What happens when loyalty to a leader eclipses allegiance to the Constitution and the rule of law?

Trumpism is a nativist, anti-establishment political movement fueled by populism, a cult of personality, and contempt for the rules. Even though Donald Trump was the vehicle for this movement, Trumpism is now bigger than him. Trumpism has stretched the boundaries of executive power, chipped away at the authority of the judiciary, and exposed the fragility of democracy.

This book urges vigilance, reform, and civic responsibility. For anyone concerned about the future of American democracy, it is essential reading.

To the defenders of democracy-

• The judges who ruled with courage.
• The public servants who upheld the law.
• The citizens who refused to be silent.

And to future generations-

May you inherit a justice system that is stronger, fairer, and more faithful to the truth.
