Who is the real Donald Trump? A serial liar with long ties to both organized crime and the Kremlin. A corrupt demagogue whom most historians consider the worst U.S. president of all time. And, most urgently, a vengeful wannabe dictator whose re-election would end American democracy. In this short and necessary volume, Dirty Rubles author Greg Olear presents the facts about FPOTUS: who he is, what he plans to do, and why the country cannot survive a second Trump term. Donald Trump is a Rough Beast. America is slouching towards dictatorship.
As readable as it is horrifying, Greg Olear's Rough Beast bathes the reader in unassailable facts about the presumptive Republican nominee...Here they are, in one convenient, breezy tome...This is real. This is not a drill. Avoid reading this very necessary book at freedom's peril.
-Rachel Slade, author of Into the Raging Sea and Making It In America
Rough Beast lays out in detail who, and what, the US would be bringing back into office, and the picture should frighten anyone who isn't going to directly benefit from theocratic autocracy.
-Brynn Tannehill, author of American Fascism: How the GOP is Subverting Democracy
