Great Again: How to Fix Our Crippled America

Reading this book is fascinating. Donald Trump simply doesn't hold back; he speaks his mind, you feel his enthusiasm, and you know that he is willing to stand 100% behind his words. If I am looking for a leader, someone that doesn't let up, that is able to initiate and lead change, and see things completed in full, there is no doubt that Donald Trump can do so. He leaves the reader without any sort of doubt that he has a track record in business that shows his ruthlessness in making fair deals, he shows that he is capable of working with foreign leaders and trade-dealers, and he also reveals how honest he is willing to be with the American public. What does he have to lose if someone disapproves of his ideas? His career does not lean on a career in politics, he has a wonderful company, and he can simply go back to living his luxurious life he himself has built. He has no reason to hold back. It's all or nothing for him, and you can feel it, which is why there is so much support for him, especially among the Republicans, that crave smaller government and less government spending. He knows he can get the job done, he knows the right people to surround himself with to ensure America's success. This book, therefore, is as authentic as it's going to get to Trump's views and his vision for a better America. I'm glad I read it-I would be a fool to think that anybody that has some sort of Super PAC or is being heavily funded by corporations of some sort would not have an un-biased view going into the Presidency. Trump is the only candidate that has truly convinced me he will stay true to every word he has said. He has no reason whatsoever not to. The book explains in as much detail as necessary, different visions and concerns Trump has. There have been critics that say this book is not specific enough. This book was not written to give all the details, but to give America a general but very clear understanding of where Trump stands. To understand Trump's immigration ideas, tax plan, foreign policy, etc. in even greater detail, there is research those individuals can do themselves. It's out there, but quite unnecessary to put in a book that is designed to give an overview, to welcome people to join and follow his campaign, where all of that information will be provided. Trump reveals the biased power of the media, the corruption in Washington among politicians, the reasons for inaction among elected officials, and shows Americans how we have fallen behind other developed countries in our economy, job creation, infrastructure, and military dominance. There is simply no denying it, and no politician is able to fully counter what Trump is saying. They may come up with a good one-liner on stage during a debate, but there is no doubt that the Obama Administration has been running America further and further into the ground, making the American people more reliant on the government, and preventing us from fulfilling our dreams. I have felt crippled ever since Obama took office, even though I tried and tried to jump on board and support him. I want to feel like an American again. Right now, I feel like a pawn in a chess match among Washington DC officials.

