Time Donald Trump 2

This book takes a social science approach to address two related questions: (1) what does Donald Trump say on Twitter? and (2) why? Since entering the 2016 Presidential Election, Donald Trump’s tweets have been a major part of his communications strategy with the public. While the popular media has devoted considerable attention to selected tweets, it is less clear what those selected tweets tell us about Trump the businessman, the political candidate, and, finally, the President of the United States. We argue that to fully understand Trump, we must take a more comprehensive approach to examining all of his activities on Twitter. Overall, our analysis presents a strikingly complex picture of Trump and how he uses Twitter. Not only has his pattern of tweets changed over time, we find that Trump’s use of Twitter is more deliberate than he has been given credit. Like most other politicians, Trump is strategically-minded about his presence on social media.

The truth behind how well-funded hard-left extremists, the mainstream media, and Obama/Clinton holdovers in the government bureaucracy have combined with clandestine forces within the US intelligence apparatus – the “Deep State” -- to block and undermine Trump’s every move. At 2:45 a.m. ET on Nov. 8, 2016, television networks announced to a stunned nation that Pennsylvania’s 20 electoral had gone for Donald Trump, making him the president-elect of the United States, defying all odds in a surreal victory that sent the Deep State into an immediate sense of panic. By dawn on Nov. 9, 2016, the Deep State forces that expected Hillary Clinton to continue the leftist politics of Barack Obama were already planning Donald Trump’s demise. What emerged from the hard left was a political strategy calculated to block Donald Trump from being inaugurated, and if that failed, to make sure Donald Trump would not long serve out his term as 45th President of the United States. Investigative journalist and conspiracy expert Jerome Corsi goes into shocking detail about how this Deep State or Shadow Government secretly wields power in Washington, and why the Deep State is dangerous – capable of assassinating Trump, if efforts to impeach him or to force him to resign fail. Corsi will also define a three-point strategy Trump -- as a political independent, opposed both by Democratic Party enemies and GOP establishment -- must employ to stay in office and have a chance of a successful first term in office.

OVER 2 MILLION COPIES SOLD RUNAWAY #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER SENSATIONAL #1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER “Explosive.”—The Washington Post “Devastating.”—The New Yorker “Unprecedented.”—CNN “Great reporting...astute.”—Hugh Hewitt THE INSIDE STORY ON PRESIDENT TRUMP, AS ONLY BOB WOODWARD CAN TELL IT With authoritative reporting honed through nine presidencies, author Bob Woodward reveals in unprecedented detail the harrowing life inside President Donald Trump’s White House and precisely how he makes decisions on major foreign and domestic policies. Fear is the most intimate portrait of a sitting president ever published during the president’s first years in office. The focus is on the explosive debates and the decision-making in the Oval Office, the Situation Room, Air Force One and the White House residence. Woodward draws from hundreds of hours of interviews with firsthand sources, meeting notes, personal diaries, files and documents. Often with day-by-day details, dialogue and documentation, Fear tracks key foreign issues from North Korea, Afghanistan, Iran, the Middle East, NATO, China and Russia. It reports in-depth on Trump’s key domestic issues particularly trade and tariff disputes, immigration, tax legislation, the Paris Climate Accord and the racial violence in Charlottesville in 2017. Fear presents vivid details of the negotiations between Trump’s attorneys and Robert Mueller, the special counsel in the Russia investigation, laying out for the first time the meeting-by-meeting discussions and strategies. It discloses how senior Trump White House officials joined together to steal draft orders from the president’s Oval Office desk so he would not issue directives that would jeopardize top secret intelligence operations. “It was no less than an administrative coup d’état,” Woodward writes, “a nervous breakdown of the executive power of the most powerful county in the world.”

Love him or hate him, Donald Trump is a household name in 2016. But how exactly did the shrewd business tycoon and the 45th US President get to where he is today? Donald Trump is one of the today's best examples of a success story. Driven, unrelenting, and focused, he seems to overcome even the most difficult business odds. Donald Trump was rumored to be a candidate for presidency long before he came into the scene this year. Indeed, in 1988, the famous talk-show host Oprah Winfrey asked Trump about his possible White House bid. At that time Trump said he probably wouldn't run, however, if he ran, he would win the race. The striking part is how he sounded so similar in that interview as compared to today. For example, his constant complaints about other countries "ripping" off the US and his opinions on the free-trade agreements have not changed at all. Trump, now the president of the United States, often make a similar statement about Mexico, whose government he often accuses of sending criminals across the US border. Should you hate him or love him? For that, you need to learn who Donald Trump is and what are those life changing experiences that made him the way he is. This book is a brief biography about Donald Trump so that you know the 45th president of the US better than what you do now.

