“People have become hysterical, and this hysteria clouds their judgment even as it fills their wallets. Politics today can sound like a thriller novel in which institutions collapse spectacularly on page one to set the story in motion. Every headline not supporting your own beliefs becomes evidence ‘democracy is dying.’ It is a helluva lead-in to the midterms. So are they right? Is it 1930s Germany out there? No.” (11/02/26)
