Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * WALL STREET JOURNAL BESTSELLER *WASHINGTON POST BESTSELLER * Andy Borowitz, one of the funniest people in America (CBS Sunday Morning), brilliantly chronicles our embrace of anti-intellectualism (Walter Isaacson) in American politics, from Ronald Reagan to Dan Quayle, from George W. Bush to Sarah Palin, to its apotheosis in Donald J. Trump.Andy Borowitz has been called a Swiftian satirist (The Wall Street Journal) and one of the countrys finest satirists (The New York Times). Millions of fans and New Yorker readers enjoy his satirical news column The Borowitz Report. Now, in Profiles in Ignorance, he delivers a wittily alarming polemic that tracks the evolution of American politics from grounds for gravitas to festival of idiocy (The New York Times). Borowitz argues that over the past fifty years, American politicians have grown increasingly allergic to knowledge, and mass media have encouraged the election of ignoramuses by elevating candidates who are better at performing than thinking. Starting with Ronald Reagans first campaign for governor of California in 1966 and culminating with the election of Donald J. Trump to the White House, Borowitz shows how, during the age of twenty-four-hour news and social media, the US has elected politicians to positions of great power whose lack of the most basic information is terrifying. In addition to Reagan, Quayle, Bush, Palin, and Trump, Borowitz covers a host of congresspersons, senators, and governors who have helped lower the bar over the past five decades. Profiles in Ignorance aims to make us both laugh and cry: laugh at the idiotic antics of these public figures, and cry at the cataclysms these icons of ignorance have caused. But most importantly, the book delivers a call to action and a cause for optimism: History doesnt move in a straight line, and we can change course if we act now. An instant New York Times bestseller: the first work of straight nonfiction from Andy Borowitz, Americas sharpest political satirist (The Washington Post), Profiles in Ignorance: How Americas Politicians Got Dumb and Dumber examines modern American politics in five entertaining and enlightening profiles.
