According to Chapter 5 of this report by the V-Dem Institute. We the people feel this everyday and know it in our bones. Here are the facts to support it.
"Under Trump’s presidency, the level of democracy in the USA has fallen back to the same level as in 1965. Yet the situation is fundamentally different than during the Civil Rights era. In 2025, the derailment of democracy is marked by executive overreach undermining the rule of law, along with far-reaching suppression and intimidation of media and dissenting voices. The speed with which American democracy is currently dismantled is unprecedented in modern history. Legislative Constraints – the worst affected aspect of democracy – is losing one-third of its value in 2025 and reaching its lowest point in over 100 years. Civil Rights and Equality before the Law are also rapidly declining, falling to late 1960s levels. Freedom of Expression is now at its lowest level since the end of WWII."
