Download or read book How to Destroy America written by Samuel Chen and published by Archway Publishing. This book was released on 2022-07-19 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It’s been hard to maintain a thriving dictatorship over the past 100 years as the United States of America has sought to clamp down on authoritarian regimes. But that changed with the election of Donald J. Trump as president, who continues to influence America’s political climate. Trump stepped away from the world stage, turning his attention to the United States of America instead. Shisheng Chen, who escaped from China after being forbidden to leave, calls out the folly of Trump’s policies in this book, arguing that in this age of the Internet, America needs to flex its muscles on behalf of freedom. He emphasizes that the world is a global village and we’re all interconnected. A butterfly in Africa flapping its wings could produce a butterfly effect, causing the United States to collapse. The author argues that Trump’s short-sightedness and arrogance will inevitably lead the United States into decline. As president, he even became friends with rogue countries, emboldening bad behavior from other nations. Join the author as he takes global dictators to task and calls out misguided policies in How to Destroy America.