After listening to the entire book, I have no need to rave about it--it speaks for itself. It reminds me of Thomas Paine's "Common Sense," the pamphlet self-published in 1776 that was so influential in the lead up to the Declaration of Independence and the American Revolution. When Trump first announced the presidential run for 2016, I was like everyone else who lived in New York for years back in the 1990s and lived through 9/11 . At first I said to myself, "Oh, it's Trump again , this guy never seems to go away." But then REALITY set in. For myself and most of my friends, the past seven years since 2008 have been the worst I can remember. Everyone knew Obama was inevitable after what this nation and its military suffered the first decade of the 21st century but NO ONE KNEW HOW INCOMPETENT AND DISASTROUS Obama would be as "Commander-in-Chief." The mainstream media & Hollywood remain mired in delusion, contributing all the more to the national self-delusion of America. You've got a snake-oil salesman, lame-duck like Obama riding out his egotistical glory, laughing all the way to the bank. You have Hollywood scum like Quentin Tarantino, who is not only butt-ugly but an insult to the word "art," accusing Americans of being "white supremacists" to draw attention to himself & sell his upcoming movie--Tarantino is like the head of the KKK selling copies of Martin Luther King's "I Have a Dream Speech"--what a lying, hypocritical butt head. And these losers parade about claiming to be significant. Tarantino and Obama are like two sides of the same coin: spoiled, pampered, ignorant cardboard cut-outs who are not only totally overrated but weak, pathetic and an insult to their professions. TRUMP reminds me of when Reagan ran in 1980. I was eight years old. All of my highly educated, brainwashed baby-boomer 60s era relatives were finally disillusioned with Jimmy Carter (who is second or third behind Hoover and Obama as the most incompetent and unproductive presidents ever). The media began by making a mockery of the old movie actor, the "Gipper," or Uncle Ronnie "Reaguns" as they called him. My hippy relatives had all died of heroin overdose or were in rehab. I was just a kid but I knew that everything was wrong with America by 1979. Then Reagan shocked the establishment by winning in a landslide. After listening to Trump, following his philosophical evolution as an AMERICAN PRAGMATIST, and listening to this book--I'm thinking 2016 will be a Trump landslide. He will CRUSH Hilary and the broken-down jalopy of the once feared "Clinton Machine." The mainstream media with either ignore or trash this book--but that's to be expected. The "Fourth Estate," the so-called journalists and pundits, are the WALKING DEAD of the failed propaganda machine--I don't care whether it's ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, FOX. Why does Megyn Kelly take cheap shots at Trump every chance she gets? Simple--her ego and ambition makes Trump look like a choir boy by comparison. Face it, the American people recognize the news media "stars" for what they are--chattering PARROTS, the MOST IGNORANT AND OVERPAID CLASS IN AMERICA (next to Wall St. bankers & federal government bureaucrats). These latter-day pundits & opinion makers from the New York Times & the Washinton Toast to Whoopi Goldbug & Joy Jingleheimer Behar of "Room Without a View" are worse than any present-day lame Hollywood actors or directors in PRETENDING they know the difference between the diarrhea that comes out their mouths vs. that which flows out their a-holes. If Obama is the reincarnation of Lyndon B. Johnson, Trump is the closest thing since Reagan to a GENUINE LEADER in this country. Unlike the phonies & fossil remains of what was once called "journalism" whose companies are deservedly going bankrupt fast--Trump has been there and back like an American Buddha of Business--he floats like a butterfly and stings like a bee. The most important aspect of the Trump phenomenon is UNLIKE Barry Obama--he does not pretend to know it all, he just knows how to bring together the pragmatists, the intellects and the best talent to win the game. He is genuine. At a time when unemployment in the U.S. is REALISTICALLY MORE LIKE 25-40% of the able-bodied American population, Obama has been like a crack or heroin dealer passing out drugs & cheap kicks & feeding off the illegal immigration lobby to encourage the creation of a permanent dependent welfare class all while running up the national debt to 20 trillion. The political class (both Democrat & Republican lifers who sell their power to the highest bidder & their pet shop lackeys in the media) need a slap in the face and shave to step out of the way so "We the People" can turn this thing around. The citizens of this decaying and decadent nation are sick & tired of being the laughingstock of the world. The liberal ideology is dead except among a bunch of Ivory Tower hacks and the students they brainwash into believing their liberal education (indoctrination) is worth the lifelong student loan debt they incur & default on because the jobs are gone & the slave wage jobs left do not require an education & are could be done by robots. WAKE UP, AMERICA! Can the Stars & Stripes rise again before the tune changes from "U.S. Blues" to "Blues for Allah" or "The Fall of America?" Can the world's greatest democratic republic "Of the People, by the People & for the People" survive in the face of internal decay and violent threats from abroad? In this book, Trump answers with a resounding affirmation of the still untapped potential of this demoralized and "crippled" nation, and its revitalization across every walk of life. The believers are on the march chanting "All We Are Saying Is Give Trump a Chance!" If our leaders cannot deliver REAL change and an economic revival the likes of which hasn't happened since the end of World War Two--if we hand power to Hillary Clinton or Jeb Bush running on pure legacy to try to maintain the status quo, or another impotent, inexperience first-term senator stripling like an Obama, Cruz, or Rubio, or even worse, a has-been "Socialist" piece of cold fried chicken like Colonel B. Sanders of Vermont--if we really are capable of getting fooled yet again...then, people get ready because the United States of America is doomed and it will be the end of "freedom" as we once knew it.

