I, King Trump offers a sweeping, incisive exploration of Donald Trump's return to the White House and the political age he has transformed. With a sharp narrative voice and accessible analysis, Marcelo Ungarit reveals how Trump reshaped American democracy-not through policy, but through story, emotion, and spectacle. The book follows the rise of a leader who turned grievance into collective identity, economics into a weapon of intimidation, and diplomacy into a stage performance.
From tariff wars and geopolitical tensions to the collapse of bipartisan trust at home, Ungarit shows how Trump's influence extends far beyond his presidency, shaping a global wave of leaders who imitate his method: divide, provoke, and dominate the narrative. Inside these pages you will discover: How Trump reframed resentment as a political engine How "America First" altered alliances, diplomacy, and global stability How the President transformed truth into a negotiable asset How Trumpism became a global template for far-right movements Why his shadow will outlast his time in office More than a political portrait, I, King Trump is the story of an era where emotion overtakes reason, spectacle overtakes governance, and the power of myth shapes the fate of nations.
A compelling, essential read for anyone seeking to understand the United States of today-and the world being remade around it.
