Synopsis

This is not a book about Donald Trump. It is a book about what we do with what we have already seen.

Eva Sara Landau was born into a family marked by Nazism, communism, and exile. She grew up on stories of concentration camps, political persecution, and escapes carried out with nothing but a suitcase. Years later it became her turn: persecuted for denouncing corruption, she was forced to flee her country and begin again from nothing in the United States.

From that memory she recognized something many still refuse to name. The same patterns of abuse of power, censorship, and persecution that hollowed out entire nations are beginning to surface in the country that once promised to be a refuge. When she looked at the political war waged against Donald J. Trump, she did not see a savior. She saw the machinery she already knew, turned against one more man for daring to challenge the system.

Part memoir and part warning, Understanding Donald J. Trump traces one woman's journey from a Latin American dictatorship to the staff of a historic American presidential campaign. Drawing on her heritage as the granddaughter of survivors and her years in defense of human rights, Landau offers Hispanic readers, and every American, a way to read the present through the hard lessons of the past.

This is not a plea for pity or a call to fanaticism. It is a call to responsibility. Because the real dividing line is no longer between right and left, but between those who would rather not see, and those who, having seen, refuse to betray what they know.

When you close these pages, one question will remain in your hands: What will you do with what you now know?
