with a sterling reputation for ethical, relentless reporting and superb writing— opens his book on the past 10+ years of Republican “civil war” w/ a premise so obviously true that it says to the reader: “Press on. Value ahead.” 4
