The American descent into madnessAmerica went from the freest country in the world in December 2019 to a repressive and frightening place by July 2021. How?
Nations have often gone mad in a matter of months. The French abandoned their supposedly idealistic revolutionary project and turned it into a monstrous hell for a year between July 1793 and 1794.