Contrary to what the title might indicate, I'm enjoying reading CRIPPLED AMERICA. It was interesting to know how Trump chose the cover photo, which is absolutely essential for this message. The book is organized with clean, logical precision. I like the way Trump begins by tracing his campaign opening and showing specifically how most of the mainstream media responded in ridiculous misrepresentation, which is still going on and escalating. I know Trump's right. I'm watching it happening day by day. The photo collection is fantastic! This book is even better than I thought it would be. It reads in a brisk rhythm, in a no nonsense, conversational way, like listening to an engaging speaker, not at all like plowing through a dry political tome which makes no sense and will never touch reality. However, the book might be hard to read if you thought unbiased journalism was being presented by the elite-owned mainstream media. You might feel you've been betrayed when you realize you've been fed twisted slams on Trump's words, deeds, visions, and plans. But wouldn't you rather know if you're being betrayed, and then begin working with someone who knows how to fix a badly broken world? Of course first you need to get past the lie that everything's hunky dory. Prozac pleasantries and phobic levels of Political Correctness have coalesced with pervasive Socialism promotion to have the masses literally dead to the world... as it's being manipulated into the increasing control of High Monopoly Gamers. I'm thankful that actual solutions are in the same book as the exposure of the problems. Remember that Trump is unique in knowing what he's doing; his growing slew of copy cats don't know. What's sad is some copycats don't even know that they're copying, or who they're mimicking in their empty pea heads. It's time we bucked up and acknowledged the true visionary, a visionary who can get his plans manifested with effective efficiency. Maybe jealousy, hypocrisy and purposeful lying to cause harm should be cured or dammed once and for all... An aside about now having two copies of this world saving literary work... What I love about buying books from my phone and reading on my Kindle ap there/here is I had my copy of a timely book like this at the opening of the morning of its release on November 3. It was estimated by Amazon that I wouldn't get my physical copy in the mail until maybe November 11. (It arrived in the mail this afternoon!) Thank you, Jeff Bezos for Amazon and Kindle! As far as the long endowed/endured major publishing houses go, Simon and Schuster is one of the best, IMO, in being less owned by cultural behavior manipulators. Kudos to them for being savvy enough to work with Trump. But if not for Jeff Bezos being his own person who isn't blindly steeped into socialism fronted by liberalism, none of my books/shorts on Kindle would have ever been published. Thanks Jeff! AND, if Trump becomes our president I won't have to fear for my well-being, safety, and life if my politically incorrect books begin selling! Better yet I might be able to keep some of my income based on Trump's Tax plan outlined here. Go President Trump!

