Description

The only book to explain exactly why Trumpism, its founder as stereotypically American as Queen Elizabeth II is stereotypically British, will eventually come to be recognised as the defining characteristic of American culture and politics of the entire 21st century. Themes covered include:-How Donald Trump embodied what it means to be All-American in every sense of the term, thereby setting up his descendants to form the United States' dominant political dynasty, with its family members, despite their recent foreign origins, sufficiently Americanised as regards culture, values, demeanour and worldview to eventually succeed him in representing their fellow Americans for decades to come.How he actually did win the 'popular vote' in both 2016 and 2020 amongst typical Americans, typical here referring primarily to Christian non-LGBTQ white Americans, given that minorities, by definition, are not typical. Indeed, in 2020, Trump won the vote of 61% of white American men, 55% of white American women, and even 53% of white American youth (18-29 years old), a worrying indication for the future.-How the minority groups which voted in their majority against Trump in 2020 are nevertheless predominantly composed of Latinos who are increasingly self-identifying as (Christian non-LGBTQ) white Americans, and so

The time has come to choose between real, direct democracy in which citizens vote directly on policy (regardless of number and nature of political parties), and American-style shit-show democracy in which citizens vote for the ‘star’ with whom they most identify (regardless of how moronic this individual may be) to make important decisions for them..

If you hate Trump (and Americans in general ), you’ll love this! 1

CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION
The Same But Different
Human beings are wired to build states in the way that ants build anthills and bees build hives. If every state in the world were disbanded today, human beings would, by their grouping nature, go about rebuilding them. As with anthills and beehives, there is strength in numbers and things can be achieved by the group that could not be achieved by any individual, hence the creation of states of various sizes and characteristics ever since human populations first laid claim to territory. Again, as with ants and bees, grouping produces hierarchy and, as a result, some individuals have more influence on decisions concerning the state as a whole than do others.
Human beings are also, on average, particularly intelligent in relation to other animals. For this reason, they are able to formulate opinions concerning, for example, how large they would ideally like the territory controlled by their state to be, how large its population would ideally be, what sort of relations it should have with other states, what form the relationship between the state and its citizens should take, and which individual or individuals should be entrusted with making these and other decisions.
The result is that all states are in many ways the same. They impose their laws and taxes on their citizens, willing or otherwise, and they have a leader, elected or otherwise. They have a capital, a flag, and, at the national level, a national anthem and various national narratives that serve the purpose of unifying the state and making the largest number of citizens possible feel that they are members of one nation, patriotic enough to want to contribute towards the advancement of the state, even at the expense of their own lives if necessary.
These narratives have their own particularities but many themes are common, for example the men of the state being the bravest, the women the most beautiful, people in general the kindest (unless they are provoked, in which case they become fierce warriors), the food the most delicious, the landscapes the most picturesque.
A newly-appointed Ghanaian president replaced the word ‘Americans’ with ‘Ghanaians’ when he recited, “Though our challenges are fearsome, so are our strengths. Ghanaians have bee
