The Despot's Apprentice

In "The Despot's Apprentice: Donald Trump's Attack on Democracy," an ex-US campaign advisor delves into Donald Trump's authoritarian tactics and their implications for American democracy. While Trump is not a despot, he increasingly mimics authoritarian leaders, employing strategies like press attacks, undermining the rule of law, and spreading misinformation. The audiobook also examines how Trump's admiration for global strongmen has influenced U.S. foreign policy, potentially jeopardizing democratic values both domestically and internationally.
