The Case for Trump is a New York Times bestselling biography that offers a deep look into how an unconventional businessman turned into one of the most impactful presidents in American history. Written by Victor Davis Hanson, an award-winning historian and political commentator, this book reveals the story of how Donald Trump, with no previous political or military experience, managed to defeat sixteen well-qualified Republican candidates, outmaneuver a Democrat with immense financial resources, and confront a media landscape that was largely against him. The book explains that Trump recognized and seized a political opportunity by advocating for the working-class people in America’s heartland, who felt neglected by the elite on both coasts. Hanson argues that it was Trump’s unique instincts and boundless energy that allowed him to tackle outdated political norms, drive significant policy changes, and bring forth a new approach in both domestic and foreign affairs. Despite Trump's unpredictable presidency, the book asserts that America needed someone like him, an outsider, to challenge the status quo and address issues that traditional politicians shied away from. As the nation faced years of stagnation, Trump's rise represented a critical turning point for a country ready for transformation.
