Synopsis
A piercing look at how someone like Donald Trump and his followers achieved power - and what they might do to keep it..., John Dean, of Watergate fame, knows what it's like to work for a strong-willed, vindictive president. But even Richard Nixon didn't have the raw lust for power that Donald Trump has. Nor the lack of skill or willful ignorance. So how did such a person achieve power? Suspecting the answer lay in understanding Trump's base constituency, Dean has partnered with Bob Altemeyer, a professor of psychology, to see why Trump's base is so faithful to him, no matter what he does. An eye-opening revelation of how Trump and his followers have gotten where they have... but a road map to where they may go next., How did America end up with a leader who acts so crudely and despotically, and counter to our democratic principles? Why do his followers stick with him, even when he acts against their own interests? To fully understand, John Dean, a man with a history of standing up to autocratic presidents, joined with Bob Altemeyer, a professor of psychology with a unique area of expertise: Authoritarianism. Relying on social science findings and psychological diagnostic tools (such as the "Power Mad Scale" and the "Con Man Scale"), as well as research and analysis from the Monmouth University Polling Institute (one of America's most respected public opinion research foundations), the authors provide us with an eye-opening understanding of the Trump phenomenon -- and how we may be able to stop it.
