Democracy Americana A newsletter on U.S. politics and history - and the ongoing struggle over how much democracy, and for whom, there should be in America

My readership now shrinks with every piece I publish. You don’t need to know much about the newsletter business to see how that math doesn’t work. Not sure yet how to handle this.

For now, I’ll just ask you to consider supporting Democracy Americana in whichever way you see fit:

"It’s grimly refreshing to get the truth, to have a president who doesn’t have an interest in covering up the crimes of US imperialism. Trump lies constantly, but he’s now repeatedly made clear that he doesn’t care about masking the true nature of his interests, and the interests of his backers."

Into the Twilight of the Trump Era What becomes of MAGA as Trump’s hold over the movement is weakening, his ability to integrate its different factions waning? A deep dive into the state of the fever swamp

ICYMI: I wrote something about the MAGA mess.

Trump is indeed in trouble as his hold over the Right is weakening, MAGA is showing signs of disintegration. But unfortunately, an opening for moderation this is not - all the energy on the Right is with the extremists.
