Fake President
Decoding Trump's Gaslighting, Corruption, and General Bullsh*t
An Incisive and Witty Roadmap into Donald Trump's Disinformation, Malice, Betrayals and Emolumental Greed--Just in Time for 2020 Donald Trump has said over twelve thousand lies and falsehoods since taking office, and it's bound to get worse as the November election approaches. Since it's nearly impossible to keep track of them all, two of America's foremost public advocates do that work for you so you can become your own Trump Bullshit Detector throughout this crucial year. This is your one-stop shop that explains and contextualizes what the Lyin' King means to our democracy and world. It's a cheeky, entertaining, and deadly rebuke of Trump's incorrigible "fakery." From his dishonesty about foreign policy ("North Korea has agreed to denuclearization") to blatant ignorance about the environment ("The noise [from windmills] cause cancer") to his inane narcissism ("I'm a very stable genius"), Mark Green and Ralph Nader comb through thousands of speeches, sound bites, tweets, and articles to assemble the best of the worst Trump "twistifications." This Jeffersonian coinage best captures his daily attempts to create an alternate reality--that is, gaslighting to millions of credulous and enthralled followers. The book concludes with Nader's epilogue that explains how to talk to betrayed Trump voters or true fence-sitters as the November 2020 election approaches.