For all that I have felt that is wrong with our wonderful country for the past many years, this book has given me hope that we will persevere to Greatness and freedom once again. I have NOT watched T.V. NEWS since 1998 when I felt that mostly bad news was on and that most of the journalism was 'YELLOW'! The journalists have become the news and the stars, and they seem very angry if challenged...so the news has been off. This book lets us know just what is wrong and how to solve the many problems....(I feel so Enlightened!) One of the problems I would like to see addressed is with the drug conglomerates which outright 'discourage' natural products use (Supplements like Vitamins, Minerals, Herbs, Amino Acids (smallest recognizable particle of a protein) and especially SAM-e which erases pain, creates a great mood and has the great 'side effect' of detoxing the liver and much more; My last order was from Amazon in the Jarrow brand, 200mg 60 tabs; one to two tabs, one to two times daily on an empty stomach (not for anyone taking Rx Drugs for depression!!! you must ween off of Rx drugs with doctors assistance to take this:-)). in 2000 My back Doctor approved SAM-e for me for pain and I have taken it ever since. with much improved mood also! These drug companies make sure that these items are NOT COVERED by most insurance companies and not Medicare, (and call any doctor that uses supplements 'quacks'...) by lying about test results and giving false information (testimony) about products that work wonderfully for me. My urologist has an 'ANTI AGING' CERTIFICATE (DEGREE?) YET HE WILL ONLY USE IT FOR HIMSELF... I assume because he does not wish to be called a 'QUACK' , possibly loosing his MD license or?! There needs to be reform in our medical fields to encourage the use of NATURAL PRODUCTS (SUPPLEMENTS...and especially Homeopathic Remedies that have no side effects...the Queens of England have used these Remedies since the early 1930's I believe, and have had a Naturopath on call 24 hours a day...from what I have read) BEFORE using DRUGS ( that will cause deficiencies like the most popular Cholesterol medication (I was given free samples yet declined to take them after i read the many side EFFECTS it can cause... one of which, (and not listed in my WalMart Rx info paper), info which I found on-line, is that it depletes CoQ10 ... a deficiency of CoQ10 causes heart attacks. Consumers of Prescription Drugs have a right to know exactly what nutrients any DRUG depletes, when it is used by us consumers! SUPPLEMENTS NEED TO BE COVERED BY THE INSURANCE COMPANIES AND MEDICARE AND MEDICAID....wee need the freedom to choose how we heal. I am hoping that Donald Trump will read this review and solve this problem along with all of the other problems he is solving. Even before being elected, I have noticed that Senators and even our President AND Putin, are changing what they do when Donald Trump talks. Now that is POWER folks! Warmest Wishes RX companies do not (like many of the Eye Doctors have taken to recommending eye supplements. I understand that LESS radiation and Chemo can be used on cancer patients when certain supplements are used (before, during and after these treatments), because they increase the effectiveness of both treatments.

Crippled America is a fascinating detailed account of Donald Trump’s plans for restoring America to greatness. Trump is running for president because of his concerns about the downhill slide of the United States in the areas of manufacturing, foreign relations, health care, the tax code, the educational system, illegal immigration and more. He points out that our military must be built up and that this will provide jobs for our people making equipment, airplanes, etc. Also we must return many jobs in foreign countries back to the United States. He will do this via changes in the business taxes and ending loop holes for off shore accounts. Woven throughout the book are Trumps ideas for taking action and changing things. He believes the federal government should not be telling local schools how to educate our children. He says the gridlock we have in our government must end and the government must protect us and our freedoms as the Constitution states. Trump is not without experience by any means. He has extensive business and construction experience working with a variety of people to satisfy building codes and other red tape and build the many buildings and golf courses and businesses that he has. This may make for a better president than someone whose experience is only in politics. He is brash, forceful and determined. Though he has stepped on toes and seems arrogant, he also is honest and a perfectionist. After reading his books I think he knows how to get things done and has the best interests of our country at heart. I am impressed by the fact that Trump’s father mentored him on his own construction work and taught him to be meticulous about everything – checking every detail, aiming for perfection, and keeping his word. Trump is a graduate of the Wharton School of Finance. He does not smoke or drink and never has. He is a life long Presbyterian and wonders about the silencing of Christians occurring in our culture. He will promote freedom of speech for all views. If you aren’t certain about voting for Trump, read this book.

Great book. You will be amazed at how Fake News media can make up stories and distort his policies after reading this book. For example, his immigration policy is to stop "illegal immigrants" who came to US illegally and committed crimes in US. He also wants to stop granting residency to potential immigrants who don't have work skills in US and replying on social welfare for living. He has a good reason to do so because illegal immigrants and non productive immigrants don't bring in benefits to this nation, but cost US taxpayers tremendous amount of money every year. He specially indicated that he welcomes those who love US and share America values to come to US. But Fake News Media's mouth, it became that Trump doesn't welcome immigrants. The Fake News Media's point is that everyone, including Trump's family, who live in US is an immigrant or successor of immigrant and he is not supposed to do so. What Fake News Media trying to refute is not what Trump proposed. All the other points in this book are common sense, but Obama administration failed to recognize these. This book is worth reading. I would recommend everyone by-pass all fake news media reporting and start to give a glimpse at Trump's policies by reading this book.

