Inhaltsangabe
We are a deeply divided country.
If you’re a never-Trumper, maybe you’d like to understand better your Trump-supporting relative at Thanksgiving dinner. Over 74 million of your fellow Americans voted for Trump in 2020. Despite all the things about him that make you crazy, they decided, "that’s my guy", and filled in the dot or pulled the lever. Why did they? How could they? Is there any way to bridge the gap between you and them?
And if you’re a Trump supporter, you might be tired of having “friends” beat you up by calling you a racist idiot; you could give them this book to help explain that there’s more to the story. You might even begin to understand better what it was about Trump that you liked, and that some of those things may even be of interest to your liberal friends and relatives.
Folks. we’re stuck with each other. We will continue to live together on this continent. Nobody’s moving to Antarctica.
Instead of fighting each other, we will all be better off if we can understand, and perhaps even appreciate, each other. It’s worth listening to a book if it can help us re-create a United States where we hear and value our countrymen.
This book has three parts. First, we’ll explore our own natures, attributes with which we’re born that inform much of our moral and political perspective, how those are channeled, and how they affect how we feel about Trump. We’ll see why a lot of what we try to do to influence others is doomed to fail. The second deals with how the things Trump said and did have resonated so robustly with his supporters. Even if you’re a never-Trumper you may see Trumpism in a different light. The third addresses what we can do, to improve ourselves, to enhance our relationships with friends and relatives with different views, and even to impact our nation’s political life.
If this book can give someone pause before jumping to the conclusion that people with differing political views must be traitors who hate America, I’ll have hit my target.