On the hugely successful hit reality TV show The Apprentice, Donald Trump tells his contenders that location and pricing are supremely significant. But in his own life, there have been other maxims: Do whatever it takes to win. Don't spare the chutzpah. Always use the superlative. Make everything into an advertisement for yourself. Whatever happens, always claim victory. Following these personal commandments, he has turned bragging, self-inflation, and showing off into competitive advantages that have brought him national and international renown. In Donald Trump: Master Apprentice, best-selling author Gwenda Blair recounts a true-life history with more twists and turns than any television producer could possibly imagine. Towering skyscrapers and glittering casinos, a luxury airline and a football-field-size yacht, steamy affairs and bitter lawsuits, near bankruptcy and stormy feuds -- all this and more are part of the life of Trump. An adaptation and update of her definitive biography, The Trumps, this new book provides fresh material on Donald Trump's brushes with bankruptcy, mammoth construction projects, and ever-expanding place in American life. Drawing on recent interviews with the celebrated real estate magnate, his associates, his rivals, and contestants from his television show, Blair offers new insight into the man who seems to have it all. For the first time, we also get a glimpse of the person who will ultimately decide the fate of the Trump brand: Donald Trump, Jr., the real-life apprentice who hopes to put his own imprint on his father's empire.

Winner, 2020 Best Book Award, Law Category, given by the American Book Fest Examines immigration enforcement and discretion during the first eighteen months of the Trump administration Within days of taking office, President Donald J. Trump published or announced changes to immigration law and policy. These changes have profoundly shaken the lives and well-being of immigrants and their families, many of whom have been here for decades, and affected the work of the attorneys and advocates who represent or are themselves part of the immigrant community. Banned examines the tool of discretion, or the choice a government has to protect, detain, or deport immigrants, and describes how the Trump administration has wielded this tool in creating and executing its immigration policy. Banned combines personal interviews, immigration law, policy analysis, and case studies to answer the following questions: (1) what does immigration enforcement and discretion look like in the time of Trump? (2) who is affected by changes to immigration enforcement and discretion?; (3) how have individuals and families affected by immigration enforcement under President Trump changed their own perceptions about the future?; and (4) how do those informed about immigration enforcement and discretion describe the current state of affairs and perceive the future? Shoba Sivaprasad Wadhia pairs the contents of these interviews with a robust analysis of immigration enforcement and discretion during the first eighteen months of the Trump administration and offers recommendations for moving forward. The story of immigration and the role immigrants play in the United States is significant. The government has the tools to treat those seeking admission, refuge, or opportunity in the United States humanely. Banned offers a passionate reminder of the responsibility we all have to protect America’s identity as a nation of immigrants.

