Conservative radio host Michael Savage examines the initial appointments, speeches, tweets and history of Donald …
This was an interesting read. Picking this up and forgetting all other sources, it's easy to get drawn in and understand the savage perspective. And he does make some fair points occasionally when he isn't bogged down with the name-calling ("Emperor Barry", "Napolean of Anti-Americanism Soros" and "Commie Sanders" are particularly memorable)- infrastructure is badly broken, co-pays are important to prevent abuse, the influence of corporations in politics, etc. But those are difficult to find because he spends most of the book ranting about the "mental disorder called liberalism" and the previous Liar-in-Chief's best efforts to destroy the country.
His other arguments are less convincing: it's global cooling not warming, govt shld get out of the important things like healthcare & education ("the more important something is, the less you want government involved"), immigrants are to blame for the rise (?) in crime & deadly diseases.
