UK publication day for the paperback edition of The Forever War. Two new chapters on Trump 2.0 and the 2024 election. The Trump presidency has been 250 years in the making. If you look at US history in a different light, as I try to do so in the book his shocking presidency isn’t such a shock.

Great to see the updated UK paperback of The Forever War out in the wild in London. New chapters on Trump 2.0 and the 2024 campaign.
It’s the 250-year backstory of Trumpism. It’s the history, stupid.

Another untrustworthy rich guy. Good interview with Paul Krugman and Jacob Silverman, author of Gilded Rage. Poor rich guys feel unappreciated. The only reason they are pushing AI is because they think they can make $ off it and us.
