Book 'American Overthrow' Examines Alignment of Trump Administration Actions with Kremlin Objectives
A forthcoming book by Keir Giles, titled 'American Overthrow: Moscow’s Endgame in Its Long War with Washington,' analyzes the actions of President Trump's administration following his hypothetical 2025 return to the U.S. presidency. The book suggests that many of these actions align with the Kremlin's objectives and that the U.S. under President Trump has begun to mimic Russia. Giles, a Russia-watcher, observes parallels between the Trump administration's policies and Russia's consolidation of power, including demands for annexation, embrace of war crimes, a 'war on truth and history,' purges, weaponization of justice, and the deployment of federal paramilitaries. The book specifically highlights the Trump administration's determination to force Ukraine's surrender to Russia as a clear example of this alignment. Giles examines America's transformation through the lens of Kremlinology, aiming to reveal alarming implications.
