American Carnage

American Carnage provides a comprehensive look at the making of the modern Republican Party, highlighting how a decade of cultural upheaval, populist outrage, and ideological warfare made the GOP vulnerable to a takeover by Donald J. Trump.

The book is based on hundreds of exclusive interviews with key figures such as President Trump, Paul Ryan, Ted Cruz, John Boehner, and Mitch McConnell.

It explores the fundamental questions at the center of America’s current turmoil, including the transformation of the GOP’s values and policies, and how Trump’s victory was a culmination of the party’s internal civil war and broader societal changes.
