Trump Against The World: Foreign Policy Bully, Russian Collusion

Editat de Scott Amonson
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 20 sep 2018
President Donald J. Trump is a bully in foreign affairs. This was shown in the 2017 G-7 and G-20 meetings when he lectured the member nations, the EU and Nato on why the U. S. was pulling away from international affairs. Trump's authoritarian demeanor, his inability to tell the truth, his racism, his bigotry and braggadocio is examined in detail. The anti-democratic tone of Trump's presidency makes his administration a danger to civil liberties. He has abandoned the role of America as a protector of world freedoms. His friendship with Russia's Vladimir Putin and his unwillingness to call out those who are homophobic, racist or anti-feminist creates a body of followers who are destroying liberal democracy. There are three people in lengthy chapters who exhibit the worse tendencies of the Trump administration. George Papadopoulos is the person responsible for the Mueller Investigation when he told a foreign politician that people in the Trump administration were colluding with Russia. He was a foreign policy adviser with little knowledge and even less political experience. He cooperated with the Mueller Investigation and he was on his way to jail. Carter Page was a short term Trump foreign policy adviser who walks, talks and acts like a Russian agent. He isn't He is one of the entitled Trump followers who acts like the president should befriend Putin and embrace Russia. Anthony Scaramucci is a brilliant, articulate and Harvard educated lawyer who was Trump's media director for eleven days. When he said he would to anything for Trump, remarking he would kill for him, he was fired. The question of Russian collusion runs through the book. No evidence of Trump's involvement is evident. At least five of Trump's close campaign advisers took plea deals and at least two went to prison. Rex Tillerson nearly destroyed the State Department, and he is described as the worst ever Secretary of State. He almost destroyed the Rangel-Pickering Fellowship program for minorities and women. This attitude was prevalent in most Trump appointees. The bully in the wings, Steve Bannon, is analyzed in the midst of the dysfunction in the White House. The level to which Trump was unprepared for world leadership created a new world order with the U. S. in a declining position. Race and racism runs through Trump's foreign policy. The white, anti-democratic minority that is his base creates a level of bigotry unprecedented in American history. The global consequences of Trump's foreign policy is a decline in world influence. Trump's foreign policy is creating perpetual damage to the U.S.'s role in world affairs. One of the ironies of Trump Versus The World is it was at the 2011 White House Correspondents' Dinner, after President Barack Obama ridiculed him, Trump got upset. It was at that moment that Trump began his unprecedented run for the presidency. The book concludes with a chapter on how and why Trump's foreign policy is a failure. The Russian influence upon Trump and his campaign is dissected. Russian television, RT, is a propaganda arm of the Kremlin and they loved Donald J. Trump. The chapter on RT highlights Russia's official support for Trump. The president has made a deal with the devil and as the award nominated author, Howard A. DeWitt, has detailed it is destroying President Trump's credibility. Trump is a world class bully with authoritarian policies. He is a threat to democracy and the First Amendment. A lengthy, inclusive sixty plus page bibliography provides tips for further reading. Professor Howard A. DeWitt received his Phd in American foreign policy from the University of Arizona. He is a prolific author with 28 books and more than one hundred and fifty popular and academic articles. He concludes the damage done to America's image and role in world affairs is incalculable. We are a constitutional democracy with courts and we will survive.
