About This Book
Gilded Rage (2025) exposes how tech billionaires like Elon Musk and Peter Thiel became radicalized members of the MAGA movement and, more importantly, why. It unravels the strategic machinations of Big Tech’s support for Trump and lays bare just how much both parties stand to gain from what was, to start with, the unlikeliest of alliances.
