Ever since the nation's most important secret meeting - the Constitutional Convention - presidents have struggled to balance open, accountable government with necessary secrecy in military affairs and negotiations. For the first 120 years, a culture of open government persisted, but new threats and technology have long since shattered the old bargains. Today, presidents neither protect vital information nor provide the open debate Americans expect.

Constitutional fundamentalists read the Constitution selectively and self-servingly. Fundamentalist interpretations of the Constitution elevate certain constitutional rights above all others, benefit the most powerful members of society, and undermine the integrity of the document as a whole.

Was wird aus den Vereinigten Staaten? - Die Autorin des Nr.-1-Bestsellers "Zu viel und nie genug" stellt die Diagnose für ihr zerrüttetes Land... Das Trauma der USA, tief verwurzelt in der amerikanischen Geschichte, gärt seit Jahrzehnten unter der Oberfläche der einstigen Vorbild-Demokratie. Die korrupte und unmoralische Führung des Trump-Regimes war zugleich Symptom und Verstärker der nationalen Krise. Sie versetzte der Gesellschaft einen vernichtenden Stoß: Die Katastrophe der Corona-Pandemie traf auf ein zutiefst gespaltenes, geschwächtes Land.

America's failure to acknowledge this trauma, let alone root it out, has allowed it to metastasise. Whether it manifests itself in rising levels of rage and hatred, or hopelessness and apathy, the stress of living in a country many no longer recognize has affected everyone. America is suffering from PTSD - a new leader alone cannot fix it.
