As RTÉ’s Washington correspondent, Caitríona Perry has earned a reputation as a reliable source of truth as the world tries to make sense of the maelstrom of shocking headlines emanating from Donald Trump’s America. In her first book, she goes beyond the news reports and delves into the American heartland where she witnessed his rise at first hand, while others were blindsided by his victory.
Bringing to the table the voices of those who voted for President Trump, the ones whose opinions didn’t coalesce with acceptable mainstream discourse – Hillary Clinton’s so-called ‘basket of deplorables’ – Caitríona Perry reveals just what is really happening in America right now
This is the story of the American people who were angry and disillusioned by traditional politics. It is the story of the workers of the industrial heartland, of the women of America, of immigrant communities, of the people who viewed a wealthy businessman from the city of New York as ‘one of us’. This is the story of the people who shook the world.

‘From the Mexico border to the Oval Office, Caitríona Perry brings us to the coalface of one of the most tempestuous and extraordinary opening periods of any presidency in modern memory.’ Ryan Tubridy
