Ebook About NOBODY HATES TRUMP MORE THAN TRUMP: AN INTERVENTION is perhaps the only genuinely original thing you have read yet about Donald Trump. It can be read in a variety of ways: as a psychological investigation of Trump, as a philosophical meditation on the relationship between language and power, as a satirical compilation of the “collected wit and wisdom of Donald Trump,” and above all as a dagger into the rhetoric of American political discourse—a dissection of the politesse that gave rise to and sustains Trump. The book’s central thesis is that we have met the enemy and he is us. Who else but David Shields would make such an argument, let alone pull it off with such intelligence, brio, and wit, not to mention leaked off-air transcripts from Fox News?------------- PRAISE -------------Brian Fawcett, Dooney’s Cafe“The best book, so far, on the political and cultural implications of Trump’s presidency. Shields has the widest range of curiosity of any American writer I’m aware of, and he almost never wastes your time. He nails what’s off-kilter and crazy about Donald Trump and the political psychosis he represents at least a hundred times, and in dozens of insightful ways. Shields is good enough, in this book, to earn the designation of being the writer most likely to be picked up and murdered should either right- or left-wing fundamentalists take power in the United States. This is a designation that hasn’t been conferred on an American writer since Philip K. Dick. What I’m saying is that Shields is that good. He is one of a very small group of true 21st century writers worthy of the tag, and I salute him as a master.”Jeff Simon, Buffalo News“You're unlikely to encounter another book so recklessly and unpredictably full of insight, even wisdom. Shields is the most exciting writer we have in America at the moment, the most startling and innovative.”Tim DeneviLitHub, Favorite Books of 2018“A fantastic read.”Neal Thompson, Seattle Spokesman-ReviewFavorite Books of 2018Toby Lichtig, TLS“Often brilliant.”Moshe Schulman, The Rumpus“A sobering, nuanced, and—at times—brutally funny—psychological investigation into why Trump resonates with all, even the people who hate him.”Cathy Alter, Washington [D.C.] Independent Review“A mesmerizing study of power, how it isolates, how it infantalizes, how it amplifies our collective fears.”Kirkus Reviews“A compelling book offering something to offend nearly anyone.”Publishers Weekly“Shields weaves together wry observations.”Shannon Laster, Open Letters Review“Shields’s short book delivers the goods.”Neal McNamara, Patch“Nobody Hates Trump More Than Trump has something new to say.”Book Nobody Hates Trump More Than Trump: An Intervention Review :
Okay, so, am I the stupidest and least aware person about social media in America? Am I the only reader and social observer who had no idea of who David Shields is? (He's described as "an internationally best-selling author of 22 books" on his Amazon page. And he's one of the best-looking bald men I've ever seen. Though maybe that's just a good picture.) Anyway...David Shields was not in my knowledge-pool, but I paid $4.95 today to buy and read the eversion of his book, "Nobody Hates Trump More Than Trump: An Intervention".After reading Shields's book, I am still rather stunned that I was able to survive the barrage of incoming coming at me from Shields's text. Everything from Donald Trump to Fred Trump to Martin Scorsese to Robin Quivers to Donald Trump again to Brian Williams (I couldn't tell if he liked or disliked Brian Williams but he did seem to pop up in the book a lot) to cats to poor people to Martin Amis and back to Donald Trump again. He also touched on a building at the University of Washington where he teaches called "Sieg Hall". (The building's been there for 20 years or so and yet no one has officially commented about the name. I checked the University of Washington website and there it was...Sieg Hall!)It's clear that David Shields doesn't care for Donald Trump, but his book is sort of an explanation of how and why Trump was elected in 2016 (and might be again in 2020). There are many quotes by Trump and about Trump (sources noted in a "Citations" section at the back of the book) There's just so much other, extraneous "stuff" in the book that I couldn't separate the wheat from the chaff, so to speak.Who was the "intervention" for?But here's the thing. I'm not a reader of David Shields but he clearly appeals to readers who aren't me. And if you're one of them, then you're probably used to his...uh...writing style. And I suspect that "Nobody Hates Trump More Than Trump" is a pretty good example of it, so if you're already a fan, you'll probably enjoy the book. I bought Shields's book last week and read it straight through over the last several days, finishing the second half in a long burst in the course of several airplane flights. I enjoyed it immensely, in every respect. I'm a news junkie, watch a lot of CNN and MSNBC, listen to news/talk on Sirius XM, and have tried for the past three years to hold down what I'd call a skeptical centrist view on Trump on my Facebook page. I piss everybody off. But whatever feeble attempts at scrambling conventional party thinking I've made, Shields is doing it with speedball verve and bunker-buster effect. He, Trump, may just be the perfect subject for Shields--for the new kind of late-postmodernist writing he's evolved over the past decade. Much of the pleasure of his book comes from the all-points attempt to Explain Trump; the former grad student in me loves the way he throws every kind of contemporary theorist at him.Actually, what comes to mind is Adorno's "Minima Moralia," driven by the command "always negate." The problem with those who "hate Trump," as Shields evokes with fierceness, rigor, and disdain, is that they conceive of negation as "He's A, we're B." Trump is all the Bad Things, we're the forces of righteousness. That sort of thinking is much, much too linear. Negation isn't that easy. Shields ACTUALLY negates; he actually subverts, which is a much trickier thing to do. He savors the true complexities of the moment. He appreciates the way in which Trump has gotten into us, under our skins; in which the enemy we've met isn't something we can easily push away, abject, claim as wholly other. Shields's book is immensely liberating for that reason. It doesn't try to have the final word. It doesn't dwell in its own self-righteousness. It doesn't play that game. It knows that such forms of negation are much, much too easy. They push away the shadow, individual and cultural. I love that Shields is writing from a place that sees all that, takes it as a given, and then says "Now what?" And keeps on going.For me, the most eye-opening explanation for Trump offered by Shields's book is the long interpolated quotation from the writer who argues, "People underestimate the formative influence of Trump's upbringing in Queens, what it was like to be Fred Trump's son, overseeing rental properties at a time when some neighborhoods were 'good' and some were 'going bad,'" i.e., being integrated. I think that's it. I think that gets us very close to where Trump is actually coming from on race and the border question.Just a fantastic and endlessly thought-provoking read. It's been a long time since I wanted to read a book again from page 1 the moment I turned the final page, but I can't wait to do that with this one.
