A Warning to Save Democracy from the Next Trump

Publisher's summary

The author behind the “eye-popping” (CNN) #1 New York Times bestseller A Warning presents an urgent look at how our deeply divided nation is setting the stage for “The Next Trump.”

Donald Trump will be president again, whether he is on the ballot or not. That is because Trumpism is overtaking the Republican Party and will mount a vigorous comeback, potentially in the hands of a savvier successor. This prophecy will come true, according to Miles Taylor, if we do not learn the lessons of the recent past.

With the 2024 election approaching, the formerly “Anonymous” official is back with bombshell revelations and a sobering national forecast. Through interviews with dozens of ex-Trump aides and government leaders, Taylor predicts what could happen inside “Trump 2.0,” the White House of a more competent and more formidable copycat.

What sounds like a political thriller—from shadowy presidential powers and CIA betrayals to angry henchmen and assassination plots—is instead America’s political reality, as Taylor uses untold stories to shed light on the ex-President’s unfulfilled plans, the dark forces haunting our lives, and how we can thwart the rise of extremism in the United States.

Blowback is also a surprisingly emotional and self-critical portrait of a dissenter, whose own unmasking provides a vivid warning about what happens when we hide the truth from others and, most importantly, ourselves.

Highly recommend

Wow, what a story! Frightening, compelling, inspiring all at once. Thank you, Miles, for your commitment to the truth.

A must read for anyone who cares about our country

it took a great deal of courage to come out against Trump, and this book is a warning to all Americans about the dangers of electing someone like him again. it is imperative that we follow the natural conclusion reached.

Our vote matters more now than ever, but more importantly, so does our conviction. Thank you, Miles, Taylor. Our country, and our democracy stand a better chance thanks to Patriots like you.

Raw and Relatable.

As a former moderate republican, this book makes me want to act. The honesty of Miles’ account is refreshing despite the sobering reality of his warning. I’m no Cassandra, I just think it’s worth a listen. If you’re on the fence about using your monthly credit, give it a shot, you won’t be disappointed.

Every American needs to read this!

What an insight to the flaws of our system from someone on the inside of our government. I’m thankful for Miles for being brave enough to come forward with his story and hope others do the same.

Excellent review of recent history

Again from the inside details that it’s good to remind ourselves of. Very well written.

Listened twice

So well written and so much to absorb that I listened twice. This is a book I would recommend to everyone.

Amazing, unbelievable, eye-opening, and maddening.

Years from now, when America is back on the rails, people will look back at Miles Taylor as an undisputed American hero. what a ride... Miles gives us hope that we can make it through this dark era.

Act of Courage

Thank you Miles Taylor for your courage to tell the truth. Your book was enlightening to say the least and your warning will not be forgotten.

Things were apparently worse than we could have imagined!

This was an insightful piece of work. It was also filled with ample warning of what the next demagogue with authoritarian leanings and a bit more intelligence could do to this country if she or he gained power.

Nightmare Scenario

Scarier than a Stephen King novel. Insightful thoughts about a future MAGA presidency. I can’t stop listening yet it’s a nightmare story. Excellent
