Summary:
"Political historian and commentator David Rothkopf shows how
Trump
will be judged by
history
. (Spoiler alert: not well) in Traitor.
Donald
Trump
is unfit in almost every respect for the high office he holds. But what distinguishes him from every other bad leader the U.S. has had is that he has repeatedly, egregiously, betrayed his country. Regardless of how Senate Republicans have let him off the hook, the facts available to the public show that
Trump
has met every necessary standard to define his behavior as traitorous. He has clearly broken faith with the people of the country he was chosen to lead, starting long before he took office, then throughout his time in the White House. And we may not yet have seen the last of his crimes. But the story we know so far is so outrageous and disturbing that it raises a question that has never before been presented in
American
history
: is the president of the United States the greatest threat this country faces in the world? We also need to understand how the country has historically viewed such crimes and how it has treated them in the past to place what has happened in perspective. After his examination of traitors including
Benedict
Arnold
, Aaron Burr, and leaders of the Confederacy, David Rothkopf concludes that
Donald
Trump
and his many abettors have committed the highest-level, greatest, most damaging
betrayal
in the
history
of the country"--Publisher.