The book deals with a massive needed shift in economic theory and practice. This need is generally recognized but very few clues to it are present in the current culture of politics or economics, financial analyses or public discourse. Profit is recognized by all as being at the heart of the current economic problem. Think of election or government promises regarding minimum wages or women's wages, or general increasing of purchasing power. The problem of profit and its distribution, indeed, lurked behind most of the bitter rhetoric prior to the nominations and in the subsequent debates between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump. President Trump has hopes about economic growth, but on the issue of profit he shares a common muddle. A quiet but serious pause over a non-stupid view of profit exposes the silliness, the abusiveness, the immorality. The dominant content of the book is a pedagogy of the new view of profit, which depends on the reluctant admission by the community of economists that there is a deep flaw in present efforts at economic analysis. That flaw has been a topic in the writings of some of the great economists of the twentieth century. But the leading searcher of the century was Joseph Schumpeter, who pushed for a new view in two highly respected books. He writes of the crisis in terms of "crossing the Rubicon" to arrive at dynamic analysis, but he failed to develop refined scientific distinctions in the productive process. The Russian economist, Michael Kalecki came nearer such refinement, and the Cambridge economist Joan Robinson recognized this. What is the common muddle? What is the flaw? It is best to point simply to the newness of the view by a parallel with Newton's transformation of astronomy through his theory of gravitation. Picture, then, Newton sprawled under the apple tree, looking up at apples dangling and also the moon visible through the leaves. His leap to gravitation is symbolized by his being struck-in both senses, so to speak-by a falling apple. But the full power of his view comes forth in the question, "Why does the moon not also fall?" The culture of Europe at the time was still haunted by a division of bodies into earthly and heavenly, the latter being radically different, constituted by quintessential matter. There was thus a prevalent mythology of two types of body. Newton leaped from two types to one through his achievement. The present state of economics is a very fixed culture of one-flow analysis, symbolized in the culture by talk of GDP. The leap of Lonergan's invention was to identify, after a more than a decade of historical and theoretic work, the historical reality and scientific identity of two flows. So, very simply, where Newton leaped from 2 to 1, Lonergan leaped from 1 to 2. The operable heuristic comes from a clear leap, e.g., from viewing economic output as GDP to arrive at an empirically defined GDP' and GDP," where the single prime points to consumer goods and the double prime points to producer goods. The leap seems simple but it requires very precise thinking about the relations between the two economic flows. The book is written to attract popular attention. It is, however, a pointer to a new tradition of introductory texts to economics from grade 11 on. That tradition is to be nudged into existence by a journalism that picks up on this book. It challenges the policy making of both the Republican and the Democratic parties and their parallels round the world. It is directed at the U.S. President strategically so that, as the first paragraph of the Preface states, he may be forced to nudge various departments of government to take the new direction seriously. Eventually the madness of present Wall Street cultures will be identified with precision and corrected slowly by legal and economic pressures.

What roles do King Nebuchadnezzar, ruler of ancient Babylon, and Donald J. Trump, 45th president of the United States, play in God furthering His kingdom? In Two Men from Babylon, Wallace Henley brings into perspective how God uses unlikely leaders to bring about His plans and purpose. Here is a masterfully constructed book that tears the camouflage off our times and looks intensely at what is going on in our crazy era on the eve of a year of destiny—and perhaps for civilization itself. Here you will: Consider the possibility that God made Donald Trump president Learn where the “age of Trump” might fit into history Get a feel for the "White House Mystique” Sense the spiritual atmosphere of the Oval Office Discover the strategic role of the church related to politics Understand why places of great power are vulnerable to demonic attack . . . and much more The heart of this book is found in two Scripture passages, “It is God who changes the times and the epochs; He removes kings and establishes kings” (Daniel 2:21); and “This Gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all the nations and then the end will come” (Matthew 24:14). Two Men from Babylon summarizes the truth of these verses in revealing that God has grand purposes for time and history; there are manifestations of the kingdom that appear throughout finite time and history; the church is the primary agent for the expansion of this kingdom; nations are of strategic importance in the fulfillment of God’s plan; and it is God who establishes and removes the leaders of those nations. Thus, the Lord of History is the focus of this book, but Nebuchadnezzar and Donald Trump play an essential role in His story.

…Let’s go further on with the shooting star of the American politics, with this strong controversy contender for the presidency of the United States, Donald J. Trump… What is more than obvious that the present personality include the subject mythology into him, the hero of multitude, a hero of plus minus of media, but far away of absolutes, i.e., an order of perfect reality, based upon just of itself… We have to admit in human the basic reality of relativity, by interpreting an event, a process, through the eyes and of the mind as a subjective being, as an emotional being, or as rational being conditioned by many circumstances… Therefore, we have to see the politics of Mr. Trump as Trump – politics, the economy of Mr. Trump as Trump-o-NOMICS and the conservatives of Mr. Trump as America First! In the same time, our Media becomes a Mediology, i.e., a philosophy of media, by answering any time to the basic questions of Who? What? When? Where? Why? Through the causality of events, their effectiveness and re-entering again into another circle of causes… Our MEDIOLOGY must be a philosophy of Media, by putting in abstract events, enters – encountering and so on, by reinterpreting an event through the science of anthropological factors, or sapient-o-logical achievements through the Species itself … For sure a mediologist must be aware in beforehand about the topics in its deepening, in its trilogy form of genesis – evolution – fulfillment… Mediologist

