Summary
If freedom is precious, our Republic is precious. In "A Loose Grip," Dr. Howard Asher warns us that we can lose both our Republic and our freedom if we don't understand the founding principles of this nation and apply the wisdom necessary to preserve our Republic's promise of liberty. In his insightful, thought-provoking, and instructive book, Dr. Asher connects the dots of what our unique and extraordinary Republic is all about, who we are as individuals, and who we are as a nation of people. Dr. Asher has written "A Loose Grip" in a personal, timely, relatable way. He points out that every era has a groundswell of challenges defined and appropriated by what he calls "pop/political culture." Dr. Asher shows why and how the current "pop/political culture" created our present era, the "Era of Trump." Dr. Asher presents a conversational interview with President Trump that didn't happen, but it could have. This fascinating exercise delineates President Trump's perspective and point-of-view on pertinent and controversial issues. In addition, Dr. Asher provides the reader with two definitive mental status assessments from respective public profiles, The media and Trump. Dr. Asher concludes with seven imperative actions that need to be taken to "strengthen our grip" on our Republic. He points out that as citizens of America, we have an obligation to understand, be wise, and act sensibly about priorities, practicalities, and that, which is relevant to our lives and the life of our country, or we will lose not just our Republic, we will lose the blessings of freedom. Dr. Asher has written "A Loose Grip" to remind us that America is a republic, "if WE can keep it!"
