Summary:

Selected as you of Publishers Weekly’s Top Ten picks for Politics & Current Events of Fall 20162016 is still one of the most surreal and unstable election year in recent memory and this arrives in large portion to 1 Donald J. Trump and the millions of Americans who produced him this year’s Republican nominee for president.

As Trump continues to succeed despite behavior that would cripple any other politician, whether it is questioning the patriotism of the Gold Star Khan family or about The Gilded Trend: A Wild Trip Through Donald Trump’s America banishing a baby in one of his press meetings, it is imperative to understand why so many continue steadily to support him. And this is what makes The Gilded Rage so important; it provides insight into the ignored People in america that continue to befuddle pundits and ‘experts’ on CNN and FOX as well.This grippingly intimate and heart-breaking book offers a portrait of the walking wounded who make up the base of the Trump movement. Desperate and upset, these are the People in america from the vanishing commercial heartland, frustrated Appalachian coal nation, as well as the no-man’s property along the Southwestern border.

They are coal miners, unemployed construction industry workers, and small enterprises, who’ve watched their fortunes dwindle with each passing 12 months. They haven’t any illusions about the grandstanding billionaire and his glaring flaws. But these men and women feel forgotten and screwed over by political, corporate and mass media elites…plus they feel that Donald Trump, despite his flamboyant demagoguery, might well end up being their last opportunity for salvation. Similar to Studs Terkel’s Working, having a dash of Hunter S. Thompson, Alexander Zaitchik in this important book takes us deeper in to the ravaged spirit of America than every other chronicler of our instances.

For Zaitchik, [Glenn] Beck is merely yet another American con musician in the P.T. Barnum custom, a shameless pseudoconservative bottom-feeder who’ll say anything to keep the limelight on himself as the money rolls in.’–Mark Lilla, THE BRAND NEW York Overview of Books’A sensational reserve… That is a attractively created and insightful biography–thoughtful, considered, and very intentional about the necessity to understand Beck both as a symbol of something bigger going on in America so that as a person.’–Susan Gardner, Daily Kos’A scathing profile that follows the powerful pundit from a single-parent residential in rural Washington state to conservative superstardom.’–The Boston Globe ‘A great political book. Zaitchik tells [Beck’s story] well and nobody has informed it more soberly.’–Slate’An helpful study.’–Sean Wilentz, The New Yorker’A gripping and thoroughly researched biography.’–Joe Conason, Salon
