Summary: "The November 2016 election changed everything. Experts were left astonished by Donald Trump's victory, coming--seemingly--out of nowhere. But in many parts of America, there was a very different feeling: one of relief and of vindication. Real Americans finally felt that their voices had been heard. [This book] is RNC spokesperson Kayleigh McEnany's journey to listen to those frustrated people who were left behind by Washington, DC, and who formed the populist movement that would lead to President Trump's historic win. To tell their stories, she traveled from a family cabin in Ohio to the church-dotted back roads of South Carolina, from sunny Florida to a Texas BBQ joint--and, of course, eventually to the White House. This exploration of the American heartland provides a fascinating and eye-opening account of the powerful grassroots movement that changed the landscape of political campaigns forever. These salt-of-the-earth people share their deeply personal tales and the issues that are most important to them, such as illegal immigration, safety from terrorist attacks, and religious freedom. Kayleigh also features interviews with key political figures--including Ivanka Trump, Jared Kushner, Lara Trump, Governor Mike Huckabee, Secretary Ben Carson, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, and many more--and their experiences on the road leading up to President Trump's historic win. During a time of stark political division, Kayleigh discovers the common thread of humanity that binds us. Through faith in God and unimaginable strength, these forgotten men and women have overcome, even when their leaders turned their heads."--Dust jacket.
