Critic Reviews

“David Drucker serves up well-reported portraits of a host of Republican and conservative players, neatly capturing their struggles to navigate the strange new world of post-Trump GOP politics. Watching the 2024 hopefuls adapt to the GOP base’s hunger for Trumpian performative populism, racial dog whistling, and own-the-libs bluster is almost enough to make you pity them. Almost.” (Greg Sargent, Washington Post columnist)

"Deeply reported, gracefully written, and eminently readable. Hurray for David Drucker!" (Brit Hume, senior political analyst, Fox News Channel)

"One man may dominate the race, but In Trump's Shadow is a comprehensive and indispensable form guide to the wide field of contenders for what may be a tumultuous Republican presidential contest in 2024." (Gerard Baker, editor at large, The Wall Street Journal)

A surprise account

I wasn’t going to buy a book about a list of potential candidates for a 2024 election three years before the ballot will occur – I mean to say so much can change in a year let alone three years and yet Drucker has done an outstanding job writing a compelling account of the list of wannabes who will take on the challenge of winning the presidency in 2024. Drucker demonstrates this game is far from over, everything is up for grabs and yet all could be lost if the main man pushes through. It is quite extraordinary the hold that Trump has on the party in 2021 but what makes this book so interesting is that that is not how politics work, that is not how politicians think, they all think they should be the president and they’re not prepared to wait. This is the story not so much about the future of the GOP but the future of American democracy and whether the next presidential candidate for the Republican Party is a liberal Democrat or a mere player in the shadow of Trump.
