Beschreibung

<p><i><b>"Gabriel Gatehouse is a brilliant spelunker of the rabbit holes of American political culture. A spellbinding storyteller and reader of the runes of the strange times we live in."</b> - Louis Theroux</i><br><br><b>Is this how democracy dies?</b><br><br><i>The Coming Storm </i>is Gabriel Gatehouse's brilliant exploration of how conspiracy theories are tearing America apart. It's a story that takes you down a rabbit hole - one that both the US as a nation and he as a journalist fell through - to unpack an epochal shift in political culture that starts in the earliest years of the Clinton administration and reached a crescendo on 6 January 2021 with the storming of the US Capitol. But that event wasn't the wild finale of a chaotic Trump presidency many hoped for - it was only the beginning.<br><br>A compelling mix of research and reportage, <i>The Coming Storm </i>gets under the skin of these conspiracy theories to show us a radical new kind of politics emerging, a movement that has coalesced around a loose alliance of tech bros, internet trolls and white supremacists. At a perilous moment in the history of American democracy, Gatehouse tells us some dark truths about our present, and provides clues about our future. <i>The Coming Storm </i>marks the debut of a major new voice in political journalism.</p>
