John Jay's Journal, with Friends

Explorations into the Trump Administration, 2017-2021, 3rd Edition

Beschreibung

This book addresses political questions that have been part of the public discourse during the Trump administration, 2017-2021. The various issues are framed in short essays and then matched with statements by our Founders on the same or comparable issues with a view to understanding how Washington, Adams, Jefferson, Hamilton, and Madison, etc. would have viewed the significant political questions of our day and their responses thereto. Indeed, what would our Founders have thought of the Trump administration and the attendant atmosphere of vituperative partisanship? On issue after issue-immigration, the character of public servants, corruption, the right to vote, freedom of religion, fake news and others-our Founders had much to say. The reader will find that many of the political matters that concern us also were problems for our Founders. The 48 short essays in this book take up what are sometimes called "hot button issues" along with our Founder's reaction to them. Forty-two of the essays are written by an author who writes under the name of John Jay. He is a former university professor who has taught and lectured at many schools of higher learning in the United States and abroad. Along with several friends, John Jay show us how to have a meaningful conversation with many of the country's founders about the issues that are most meaningful to us today.
