In the early months of Trump's candidacy, the Republican Party's most important figures were united in their scorn and contempt. Then, awkwardly, Trump won. Leibovich tracks what the politicos did to preserve their place in the sun-- and it turns out they would do almost anything. Trump's savage bullying created a dangerous culture of submission in the Republican Party. This led to a country truly unhinged from reality-- and to the events of January...

"Running water. Electricity. Antibiotics. Dentistry. Air conditioning. Democracy. The rule of law. Such things are not only remarkably new inventions in human history, they are all alien to humanity's natural habitat. Here is what is natural: poverty, hunger, violence, tribal hatred, and an early death. If the Garden of Eden existed, it was a slum.

Social theorist Lerner challenges the Left to give up its deeply held fear of religion and to distinguish between a domination-oriented, Right-Hand-of-God tradition and a more compassionate and hope-oriented Left-Hand-of-God worldview.
