About the book

The Tribalization of Politics explores how the conservative radio host 'tribalized' U.S. politics through his racially divisive, falsehood-ridden portrayal of President Obama. A vital analysis of the assault on truth and accuracy carried out by right-wing media as well as by politicians like Trump, The Tribalization of Politics reveals how the race baiting rhetoric of the most popular radio host in America against President Obama helped elect our current president, in the process threatening the democratic principles upon which our country was built.
