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.

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.

From Donald Trump we get ‘the weave.’ From Peter Dutton we got the unraveling. Voters rejected Americanisation and carried out a collective act of Australianisation.
Australia voted for its politics to remain Australian, using its uniquely Australian model of democracy to re-elect an emphatically Australian prime minister. (And Peter Dutton was more Ron DeSantis than Donald Trump.) My latest.