AMERICAN PRESIDENTS VOLUME 2: Barack Obama and Donald Trump - 2 Books in 1!Featuring...Barack ObamaDonald Trump 2 Great Biographies In 1! Barack Obama Barack Obama was born to a single mother and absent father in 1961. The America around him was still racially segregated and divided. Large parts of his childhood were spent in the care of his grandparents in Hawaii, his mother having left America for a new husband and job in Indonesia. Barack Obama, despite the disadvantages that life threw at him, worked hard and eventually enrolled to study law at Harvard University. After graduating with honours he settled in Chicago where he met Michelle Robinson. Like Barack Obama she was a young lawyer who was keen to address the racial disadvantages that were still present in American society. Following their marriage, and the arrival of two daughters, Barack Obama was elected as Illinois Senator and then as the 44th President of the United States of America. He became the first African American to hold this role. Obama used his position to push America into becoming a more equal and fairer society. Initiatives such as Obamacare and the repeal of the Don't Ask, Don't Tell ban on gay and lesbians serving in the military had a significant impact on his country. Following the conclusion of his second term of office Barack Obama left the White House with a 60% approval rating and regularly ranks highly in lists of America's greatest ever presidents. Through the course of this book we will look at how his unusual childhood helped to shape the man, and the President, that he would become. We will also discuss how Obama used his time as President to try to improve life for the ordinary American. We will then, finally, look at the impact that Obama had on America and his lasting legacy. Donald Trump In many ways, there is much still to be said about Donald Trump. It is impossible to know what direction his life will take from here, but it is imperative to know where he came from. No matter who you are, what party you belong to, or what you believe in, on November 9th 2016 Donald Trump became the business of every person in the civilized world. He was elected the 45th president of the United States of America in 2016 and the world has been forever changed since. How did America get here? Well, that story must begin with his and the path that his life has taken. At times, it may be difficult to ascertain exactly where his motivations lie and delving deeper into his past might hold answers that the reporters at the White House can't learn. This is the true story of Donald Trump's life and career to date, painting a unique, unseen portrayal of the World's Most Powerful Man.

IntroductionDonald J. Trump is the king of Twitter. He is without a doubt the biggest, most significant and the most prolific individual user of Twitter ever. With an average of over 4000 tweets each year, no other individual comes close.Whether you are pro Trump, anti-Trump or a Trump neutral the undeniable fact is that Donald Trump is a very significant and consequential figure of this time and history. And that he will be watched, studied, analyzed and dissected in the years, decades and centuries to come. I count us only very lucky to have him use Twitter as profusely as he does to pour out his heart and soul. Therefore, more than any books Trump has written or that has been written about Trump, it is only in his direct tweets that we really have a pure insight into the mind, soul and character of the real Donald J. Trump, in his own words "the honest and unfiltered" President Trump. No history of President Trump's administration or President Trump the man is complete without a chronicle of his generous tweets. All of his highs, his lows, controversies, policy fights, personal fights, verbal attacks, ideas, wins, losses, name-callings, tantrums, rants, likes and dislikes during his action-packed presidency all played out on twitter and captured in this compilation ... a very intense read. It is a complete day-by-day; month-by-month compilation of Donald J. Trump's every tweet as President of the USA encapsulated into one easily perusable reference unit.About the bookSuch interest in the tweets of President Trump has led many to try to search backwards for his earlier tweets only to find out that there are limits to how far one can go with regular Twitter searches. So I have embarked on this, a complete compilation of Donald Trump's tweets starting from the beginning of his Presidency to the present day, to conclude at his exit. Due to the large number of his tweets the book comes in volumes of a year's tweet per volume beginning from January 1, 2017. Volume 1: Jan 2017 - Dec 2017(456 pages), Volume 2: Jan 2018 - Dec 2018 and Volume 3: Jan 2019 - Dec 2019. To be continued yearly till the day he leaves office.Welcome to TRUMP by TRUMP: The presidential Tweets of Donald J. Trump

