From Rick Wilson-longtime Republican strategist, political
commentator, Daily Beast contributor-the #1 New York Times
bestseller about the disease that is destroying the conservative
movement and burning down the GOP: Trumpism. Includes an all-new
chapter analyzing Trump's impact on the 2018 elections. In the #1
New York Times bestselling Everything Trump Touches Dies, political
campaign strategist and commentator Rick Wilson delivers "a
searingly honest, bitingly funny, comprehensive answer to the
question we find ourselves asking most mornings: 'What the hell is
going on?' (Chicago Tribune). The Guardian hails Everything Trump
Touches Dies, saying it gives, "more unvarnished truths about
Donald Trump than anyone else in the American political
establishment has offered. Wilson never holds back." Rick
mercilessly exposes the damage Trump has done to the country, to
the Republican Party, and to the conservative movement that has
abandoned its principles for the worst President in American
history. Wilson unblinkingly dismantles Trump's deceptions and the
illusions to which his supporters cling, shedding light on the
guilty parties who empower and enable Trump in Washington and in
the media. He calls out the race-war dead-enders who hitched a ride
with Trump, the alt-right basement dwellers who worship him, and
the social conservatives who looked the other way. Publishers
Weekly calls it, "a scathing, profane, unflinching, and
laugh-out-loud funny rebuke of Donald Trump and his presidency." No
left-winger, Wilson is a lifelong conservative who delivers his
withering critique of Trump from the right. A leader of the Never
Trump movement, he warned from the start that Trump would destroy
the lives and reputations of everyone in his orbit, and Everything
Trump Touches Dies is a deft chronicle the tragicomic political
story of our time. From the early campaign days through the shock
of election night, to the inconceivable train-wreck of Trump's
first year. Rick Wilson provides not only an insightful analysis of
the Trump administration, but also an optimistic path forward for
the GOP, the conservative movement, and the country. "Hilarious,
smartly written, and usually spot-on" (Kirkus Reviews), Everything
Trump Touches Dies is perfect for those on either side of the aisle
who need a dose of unvarnished reality, a good laugh, a strong
cocktail, and a return to sanity in American politics.
He was a respected cabinetmaker and councillor by day - but Deacon
William Brodie changed into a sinister, thieving monster when
darkness fell on the old city of Edinburgh. Cleverly employing his
respectable reputation to access the richest members of society
before stealing from them as a masked burglar, he used the
resulting illicit money to fund yet another life - with five
children and two mistresses. But Brodie - whose chilling story
inspired Robert Louis Stevenson to create the classic tale of Dr
Jekyll and Mr Hyde about a century later - came fatally unstuck
when an accomplice informed on him. Then neither his ill-gotten
gains nor his plans to cheat the hangman could save him. Rick
Wilson traces the increasingly desperate double life of Brodie,
from his first taste of crime through to his public disgrace and
execution ... hanging on the very gallows he allegedly conceived
himself.
