The 2020 election will present the people of America with the most important decision they are likely to make in their lifetimes. This "realist" account of the Trump presidency explores crucial topics, revealing patterns of his behavior, his dark triad personality, his underlying motives, and a glimpse of what the future may hold if Trump is re-elected. The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed our nation to massive unemployment, protests and riots over police brutality, systemic racism, attacks against the mainstream media, the threat of voter suppression and harsh immigration policies. The United States is facing the very real prospect of a civil war that could lead to a radical change in our form of government. This book is a provocative wake-up call investigating the tactics that President Trump uses to incite fear, hate and violence, resulting in death and destruction across the nation. President Trump is trying to dismantle our democracy, and he may well succeed - unless American voters stop him in November. The Last Presidential Election by Richard Ryan is a groundbreaking book, one that you must read before you cast your vote!
