Review of christian vanderbrouk's books
The Bulwark published Christian Vanderbrouk’s book, “The Trump Effect,” last week. Vanderbrouk is a political commentator who worked in the George W. Bush administration for eight years. In his review, he points out unnerving parallels between Vanderbrouk’s Turnbull series and the popular novel “The Turner Diaries.” Both novels depict a fictional white nationalist revolution and global genocide, and both books feature insurgents who use a truck-borne fertilizer bomb to attack the FBI and military installations.
