Review: The Elephant in the Room

The Elephant in the Room The Elephant in the Room by Jon Ronson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This short yet fascinating insight into the rise of Trump is a kind of follow up to Them: Adventures with Extremists where Ronson recalls sneak filming the brining effigy theatre at Bohemian Grove where he bonded with and helped launch the career of Info Wars radical conservative conspiracy theorist Alex Jones. Reconnecting with Jones as his inside track to the burgeoning Trump campaign where he explores the bizarre influence Jones seems to have on Trump while both operate with confidante Roger Stone lurking in the background in the role of provacetuer and political tricks.
