The author behind the “eye-popping” (CNN) #1 New York Times bestseller A Warning presents an urgent look at how our deeply divided nation is setting the stage for “The Next Trump.”
After a chaotic and violent first Trump presidency, Miles Taylor knew one thing for sure: Trump would be president again, whether he was on the ballot or not. Taylor knew intimately that Trumpism was overtaking the Republican Party and was bound to mount a vigorous comeback. Now, following the 2024 presidential election, his prophecy has come true.
With Blowback, the formerly “Anonymous” official is back with bombshell revelations and a sobering national forecast. Through interviews with dozens of ex-Trump aides and government leaders, Taylor predicted what could happen inside “Trump 2.0.” What sounds like a political thriller—from questionable presidential powers and CIA betrayals to angry henchmen and assassination plots—is instead America’s political reality, as Taylor uses untold stories to shed light on the ex-President’s unfulfilled plans, the dark forces haunting our lives, and how we can thwart the rise of extremism in the United States.
Blowback is also a surprisingly emotional and self-critical portrait of a dissenter, whose own unmasking provides a vivid warning about what happens when we hide the truth from others and, most importantly, ourselves.

An excellent book! Mote scary than any of Stephen King’s many books. I feared that blowback would be exactly the "blowback" it turned out to be! The book describes hypothetical events that’d happen if Trump, or a "new Trump" was re-elected, & as I write this on 22-2-2025, it has gone almost exactly one month after Trump was inaugurated as President of the United States, and I can only conclude that the author's experiences regarding hypothetical scenarios that could happen, have already happened domestically, as well as with the United States' international relations! It’s shocking to see how much damage has already been done after only one month since Trump was inaugurated as President, in this short time the geopolitical situation has gone from feeling almost ready to explode to the fact that we can almost feel certain that a new world war can break out any day now! Many democracies around the world are on their knees, NATO may cease to exist completely! Alliances that have lasted for over 70 years are being abandoned, in favor of forming new ones with countries that most of us feel a strong aversion to, which of course does not affect a President like Trump! The fears I had before I read the book have not diminished! But I feel utterly gratefull that the author Miles Taylor wrote this book and I cannot recommend it enough! Regards, Grace
