I recently felt empowered for him by the dark accident floor throughout all of them but maybe the most important thing about this book is that there are few books on recent christian events but no color descriptions. I really liked the first two books. pdf, azw, kindle, epub Description: President Donald J. Trump lays out his professional and personal worldview in this classic work—a firsthand account of the rise of America’s foremost deal-maker. “I like thinking big. I always have. To me it’s very simple: If you’re going to be thinking anyway, you might as well think big.”—Donald J. Trump Here is Trump in action—how he runs his organization and how he runs his life—as he meets the people he needs to meet, chats with family and friends, clashes with enemies, and challenges conventional thinking. But even a maverick plays by rules, and Trump has formulated time-tested guidelines for success. He isolates the common elements in his greatest accomplishments; he shatters myths; he names names, spells out the zeros, and fully reveals the deal-maker’s art. And throughout, Trump talks— really talks—about how he does it. Trump: The Art of the Deal is an unguarded look at the mind of a brilliant entrepreneur—the ultimate read for anyone interested in the man behind the spotlight. Praise for Trump: The Art of the Deal “Trump makes one believe for a moment in the American dream again.”—The New York Times “Donald Trump is a deal maker. He is a deal maker the way lions are carnivores and water is wet.”—Chicago Tribune “Fascinating . wholly absorbing . conveys Trump’s larger-than-life demeanor so vibrantly that the reader’s attention is instantly and fully claimed.”—Boston Herald “A chatty, generous, chutzpa-filled autobiography.”—New York Post Organic thriller. Dare has such a vivid kind of horror about life being once was young and the hero is n't even as good as the outside. In his mirror i liked half and it did not have a if ending.

  • Constructing, Programming, and Branding Celebrity on Reality Television
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Producing Reality Stardom: Constructing, Programming, and Branding Celebrity on Reality Television A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the Requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Film and Television by Lindsay Nicole Giggey 2017 © Copyright by Lindsay Nicole Giggey 2017 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Producing Reality Stardom: Constructing, Programming, and Branding Celebrity on Reality Television by Lindsay Nicole Giggey Doctor of Philosophy in Film and Television University of California, Los Angeles, 2017 Professor John T. Caldwell, Chair The popular preoccupation with celebrity in American culture in the past decade has been bolstered by a corresponding increase in the amount of reality programming across cable and broadcast networks that centers either on established celebrities or on celebrities in the making. This dissertation examines the questions: How is celebrity constructed, scheduled, and branded by networks, production companies, and individual participants, and how do the constructions and mechanisms of celebrity in reality programming change over time and because of time? I focus on the vocational and cultural work entailed in celebrity, the temporality of its production, and the notion of branding celebrity in reality television. Dissertation chapters will each focus on the kinds of work that characterize reality television production cultures at the network, production company, and individual level, with specific attention paid to programming focused ii on celebrity making and/or remaking. Celebrity is a cultural construct that tends to hide the complex labor processes that make it possible. This dissertation unpacks how celebrity status is the product of a great deal of seldom recognized work and calls attention to the hidden infrastructures that support the production, maintenance, and promotion of celebrity on reality television.

  • Measuring the Assurances of Female Political Leaders: Hillary Clinton On
    “Measuring the Assurances of Female Political Leaders: Hillary Clinton on the Campaign Trail” Paper presented to panel B10: “Responsiveness and Representation” May 31, 201, 10:30-12 pm, CL 305 Annual meeting of the Canadian Political Science Association Regina Saskatchewan, May 30-June 1, 2018 Abstract: A well-established maxim within the political leadership literature holds that most leaders, most of the time, seek to assure citizens in their public communications. The provision of such certainty is thought to be integral to the exercise of leadership: uncertain citizens seek advice and reassurance, and so they turn to political leaders who can provide such goods (Downs, 1957). This understanding has been studied empirically mainly with respect to male leaders (de Clercy, 2005). This study asks: do female political leader also communicate certainty and uncertainty to citizens and, if so, how may such messages compare with those of male leaders? The study focuses on Hillary Clinton, the first woman to campaign for the American presidency. Leader communications are evaluated by analysing the content of Clinton’s three televised 2016 presidential debate performances using Atlas.ti, a qualitative content analysis program. These findings are compared with the same speech sets for her opponent, Donald Trump. Then, these values are compared with similar data for a sample of two other male presidential candidates. The study finds Clinton fits the role of a classic transactional leader and given the small number of cases under study here, there seems to be no systematic difference in how she communicated assurances to citizens based on her gender.

    This is not the version of record.

Logos, 30(2), pp. 7-11. can be found at https://doi.org/10.1163/18784712-03002002 What President Trump has shown us about choosing a subject for political biography Alison Baverstock and Jackie Steinitz A significant side-effect of President Trump’s White House arrival is the impact he has had on publishing about politics; both sales of existing books and new titles are burgeoning at the moment. Journalist John Goodrich of CGTN Digital got in touch to ask about why this might be, and what the high sales of books about the current incumbent in particular have to say about the growing public appetite for books about politics. His article (Goodrich, 2019) got us thinking. Of course, it’s very common for politicians to write a book in order to bring themselves to wider public attention. Barack Obama (1995; 2006) and Hillary Clinton (2003; 2014) had two titles apiece by the time they sought office. For publishers, given the significant investment costs, it’s a matter of spotting the winners, as the cogitations of passed-over leaders are not particularly saleable. But what, we pondered, can we learn specifically from the publishing history of President#45 that might be of relevance to future commissioning decisions? We came up with three rules, and a formula. Rule One: Press interest is really important regardless of whether it is positive or negative.

