This essay lists essential topics that should be part of this still-emerging enterprise. This includes a critical examination of his childhood and business career, how his ideology and policies fit within the Republican Party, and what in our culture, politics, and history ex- plains how an individual with so little regard for the truth, so ill- informed, and who so extremely slanders others could be elected presi- dent in 2016. In the 1960s, there was Beatlemania; since June 2015, we have had “Trumpmania.” Few if any American political figures have so dominated media attention as has this New York real estate tycoon. In the Age of Trump, there should be Trump Studies. This would be an interdisciplinary endeavor that would need to include contributions from at least history, political science, sociology, eco- nomics, media studies, psychoanalysis, and psychology. The aim is to understand the Trump phenomenon in all its manifestations. As with any subject matter, we need to ascertain all the topics needed to have a comprehensive overview of the task at hand. These es- sential topics include: explaining what in American culture and his- tory can help us understand how Trump was elected; discussing the how, why, and consequences of Trump making untrue statements; how his domestic and foreign priorities and ideology can be placed in historical perspective; what in his childhood and business career have shaped how he acts as president; and showing how his actions as Commander in Chief reflect these past patterns. Much of what follows is familiar. There may be additional subject areas that oth- ers think are necessary as well. Trumpmania is based on the popular appeal of Donald John Trump. At his rallies this New Yorker elicited enormous enthusias- tic support from millions of his fellow Americans. The political pundits and pollsters consistently underestimated the extent of this Page 2 Clio’s Psyche support. The varied motivations of Trump voters must be carefully examined. The foundation of Trump’s support was in whites with- out a college degree, which he won by bigger margins in exit polls than any candidate since 1980. The same exit polls also showed him getting four percent more of white college graduates’ votes than did Hillary Clinton. In addition, in exit polls Trump did better with women than did McCain or Romney. As with any successful candidate, he had significant support from diverse groups. One of the reasons for examining Trump relates to his abil- ity to get so much media attention. He has shown a remarkable tal- ent to draw the attention of the mass media. As Trump remarked during the campaign, the cable news networks broadcast his rallies live and far more often than those of his rivals. The reasons for that, he said, is because he increases their ratings. What is it in what Trump does that has so captivated so many people, and has so dominated news coverage? I cannot think of a more major concern in Trump Studies than explaining his ability to rivet so many in the nation and media so often and for so long. Comprehensive biographical examinations of Donald Trump’s family background, childhood, and business career are essential. The historian of the family finds a three-generation pat- tern of energetic male ambition, practical skills, and using any and all means to achieve success (Gwenda Blair, The Trumps: Three Generations Who Built an Empire, 2000, 456-7). Donald Trump said of his personality: “When I look at myself in the first grade and I look at myself now, I’m basically the same. The temperament is not that different” (Michael D’Antonio, The Truth About Trump, 2016, 53). Examining the nature of his character as a child of six and its continuity to the present is a central component of Trump Studies. Also, needed here is an analysis of how his parents and schoolteachers responded to his rambunctious childhood behavior, which eventually led to Donald being sent to military high school. He grew up in a wealthy family as one of five children; family dynamics are important to Trump Studies. Donald is the second son, and his older brother would ultimately become a nega- tive example. The President attributes his refusal to smoke and drink to his older brother’s role as a cautionary tale. Their father both encouraged and disciplined his children, but eventually chose Donald as his successor and told him regularly that he is a king. His father strongly encouraged Donald’s tendency to exhibit narcis- sistic traits. Page 3 Clio’s Psyche Examining Trump Page 3 Donald Trump has spent over 40 years as a businessman and over 30 as a celebrity. He followed in his father’s footsteps, and whereas Fred Trump was a self-made real estate magnate in Brooklyn and Queens, Donald desired to make his mark in Manhat- tan. A self-described small loan of a million dollars from his father helped him get started and other loans rescued him when his casi- nos were about to go under. As an ambitious, wealthy young man in Manhattan real es- tate, Donald had some remarkable accomplishments at an early age.

  • Chapter 4 the Right-Wing Media Enablers of Anti-Islam Propaganda
    Chapter 4 The right-wing media enablers of anti-Islam propaganda Spreading anti-Muslim hate in America depends on a well-developed right-wing media echo chamber to amplify a few marginal voices. The think tank misinforma- tion experts and grassroots and religious-right organizations profiled in this report boast a symbiotic relationship with a loosely aligned, ideologically-akin group of right-wing blogs, magazines, radio stations, newspapers, and television news shows to spread their anti-Islam messages and myths. The media outlets, in turn, give members of this network the exposure needed to amplify their message, reach larger audiences, drive fundraising numbers, and grow their membership base. Some well-established conservative media outlets are a key part of this echo cham- ber, mixing coverage of alarmist threats posed by the mere existence of Muslims in America with other news stories. Chief among the media partners are the Fox News empire,1 the influential conservative magazine National Review and its website,2 a host of right-wing radio hosts, The Washington Times newspaper and website,3 and the Christian Broadcasting Network and website.4 They tout Frank Gaffney, David Yerushalmi, Daniel Pipes, Robert Spencer, Steven Emerson, and others as experts, and invite supposedly moderate Muslim and Arabs to endorse bigoted views. In so doing, these media organizations amplify harm- ful, anti-Muslim views to wide audiences. (See box on page 86) In this chapter we profile some of the right-wing media enablers, beginning with the websites, then hate radio, then the television outlets. The websites A network of right-wing websites and blogs are frequently the primary movers of anti-Muslim messages and myths.

