Philip Roth’s The Plot Against America — thoughts now?

Was posted over at r/professors but got zero interaction

The New Yorker published this cartoon on Jan 20th, but I haven’t seen a whole lot of other discussion of parallels between the book — not just the actions but some of the thoughts/feelings of the central characters — and current events here in the U.S.

We turn to the humanities to make sense of the senseless… I’d love to hear from English lit profs, historians, and other folks who’ve engaged with this book. What are your thoughts? And are you reading this book differently now?
