Under the Cover of Chaos - Trump and the Battle for the American Right

Looking at the political and social forces behind the election of Donald Trump and the present US administration, from a leading figure in Cultural Studies. Grossberg argues that the chaos and hyperactivity assigned to Trump's psychology has confused his critics, enabling the underhand implementation of a far-right political agenda.
