From The National Memo comes the indispensable investigation of the Donald Trump phenomenon - and the shocking truth about why we should have seen this coming.
WARNING: Surprised when Trump won the Presidency? Here's why we should have seen it coming.
While many view Trump’s transition from B-list reality star to partisan demagogue as emblematic of our worst excesses, this new e-book reveals how pop culture predicted his rise long ago.
Years and even decades ahead of political pundits, artists and entertainers told us -- in TV shows, horror movies, satirical books, and comics mirroring the man himself -- that a vulgar authoritarian would seek to rule us someday.
Today’s atmosphere of violence, hatred, and prejudice is perfectly suited to boost the candidacy of the man loudly fanning the flames. Yes, pop culture began to sound the alarm long ago; now it's up to us to listen -- and act.
