About the Book

Leading expert and US and Australian politics insider Bruce Wolpe reveals the many ways in which Australia has already been damaged by Donald Trump. Seeping into Australia from above and below, Trumpism has contaminated public debate, emboldened local political and religious extremists, diminished Australia's economy and international relations-and much more.

Wolpe predicts America's democracy won't survive a second Trump term. The implications for Australia and for the world are shocking. He explains how Australia can draw on its strengths to protect its democracy, economy and society from Trumpism, and where Australia is vulnerable and needs to build guardrails. He warns Australia might also face an existential question about ties with its most important ally.

'True, timely and terrifying' Sean Kelly, author of The Game

'As Wolpe masterfully shows us, the lesson of Trump is that our democracy is not a "set and forget" proposition, but rather demands constant vigilance.' - Sydney Morning Herald


'A timely warning and a potential survival guide' John Barron, Planet America

'A forensic analysis of how President Donald Trump invaded Australia's politics and prospects' Laura Tingle, ABC TV

'Highly recommended' - Larry Sabato, University of Virginia

'A must read for anyone who cares about Australian democracy' Zoe Daniel, Independent MP for Goldstein and author of Greetings from Trumpland

'This is a book you should read.' Natalie Barr, Sunrise
