Publisher's Synopsis
When Donald J. Trump descended the escalator in Trump Tower on June 16, 2015, it marked the beginning of a movement that would resonate far beyond America's borders. His call to "Make America Great Again" tapped into a deep-seated desire for change, sparking a populist wave that defied conventional political wisdom and challenged the global status quo. In this insightful analysis, Dr. Steve Turley examines how Trump's campaign ignited a broader nationalist-populist movement that has since swept across the globe. From the historic Brexit vote led by Nigel Farage to the rise of leaders like Giorgia Meloni and Viktor Orban, this book uncovers the common threads that unite these diverse movements: a rejection of globalism, a defense of national sovereignty, and a renewed commitment to cultural identity. Dr. Turley offers a balanced perspective on this global shift, recognizing both the challenges and the opportunities it presents. This book delves into the forces driving the MAGA movement and its international counterparts, providing a nuanced understanding of how they are reshaping the global political landscape. Whether you're a political observer or someone curious about the future of global politics, this book is an essential read. Dr. Steve Turley's exploration of the rise of nationalism and populism offers a clear-eyed view of the changing world order and what it means for the future of nations worldwide.
