In America: Tales from Trump Country

Description

Washington correspondent for Ireland's public broadcaster, RT, from 2013 to 2017, Caitr�ona Perry has earned her reputation as a reliable source of truth. In her first book, In America, she goes beyond the news reports and delves into the American heartland where she witnessed the rise of Trump at first-hand. Bringing to the table the voices of those who voted for Trump, Perry reveals just what is really happening in America. You probably know why some people didn't vote for Donald Trump; now find out why others did. Perry is an award-winning journalist. She's worked as a broadcast news correspondent since 2000, and as of January 2018, she is the co-anchor of RT's flagship evening news program, Six One. One of the first mainstream journalists to suggest that Trump could actually win, Caitr�ona Perry's account of America leading up to the 2016 election is the definitive one, told from the unique perspective of an outsider looking in at the American political system. While Caitr�ona has been in the news herself, for her promotion, award nominations, and more famously, for her unusual and viral encounter in the Oval Office with President Trump, her passion is for presenting the news as it happens, with neutrality and untainted by partisanship. "A fresh perspective on the supporters of Donald Trump.a sharp, vivid report about Trump voters. A clear-eyed portrait of Americans' bitterness, hope, and fear."--Kirkus Reviews.
