In the early 21st Century, America began to suffer from collective mental illness. A comically unqualified game show host was elevated to the presidency. A bankrupt billionaire, an ignorant genius, a compulsive liar whose every utterance was truth, the people cheered him when he told them that self-destruction was liberty, that risking mortal contagion was a sign of health, that having destroyed their democracy he had made them great again. If clarity ever arrived, it would be too late, and forward they proudly marched.
