Psycosocial Political Dysfunction of the Republican Party by

Dr Daniel Brubaker.

A doctor's opinion on the politics of his party, the Republican Party, does an important investigation of the facts and compares them with what toddlers do so that we understand why things are not flowing as they should and why past presidents have brought the party to its current state. You have enough hope and clarity to help lead your party toward the new growth it needs. My question is if he can do it. An interesting read.

Brubaker really went for it in this book. He analyses the Republicans and has no problem stating some really bold and controversial claims, like the one that they are acting like children and even analyzing why is that the case. Through an exploration of neuropsychological development and crowd psychology, Brubaker sheds light on why some party members struggle to navigate truth in today's political landscape. However, I think that some of the author's conclusions about the psychological profiles of Republican leaders are overly speculative and potentially divisive, but maybe that’s something he went for on purpose. Either way, he doesn’t hold back. All in all, this is a timely and thought-provoking read that encourages readers to critically examine American politics in its current state.

This is a compelling book about America’s Republican politics. I really liked the observations and examples included in several pages that help to understand the theory in a simpler way.

This book gives a very interesting overview of American politics, specifically the changes in the Republican party that makes it what it is today. It does also show the extreme division and inability in US politics to see any good in the opposing ide, which is something both major US parties suffer from. I recommend this book to anyone with an interest in US politics.

The book delves into controversial political topics that involve the Republican party, and whether it is true or not will all be on the reader. The reader can choose what to believe. Indeed, the Republican Party is not how it used to be; however, it is not as bad as it looks. I applaud the author for using research to present his views on the Republican Leaders. But is it an absolute truth? Only people who live in the Red States would know because these people are their chosen representatives.

Decoding political dysfunction of the Republican Party becomes an easy task after reading this book.

"Psychosocial Political Dysfunction of the Republican Party" by Dr. Daniel Brubaker really doesn't say much that most of us haven't already thought. The difference is that the author takes the surface-level opinions and digs into them to find out WHY our party systems (yes, both, but specifically the Republican) have devolved into little more than attacks against the opposing parties. He does focus on Trump and the declining Republican candidates, so if you're easily offended, this book isn't for you. However, if you're aiming for an intelligent take on what in the world has happened to our country over the past few presidents, check this book out.

This is a detailed factual book that analyses what has happened to politics in our party. He goes into how people think and feel about issues and how society has progressed through intentional manipulation of the system. We are at a breaking point now, as pointed out and cannot continue in the more extreme direction. Religion has shown us that people can be convinced to believe in unsubstantiated things, and facism has shown us how historical figures have also manipulated a population for their own power. Where are we headed?

The author obviously put a lot of time and effort into the research of the book. I did learn a lot from reading it. The writing is opinionated and strongly political. This could be a textbook for Political Science if it were written more objectively. It was an interesting read.

This book is dedicated to the preservation of democracy. The book proves our democracy is being destroyed by republicans and this autor a republican is very much concerned with the republicans behavior. The book factuallly shows that the republicans have a mental health problem causing chaos, disinformation, dishonesty, hatred and violence. The author shows the party has become a white supremacist nationalist and fascist group using propaganda to indoctrinate the republican base. The book is factual and educational. Also, the last chapter provides solutions for change and to improve the u.s. democracy. I give this a five star !!!!!!

The Republican threat to democracy is real! Dr. Brubaker examines the underlying and contributing factors. using definitions and detailed analysis to identify what is ailing the Republican Party. The book provides a prescription to cure this disease.

Reading this book provided me with better understanding of the GOP's anti democratic and social behavior. This should be assigned material for any Psychology or Pollical Science major.

I am really enjoying reading this book. This author put a lot of effort into this book. Thank you Dr. Brubaker for getting into reading again

I am really enjoying reading this book. This author put a lot of effort into this book. Thank you Dr. Brubaker for getting into reading again

Laughable and poorly supported thesis. I found this book little more than a litany of Democrat talking points which did nothing to convince me that Democrats have better ideas. While it suggests–correctly–that the old, pre-Trump Republican Party is a dying dinosaur, merely a club of elite Democrats in sheeps’ clothing, it only proves that the GOP is successfully transforming into the new champion of family-focused, hardworking Americans who cherish their God-given freedoms that the Democrat Party seems hellbent on destroying. This book not only fails in its aims but fails spectacularly. It has convinced me to switch parties–to join the NEW GOP and fight for the conservative cause. God bless America!

The book does a microscopic evaluation of the Republican Party while raising awareness amongst the readers on how to evaluate and understand not just the party under discussion but all political parties. If nothing else, the book has at least given me a new awareness of how to read political parties and their members and be more informed citizens, and be saved from political manipulation that all political parties are expert at.

Psychosocial Political Dysfunction of the Republican Party really takes a dive in details about the Republican party. I'm not into politics so I read this with an open mind and no expectations. Of the little I do know, I wanted to give it a chance and it's accurate in saying how the party has lost it's way over time since the time of Lincoln. The book covers everything in between and will definitely make you think and evaluate the state of politics. Plenty of points that could be argued with no matter what side you are on. I thought this book was very informative and I enjoyed it very much.
