Publishers Description: The shocking first-draft history of the Trump regime, and its clear authoritarian impulses, based on the viral Internet phenom The Weekly List.�In the immediate aftermath of Donald Trumps election as president, Amy Siskind, a former Wall Street executive and the founder of The New Agenda, began compiling a list of actions taken by the Trump regime that pose a threat to our democratic norms. Under the headline: Experts in authoritarianism advise to keep a list of things subtly changing around you, so youll remember� Siskinds Weekly List� began as a project she shared with friends, but it soon went viral and now has more than half a million viewers every week. Compiled in one volume for the first time, The List is a first draft history and a comprehensive accounting of Donald Trumps first year. Beginning with Trumps acceptance of white supremacists the week after the election and concluding a year to the day later, we watch as Trump and his regime chips away at the rights and protections of marginalized communities, of women, of us all, via Twitter storms, unchecked executive action, and shifting rules and standards. The List chronicles not only the scandals that made headlines but just as important, the myriad smaller but still consequential unprecedented acts that otherwise fall through cracks. It is this granular detail that makes The List such a powerful and important book. For everyone hoping to #resistTrump, The List is a must-have guide to what we as a country have lost in the wake of Trumps election. #Thisisnotnormal
