The Next Victim of the Coronavirus? American Exceptionalism
Washington Post (2020)
  • Johann N. Neem
Abstract
The rise of Donald Trump, and the embarrassing failure of the American state to respond effectively to coronavirus, has proven to the world that the United States is no longer exceptional nor, in President Barack Obama’s word, indispensable. The inability of the American government to protect its citizens from a pandemic and provide global leadership vividly illustrates that American exceptionalism is dead.
