I Told You So!
Donald Trump: The Awful Years
by Stump Connolly
Coming in January
No one blazed a trail through American politics quite like Donald Trump, and no one was better equipped to track it than Stump Connolly. In columns going back to 2012, Connolly reports on Trump’s triumphs and tragedies with an eye for the details that tell the real story. With insight and humor, he takes us through the 2016 conventions, the emergence of Trump nation, the Wall, the Russian investigation, coronavirus, missteps at home, pratfalls abroad, his 2020 defeat, and the growing snowball of denial that led to the Capitol Insurrection.
“We all have had to lower our standards for leadership in this administration, but is it too much to ask I Alone not to turn every policy debate into a referendum on his own fragile ego? Whether he is feuding with the media over his inauguration crowd or berating federal judges for halting his Muslim travel ban, his determination to say or do anything he damned well pleases isn’t just delusional, it’s a cancerous obsession.”
