Donald Trump Donald Trump Whether his orange tint is fake like the news or real like his tax deal, there is no denying Hipster Donald J. Trump, the 45th President of the United States, is flying! How could a man without political or military experience get elected after the nation reflected? It’s all down to how the voters reacted. Whether it’s courage or outrage, the power of a single man with a Twitter account can no longer be disputed – he’s shown that predictors of his demise were deluded. The populism was fast and direct. And now, everyone watches Donald Trump act. Every day, there’s some new controversial fact. Born to a real estate mogul father in New York City, Trump’s family name was originally “Drumpf”, but “Drumpf Tower” just wouldn’t have the same ring to it. Success came early to “the Donald”, who took over the family business and went about owning luxury real-estate, luxury consumer products, luxury beauty contests and his TV show, “The Apprentice”, about the aspirational set. Having married a series of beautiful, luxury-seeking women, Trump is all about exclusivity. Though his “Midas touch” sees him surrounded by gold, this Midas needs US bankruptcy laws to stay afloat – Trump got out of paying money he owed six times on business gone sour. The self-proclaimed “very stable genius” is the richest president in US history and the country’s only Billionaire-In-Chief. Though not known for his philanthropic side, Trump donates his salary to the state, following the example of fellow-Hipster JFK. A germaphobe, Trump considers hand shakes to be “one of the curses of American society”, but neither that nor his self-consciousness about the size of his hands has kept him out of the spotlight – Trump made cameo appearances in 12 films and 14 TV series and has his own star on Hollywood’s Walk Of Fame..

In , Publishers Weekly called Trump and Kiyosaki "the gold standard of the entrepreneurial spirit" and concluded it was "an impassioned argument for business self-actualization" despite focusing on big ideas instead of step-by-step plans. Interesting to hear about notorious deals from Trump's perspect I picked this book up from the library out of morbid curiosity, both of the authors Trump and Kiyosaki being assholes with undeserved reputations for business brilliance who use those reputations to sell scammy guru programs and evade taxes. This one was bloody awful. This title is due for release on October 4, Without a doubt, they should deserve the highest commendation! The Midas touch could've been just as well a book entirely written by Kiyosaki.

  • Trump, Celebrity and the Merchant Imaginary
    ARTICLE DOI: 10.1057/s41599-018-0177-6 OPEN Trump, celebrity and the merchant imaginary Barry King 1 ABSTRACT This article explores the social ontological basis of Trumpism as a form of populism, historically defined as government by personal rule. For many commentators, the key feature of Trump’s presidency is its fundamental irrationality. The President has variously described as ‘dumb’, ‘greedy’, ‘psychotic’,a‘narcissist’ in the grandiose mode, and an ‘egotist’ unfit for public office. This article does not aim to dissent from these kinds of conclusions but 1234567890():,; suggests that they partake more of the statement of effects or consequences rather than causes. Indeed, if they are considered as causes they lead to confusion, a kind of ‘attention- deficit disorder’ (which, ironically, some accuse the tweeting President of being a sufferer). Rather this paper suggests that a more systematic examination of the President’s persona reveals it as emerging from a conflation of the discourse of the American family and a merchant imaginary. 1 Auckland University of Technology, Auckland, New Zealand.

  • Trump, a Nationalist and a Populist Leader
    Global Journal of HUMAN-SOCIAL SCIENCE: F Political Science Volume 18 Issue 1 Version 1.0 Year 2018 Type: Double Blind Peer Reviewed International Research Journal Publisher: Global Journals Online ISSN: 2249-460x & Print ISSN: 0975-587X Trump, A Nationalist and a Populist Leader By Jose Pinto Lusophone University Abstract- In November 2016, against most expectations, even among some Republican Party’s members, and despite his lack of political experience, as he had never held any public office, Donald Trump won the presidential election in the USA through a campaign conducted against the political elite. During the campaign he presented himself as an outsider, as someone who would upend the corrupt political elite installed in Washington and that had no real touch with the citizens. An elite that was fuelled by money and often forgot the national interests. Trump was right when he believed that voters were expected to show their dissatisfaction at the polls. This essay reflects on the reasons underlying his victory and aims at proving that nationalism and populism were among them. It also tries to demonstrate that nationalism and populism are still present in Trump’s policies. An unorthodox President who, till the moment, is merely following through on his campaign promises and rules over the Un-united States of America. Keywords: USA, Trump, nationalism and populism.

  • Trump, Putin and the Us–Russia Relationship
    An accident waiting to happen: Trump, Putin and the Bobo Lo October 2017 US–Russia relationship AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN: TRUMP, PUTIN AND THE US–RUSSIA RELATIONSHIP The Lowy Institute is an independent policy think tank. Its mandate ranges across all the dimensions of international policy debate in Australia — economic, political and strategic — and it is not limited to a particular geographic region. Its two core tasks are to: • produce distinctive research and fresh policy options for Australia’s international policy and to contribute to the wider international debate • promote discussion of Australia’s role in the world by providing an accessible and high-quality forum for discussion of Australian international relations through debates, seminars, lectures, dialogues and conferences. Lowy Institute Analyses are short papers analysing recent international trends and events and their policy implications. The views expressed in this paper are entirely the author’s own and not those of the Lowy Institute. AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN: TRUMP, PUTIN AND THE US–RUSSIA RELATIONSHIP EXECUTIVE SUMMARY US–Russia relations are more acrimonious than at any time since the end of the Cold War. Initial hopes in Moscow that Donald Trump’s shock victory in the 2016 US presidential election might lead to a new quality of engagement have evaporated. Today, there is little talk of strategic cooperation, much less a ‘grand bargain’. The question instead is whether Washington and Moscow can manage their many differences, and avoid a dangerous escalation of tensions. The signs are not good. US sanctions against Russia have been strengthened. Accusations of Russian interference in the US democratic process have become more strident.
