by Ben Shapiro
First published 2021
Ben Shapiro argues that 2020 revealed America's deepest problems rather than creating new ones. The pandemic became a tool for government overreach through lockdowns that served as power grabs. The George Floyd protests gave Democrats ammunition to weaponize racism accusations for political control. Biden's victory energized woke culture, but millions of Trump supporters demonstrated that Americans still resist identity politics. Shapiro presents his syndicated columns from that turbulent year as a rational voice cutting through the chaos. He contends that crises amplify existing flaws instead of generating fresh challenges. The book targets devoted Shapiro readers and anyone seeking clarity about America's direction during a year of unprecedented turmoil.
