The Conspiracy to End America: Five Ways My Old Party Is Driving Our Democracy to Autocracy

By Stuart Stevens

Book Overview

Lincoln Project adviser and bestselling author of It Was All a Lie, Stuart Stevens offers an ominous warning that the GOP is dragging our country toward autocracy--and if we don't wake up to the crisis in our system, 2024 may well have been our last free and fair election.

Today's Republican party is not a "normal" political party in the American tradition. It has become an autocratic movement masquerading as a political party. As Stuart Stevens argues in The Conspiracy to End America, if we look away from that truth, we greatly increase the likelihood that the America we love will slip away, never to return.

Whenever a democracy slides into autocracy, there are five critical elements at work: financers, propagandists, party support, legal theories to legitimize, and shock troops. The Conspiracy to End America examines each of these driving forces on the Right and makes clear how they are working in concert to end our democracy as we know it.

In the tradition of It Can't Happen Here and On Tyranny, The Conspiracy to End America is a blinking red distress call about the dark intentions lurking within Stevens' old party and a rallying cry to beat back this perilous threat and save the Republic.

Republican campaign strategist speaks the truth!

This is an easy read, but devastating in its clarity about the danger to democracy from Trump and the far right which now controls the Republican party. A former Republican campaign strategist, he is an excellent writer with facts and fact-based opinions.
