More about the book
The book explores the takeover of American politics by a fringe group of economic opportunists who have manipulated both the Republican Party and the broader political landscape. Through sharp wit, Jonathan Chait examines how these individuals implemented radical policies lacking any scholarly or popular backing, effectively reshaping the political agenda across party lines. The narrative highlights the alarming shift in policy influence and the erosion of traditional political norms over the past thirty years.
