Description

With the Soviet Union extinct, Saddam Hussein defeated and US power at its zenith, the early 1990s promised a ‘kinder, gentler America’. It didn’t work out that way. Instead, it was a period of punishing economic hardship, rising anger and domestic strife, setting the tone for the polarization and resurgent extremism we know today.

In this original and often hilarious book, John Ganz narrates the fall of the Reagan order and the rise of a new kind of paranoid politics – how a group of con men, conspiracists and racists declared a culture war on liberal elites, rejected ‘globalism’ and called for a ‘populist-based presidency’ – that birthed Donald Trump’s America.

A rollicking exposé of the end of the post–World War II order – this book shows the advent of a new, more berserk America