TRUMP, Plaintiff, v. Index No. _____________ DONALD J. TRUMP, in his personal capacity, MARYANNE TRUMP BARRY, and JOHN or JANE DOE, the executor of the ESTATE OF ROBERT S. COMPLAINT TRUMP, in his or her capacity as executor, Defendants. Plaintiff Mary L. Trump (“Mary”), by and through her attorneys, alleges as follows: INTRODUCTION 1. For Donald J. Trump, his sister Maryanne, and their late brother Robert, fraud was not just the family business—it was a way of life. Beginning in the 1980s, these siblings took control of the New York City real estate empire that their father Fred Sr. had built, and exploited it to enrich themselves at the expense of everyone around them. They concocted scheme after scheme to cheat on their taxes, swindle their business partners, and jack up rents on their low- income tenants. 2. This case is brought by a victim closer to home—their niece Mary. Mary’s father, and their brother, Fred Trump Jr., died in 1981 when Mary was just sixteen years old. Upon his death, Mary inherited valuable minority interests in the family business. Donald, Maryanne, and Robert committed to watch over her interests as fiduciaries. They lied. Rather than protect Mary’s interests, they designed and carried out a complex scheme to siphon funds away from her interests, conceal their grift, and deceive her about the true value of what she had inherited.

A podium on a stage held a banner with the slogan “Make America Great Again!” All heads turned as sixty-nine-year-old Donald John Trump made a grand entrance, rid- ing down a multistory escalator with his wife, Melania. Trump biogra- pher Gwenda Blair describes the scene: “Gazing out, they seemed for a moment like a royal couple viewing subjects from the balcony of the palace.”1 Trump fl ashed two thumbs up and took his place on the stage to proclaim his intention to campaign for the Republican nomination for president. Unlike the other politicians hoping to be elected president in No- vember 2016, Trump was a billionaire and international celebrity who had been in the public eye for decades. Trump was known as a negotia- tor, salesman, television personality, and builder of glittering skyscrap- ers. He was involved in high-end real estate transactions, casinos, golf courses, beauty pageants, and the reality show Th e Apprentice. Trump’s name was spelled out in shiny gold letters on luxury skyscrapers, golf courses, resorts, and other properties throughout the world.

The guilty one is not he who commits the sin, but the one who causes the darkness. —Victor Hugo, Les Misérables Author’s Note Much of this book comes from my own memory. For events during which I was not present, I relied on conversations and interviews, many of which are recorded, with members of my family, family friends, neighbors, and associates. I’ve reconstructed some dialogue according to what I personally remember and what others have told me. Where dialogue appears, my intention was to re-create the essence of conversations rather than provide verbatim quotes. I have also relied on legal documents, bank statements, tax returns, private journals, family documents, correspondence, emails, texts, photographs, and other records. For general background, I relied on the New York Times, in particular the investigative article by David Barstow, Susanne Craig, and Russ Buettner that was published on October 2, 2018; the Washington Post; Vanity Fair; Politico; the TWA Museum website; and Norman Vincent Peale’s The Power of Positive Thinking. For background on Steeplechase Park, I thank the Coney Island History Project website, Brooklyn Paper, and a May 14, 2018, article on 6sqft.com by Dana Schulz.

  • Trump Seeks Dismissal of Niece's Fraud Lawsuit
    Trump seeks dismissal of niece's fraud lawsuit Trump seeks dismissal of niece's fraud lawsuit Washington, January 6 (RHC)-- U.S. President Donald Trump has sought to cancel a lawsuit lodged by his niece Mary Trump who claims she had been cheated out of her inheritance worth tens of millions of dollars by her uncles and aunt. The president's lawyers claimed Mary Trump had failed to provide solid evidence that Donald Trump, his sister Maryanne Trump Barry and his late brother Robert Trump had tried to "squeeze" her out of her inheritance. "Plaintiff makes outlandish and incredulous accusations in her complaint, which is laden with conspiracy theories more befitting a Hollywood screenplay than a pleading in a legal action," the president's lawyers, who also represent Robert Trump's estate, said in a filing on Monday in a New York state court in Manhattan. Trump's lawyers said Mary Trump's lawsuit's "true purpose" was "to weaken the President's political influence during his post-presidency by preoccupying him with the defense of innumerable lawsuits." Roberta Kaplan, a lawyer for Mary Trump, said that while her client "is surely no fan of Donald Trump or his administration's policies, [the] intra-family fraud is what this case is about." Meanwhile, Mary Trump, 55, a psychologist, made some of her allegations in her best-selling tell-all: "Too Much and Never Enough: How My Family Created the World's Most Dangerous Man." Donald Trump, who lost the 2020 US presidential election to Democratic Joe Biden, faces several other legal actions, as well.

Chair: Dr. Robert C.

Rowland Date Approved: 5 September 7 2019 iii Abstract On February 19, 2009, CNBC journalist Rick Santelli’s fiery outburst against the Obama Administration on national television gave the Tea Party Movement (TPM) its namesake. Soon after rallies were organized across the U.S. under the Tea Party banner. From its inception in 2009, the TPM became an essential player in U.S. politics and pivotal in flipping control of the Senate and House to the Republican Party during the 2010 midterm elections. The movement faced controversy on both sides of the political spectrum for its beliefs and fervent stance against compromising with political adversaries. Researchers argued that the TPM was an example of Richard Hofstadter’s Paranoid Style. Others claimed that the movement’s rhetoric, member demographics, and political success demonstrated it was outside the boundaries of the Paranoid Style.