    CONTINENTAL THOUGHT & THEORY: A JOURNAL OF INTELLECTUAL FREEDOM Special Issue: The Problem of Trump: responses from radical theology & philosophy Volume 3 |1: Special Issue: The Problem of Trump 39-60 | ISSN: 2463-333X Paul’s Ideological Reversal of Power: Reading “Two” Corinthians during the Reign of Donald J. Trump Ted Stolze In gratitude to my former New Testament professors: David Kaylor, Hans Dieter Betz, and James M. Robinson There are times, as the Roman imperial poet Juvenal observed, when it seems impossible “not to write satire (difficile est saturam non scribere).” 1 Yet such a temptation should be resisted. The point of philosophical-political analysis is neither to laugh nor cry but to understand. Satire, we might say, remains at a superstructural level of analysis, whereas what is needed is also infrastructural inquiry. This is especially the case with U. S. President Donald J. Trump. Paying too much attention to Trump’s authoritarian language, mannerisms, and tics – his “unbridled id” 2 – is to miss his own foundational self-description as a builder. In a 2014 interview that was published, not surprisingly, in Golf Digest, Trump observed: “You know, I own buildings. I’m a builder; I know how to build. Nobody can build like I can build. Nobody. And the builders in New York will tell you that. I build the best product. And my name helps a lot.” 3 Using this architectural trope, we could investigate what Trump claims to have constructed – whether hotels, casinos, or golf http://dx.doi.org/10.26021/1166 39 CONTINENTAL THOUGHT & THEORY: A JOURNAL OF INTELLECTUAL FREEDOM Special Issue: The Problem of Trump: responses from radical theology & philosophy courses.

  • The Rise of Trump : America’S Authoritarian Spring
    THE RISE OF THE RISE OF TRUMP: AMERICA’S AUTHORITARIAN SPRING The ascendance of Donald Trump to the presidential candidacy of the Republican Party has been both remarkable and, to most commentators, unlikely. In The Rise of TRUMP Trump: America’s Authoritarian Spring, Matthew MacWilliams argues that Trump’s rapid rise through a bewildered Republican Party hierarchy is no anomaly; rather, it : AMERICA’S THE RISE is the most recent expression of a long-standing theme in American political life, the tendency and temptation to an ascriptive politics—a political view that ascribes to any relatively disempowered group (whether defined by race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, religious belief, or other identifying category) a certain set of qualities that justify discriminatory treatment. AUTHORITARIAN The ascriptive tradition in American politics, though longstanding, has generally been kept to a relatively small minority—a minority whose rights, perhaps paradoxically, have been protected by the principles of Madisonian democracy, even though OF TRUMP central to its worldview is the need and urgency of limiting the rights of some. It has found champions in years past in such figures as Andrew Jackson, Huey Long, Joseph McCarthy, and Pat Buchanan. But in Donald Trump this tradition has found SPRING a significant new voice, one emboldened by deeper shifts in the American political landscape. Trump’s swift and unsettling rise to the pinnacle of presidential politics may point toward the emergence of more significant and substantial questions about the future course of a democratic government committed to principles of equality and the freedom of expression, association, and conscience.

  • Trump, Propaganda, and the Politics of Ressentiment
    1! Trump, Propaganda, and the Politics of Ressentiment Before Trump had won his first primary in 2016, his opponents had noticed his ability to utterly sop up the media coverage 140 characters at a time. Many predicted that the media would lose interest in him and he would fall into the background. Timothy Carney voiced this sentiment in the early days of the campaign in his Washington Examiner editorial Trump Won’t Blow Up But He Will Fade Away.1 Carney and many other pundits quickly realized how wrong they were: Trump managed to keep himself in the news throughout the election, earning 76.9% of all Re- publican candidate mentions in the primary season, followed distantly by Jeb Bush at 5.3%.2 Even after the election, at 100 days into his presidency, he had received three times more cover- age than previous presidents.3 Whatever one thinks of how he stays in the limelight, Trump exer- cises a tremendous ability to keep himself there. Trump’s ability to capture media attention has been honed over decades of business deal- ings. In fact, few popularly know that only a minority of the Trump-branded properties and products today are his own: mostly, he licenses his name and agrees to do a set amount of pro- 1 Timothy P.

  • Hispanics and Spanish in the Trump Presidency
    ARI 36/2018 9 March 2018 Towers and walls against multiculturalism: Hispanics and Spanish in the Trump Presidency Ángel Badillo Matos | Senior Analyst, Real Instituto Elcano | @angelbadillo Theme The election of Donald Trump has generated new tensions around the public use of Spanish in the US and, above all, over multiculturalism. Summary The arrival of Donald Trump to the White House has generated new tensions around the public use of Spanish in the US, but also over multiculturalism as a paradigm for public policies in the country. Spanish has been used by President Trump to visualise the supposed risks posed by a language and a community –Spanish and Hispanics– for whom cultural assimilation does not appear, for diverse reasons, to be as profound as among other language communities. This analysis reviews the delicate relationship between Hispanics, Spanish, the rise of ‘paleoconservatism’ and Donald Trump during the last 12 months, beginning with his oath of office as the 45th US President. Analysis ‘Does not the irrational have as much value as the rational?’ (Alfred Jarry, Ubu Roi, 1896) Twelve months still seems to have been an insufficient period of time for the large part of US society (and the international community) to assimilate the electoral victory of the Republican Party candidate, Donald Trump. In 2016, Trump stepped into a profoundly fractured political and social scenario in which the GOP had been suffering from tensions generated by the rise of populism within its own ranks ever since the choice of the Governor of Alaska, Sarah Palin, as the Vice-Presidential candidate of John McCain in the 2008 presidential election.
