I was raised on the 1950s American myth. I came of age in the 1960s American metamorphosis. Now I'm living in the 21st century American madness. This is the fourth in a series of books about the Trump phenomenon and the rise of a power-mad, right wing theocracy in America. The very thing our democracy was supposed to be a bulwark against. Whether it's a flaw in our character or just another chapter in the eternal struggle between our better angels and our demons, it turns out that fascism can happen here. Whether it does remains to be seen, but the fact that we are having this conversation is indicative of the severity of the problem. With Trump, we found the worst person in the country and gave him the most important job on the planet. But no one had to vote for him. Ultimately, the problem isn't Trump. it's us.
