America has a serious problem in having Donald Trump as a national leadera problem that far too many Americans are refusing to acknowledge. Choosing to close our eyes to the disturbing realities of the Trump presidency will not make them go away. Whether in regard to his personal improprieties or in the incessant rhetoric from the White House, Donald Trump is simply incapable of being honest. His consuming narcissism prevents him from admitting to obvious missteps, and refusal to do so leads to what this book labels chain dishonesty. Yet in Trumpism, there is always a clear purpose in concealing the truth, hence the term blindness, by design.
