Are Donald Trump's irrationality, cruelty, and bombast symptoms of
his personality? Is the chaos surrounding him a sign of his
incompetence? Are his populism, illiberalism and nationalism just
cynical appeals to existing feelings of abandonment, resentment and
rage? Lawrence Grossberg shows that the truth is bigger and more
frightening. Locating Trumpism in the long struggle among
traditional conservatism, the new right and the reactionary right,
he suggests that the chaos is far more significant and strategic
... and dangerous. Taking the arguments of the reactionary right
seriously, he projects a possible, nightmarish future: a cultural
nationalism governed by a popular corporatocracy. He lays bare how
contemporary political struggles are being shaped by a changing
national landscape of moods and feelings, marked by a growing
absolutism of judgement and belief, and new forms of anxiety,
alienation and narcissism.
