John Ehrenberg's book explores how Donald Trump has exploited American racial tensions, using race as a political instrument to convert the Republican Party into a threatened racial order. The book traces the GOP's approach to racial matters from Goldwater to George W. Bush, examining how racial animus has helped secure the party's electoral coalition and enable Trump's flirtation with white nationalism. Ehrenberg concludes that the Republican Party will find it difficult to jettison its 50-year history of embracing and amplifying white racial animus.

In his book, John Ehrenberg delves into the profound transformation of the Republican Party's approach to exploiting American racial tensions, as embodied by Donald Trump both as a candidate and as president. While previous works on Trump's use of race have often been fragmented or secondary to broader narratives, Ehrenberg's study centers on the explicit weaponization of race by Trump, providing a comprehensive historical and theoretical framework. Through his analysis, Ehrenberg demonstrates that while Trump draws on previous Republican strategies, he distinguishes himself by his unwavering intention to transform the Republican Party into a political tool of a threatened racial order.
The book traces the evolution of the Grand Old Party's (GOP) stance on racial issues, from the constitutional objections of Goldwater to the overtures of George W. Bush toward Black citizens. Ehrenberg examines the role of racial animus in dismantling a significant portion of the Democratic Party's electoral coalition, paving the way for Trump's flirtation with white nationalism. He concludes that the Republican Party, having embraced and amplified white racial animus and resentment for over half a century, will find it challenging to abandon this legacy.
White Nationalism and the Republican Party is a valuable resource for academics and students engaged in the study of American politics, voting behavior, American party politics, race and American politics, twentieth-century American history, political leadership, politics of inequality, race and public policy. It offers a comprehensive examination of the historical, social, and political factors that have shaped the GOP's approach to race and its implications for American society.