AN ALTERNATIVE MUSICAL ABOUT AN ALTERNATIVE PRESIDENT Written in four acts presented across two parts, TRUMPED: An Alternative Musical is a satirical stage play that parodies the 2016 Presidential Election campaign of Donald Trump and his subsequent time in office as the 45th President of the United States. Opening on the final day of the July 2016 Republican National Convention in Cleveland, Ohio, Act I tells the story behind the Trump campaign's journey from the outsider of the Republican field to the unexpected winner of the Electoral College with a questionable victory. With the election over and Donald Trump set to become the 4th President, Act II opens the day following the election as both the world and the current President, Barack Obama, are all still in shock at the previous day's result. Picking up some weeks after the conclusion of Part One, Act III opens as the President is presumed missing by his closest supporters, and Vladimir Putin is becoming tiresome of ruling from the front lines. Coming to a close as the 2018 Midterm elections approach, Act III follows the President as, despite his America-first attitude, he attempts to forge new international ties with world leaders and royalty alike, while domestically, his party works to secure a new seat on the Supreme Court. Act IV opens with an opportunity to discover how Trump's predecessor is coping with his post-presidential life and his thoughts on the upcoming Midterm elections. Leaving island life behind, the action then returns to Trump as he discovers that under his leadership, the Republican Party is set for a historic loss. Coming to an end in late 2019, this final act builds up to an interpretation of events as they should have been, with the President finally being held to account.

Will President Trump destroy civilization or win the Nobel Peace Prize? Humankind's survival feels like a jump ball that could go either way.

The public intellectual, as a person and ideal, has a long and storied history. Writing in venues like the New Republic and Commentary, such intellectuals were always expected to opine on a broad array of topics, from foreign policy to literature to economics. Yet in recent years a new kind of thinker has supplanted that archetype: the thought leader. Equipped with one big idea, thought leaders focus their energies on TED talks rather than highbrow periodicals. How did this shift happen? In The Ideas Industry, Daniel W. Drezner points to the roles of political polarization, heightened inequality, and eroding trust in authority as ushering in the change. In contrast to public intellectuals, thought leaders gain fame as single-idea merchants. Their ideas are often laudable and highly ambitious: ending global poverty by 2025, for example. But instead of a class composed of university professors and freelance intellectuals debating in highbrow magazines, thought leaders often work through institutions that are closed to the public. They are more immune to criticism--and in this century, the criticism of public intellectuals also counts for less. Three equally important factors that have reshaped the world of ideas have been waning trust in expertise, increasing political polarization and plutocracy. The erosion of trust has lowered the barriers to entry in the marketplace of ideas. Thought leaders don't need doctorates or fellowships to advance their arguments. Polarization is hardly a new phenomenon in the world of ideas, but in contrast to their predecessors, today's intellectuals are more likely to enjoy the support of ideologically friendly private funders and be housed in ideologically-driven think tanks. Increasing inequality as a key driver of this shift: more than ever before, contemporary plutocrats fund intellectuals and idea factories that generate arguments that align with their own. But, while there are certainly some downsides to the contemporary ideas industry, Drezner argues that it is very good at broadcasting ideas widely and reaching large audiences of people hungry for new thinking. Both fair-minded and trenchant, The Ideas Industry will reshape our understanding of contemporary public intellectual life in America and the West.

The Best of “The Daily Don,” political cartoon that documents all the covfefe of the administration of Donald Trump. A hilarious, sad, frightening, artistic look at the world in the time of Trump! The Daily Don is the best of artist Jesse Duquette’s fabulous Instagram gallery of political cartoons relating to the Trump administration. It began in the wake of the first Trump press conference that gave us the weird and unnecessary lie about crowd sizes. Right then, Jesse thought, if this was Day One and the lying was already this casual and obvious, what did this mean for Day 2? or Day 100? He drew his first picture: Sean Spicer delivering his line (“Period.”), added a quote from Orwell’s “1984” that seemed particularly relevant, and posted it to Instagram with the caption that he was going to attempt to document every day of the Administration until the end—a vow that he was maybe 35% serious about. But he has not missed a day and is still going strong. These drawings are the perfect antidote to the cries about “Fake News!” and “Build a Wall!” They help us all stay sane and smile (however nervously) through these strange times. This book pulls together selections from the first nearly-two-years in office—from Muslim bans to The Mueller Report to Kellyanne Conway to Melania’s jacket, and all the beef-tweeting covfefe in between—and acts as a semi-accurate record of what these strangest of strange times were like for those of us who were there and lived to tell the tale. Because what better method to record a cartoon presidency than with colored pencils and markers?

With over 400 photos, documents and interactive links, DAYS of TRUMP: The Definitive Chronology of the 45th President of the United States may be the most comprehensive resource for political historians and lay people alike digging even deeper into the whirlwind days of the Trump presidency than any book released to date.
