Book
Triggered : how the Left thrives on hate and wants to silence us / Donald Trump Jr.
"From his childhood summers in Communist Czechoslovakia that began his political thought process, to working on construction sites with his father, to the major achievements of President Trump's administration, Donald Trump, Jr. spares no details and delivers a book that focuses on success and perseverance, and proves offense is the best defense."--Publisher's description.
"If you'd rather see this country fail than succeed under President Trump, this book might not be for you. If you're an American and think Donald Trump is 'not your president,' this book is also not for you. If you love America and red meat, and you don't care for political correctness, however, then you've come to the right place. Donald Trump Jr. is the most dynamic, controversial, and popular voice on the right since, well, his father. Having honed his political chops on the trail doing hundreds of campaign rallies and events, Don Jr. owns the uncanny ability to see the truth behind the smoke machine of lies that clouds our politics today. Like his father, he's the classic counterpuncher. In [this book], he takes that combative edge, razor wit, and laser focus to the page, and no subject is safe. From Robert Mueller and his phony investigation to college safe spaces, from social justice warriors to the hand-to-hand combat of social media, from Jussie Smollett to Joe Biden, Pocahontas, and the rest of the wild socialist 2020 Dem hopefuls, Don Jr. tears into nearly every topic that crowds our news cycles and social media feeds today. Along the way you'll get a glimpse of a life of stark contrasts. Don spent his childhood summers in rural Communist Czechoslovakia with his grandparents. The rest of the year, he lived in a triplex atop Trump Tower or at sumptuous Mar-a-Lago. As a teenager, he drove earth movers for his dad, then bartended in Aspen after college. By twenty-five, however, he was a VP for the Trump Organization and beginning to build an impressive business résumé. From the boardrooms of the Trump Tower, he was thrust into politics and on an unlikely path to become the primary surrogate, the 'tip of the spear' on the greatest presidential campaign in American history. Written with wit and refreshing candor, Triggered is a book for our political time--and Donald Trump Jr. is the voice of our political future."--Dust jacket.