It is important not to use TV and mass -media as a FILTER as the "anchor people" proudly and vainly think they are! They might think that we have elected them to rule us. WE HAVE NOT ! We have all been given a brain. We do not need the 24 hour a day analysis of these over paid quasi-intellectuals (if even that !) to interpret HOW we should evaluate people whom , we the people have elected; but, these leaders are now subjugated and imprisoned intellectually by their popularity of the media not of us, the people We do not need a mouthpiece for our thoughts on all phases of the leader we have a duty to elect.If I filter out the nourishment and vitamins from my food, I will be very weak; our LEADERS are never allowed to speak to the public without TV's brutal filtering process ! and biased dissection and tongue-lashing immediately after a leader opens his/her mouth. At least ,this book, is soon to be president Donald J. Trump's own personal AUTO- biography . . .! not third person calumny or character castigation ! , but, his own first person account of his ideals and thoughts. Even in the criminal courts of justice, a man is allowed to speak for himself ! So should, we, the people, do less for a potential leader of one of the largest most powerful countries on the globe, than read his thoughts and study him , also, unfiltered by news propaganda ?? Our TV anchormen and women are given more TALK TIME than any elected political leader or president without interference ! We think that we know politics and religions, and are FREE , but, we only know BIASED EDITORIALS . . . Thank God , that there are people who are independent thinkers still left and read first hand autobiographies and have the moral courage to stand out and be targets for our already insidiously silencing media powers! These are not times of political parties , but, the warriors of MEDIA against the will of we, the PEAOPLE .

Let me start off by saying that I'm not Pro-Trump, or Anti-Trump. I don't lean left or right politically, and I think it's important for each citizen to back a politician based on his/her personal preferences, not on whether you label yourself as a Republican or Democrat. After Trump announced his candidacy, I was interested in learning more about him and what qualifies him to be our next President of the USA. I knew he was a smart and wealthy businessman, but that's about it. I had agreed with some of his early political statements, and disagreed with some too. So in buying this book I really wanted to try to better understand his policies and his process to accomplish his proposals. In his book, he re-states a lot of what he's been saying in his public statements (debates, speeches, etc.) about immigration, healthcare, education, etc. I was wondering if I could have saved my money since I had pretty much heard it all before, It took a little while before he really started explaining his policies and how he plans to accomplish what he wants to do. I don't find him bashing any of the other candidates, or taking cheap shots (which the election has unfortunately turned into). Rather, he seems to simply disagree, or sometimes agree, with other candidates, and leaves it at that, then briefly outlines his proposal to accomplish one task or another. I'm sure anything more detailed would triple the size of this book, and probably have lost my attention a long time ago. He keeps it short and sweet dedicating each short chapter to a specific political topic. It's an interesting read...will I vote for him??? That's still to be determined, but I think it's a good quick look inside the mind of a very smart business person, and potentially, the next President.

De fácil lectura.Lo terminé de leer en dos días. Expone los puntos claves de la ideología de Donald Trump. Lo compré porque vi una nota de Carlos Slim que decía que para derrotar a Trump debiamos leer este libro.

Great book. Easy read and Very consistent with how Trump presents himself at his rallys or in debates. Though the fake 1 and 2 star reviews mention this as a bad thing.

Não se deixe levar pela mídia tendenciosa. Vá direto na fonte. Este livro, escrito pelo próprio Presidente, deixa bem claro quem é Donald Trump e o que ele vai fazer para salvar a América, debilitada, após anos de governos fracassados. Recomendo!

Nos revela el auténtico D. Trump. Una persona que entusiasma y que puede ser peligrosa pero que ha triunfado a su nivel de empresa. Genera antagonismo y rendición fervientes, y ha hecho esta campaña interesante. Apostaría a que si no le matan o tiene un stroke será el próximo presidente.

good and usefull book to read and use.
