This work examines expressions of personal hostility and animosity
toward presidents—even beloved ones—throughout American history
and their impact on policymaking, politics, and culture. People
involved or simply interested in politics often ask whether today's
political environment is more toxic than ever before. Hatred of
America's Presidents: Personal Attacks on the White House from
Washington to Trump presents an impartial and authoritative history
of invective toward the White House so readers can determine the
answer for themselves. The book focuses on the most representative
and commonplace attacks of a vitriolic and personal nature,
detailing who instigated and trafficked in the attacks and how
presidents, administrations, and political parties defended
themselves. It also illustrates how honest disagreements about
policy—such as FDR's New Deal, Ronald Reagan's Central America
policies, George W. Bush's invasion of Iraq, and Barack Obama's
Affordable Care Act—fueled expressions of hatred and
condemnation. Finally, the book includes perspectives from both the
right and the left on the legitimacy of these attacks and the
victims' defenses as well as their impact on American politics and
policy.
