U.S. democracy score dropped to +5 since 2017 due to erosion of norms, raising autocracy concerns.
The U.S. has declined from a democracy score of +10 to +5 since 2017, marking a shift to an anocracy—hybrid regime with autocratic traits—due to actions including purging officials, refusing tax disclosures, pardoning allies, obstructing oversight, and attempting to overturn the 2020 election.
Experts warn that autocracy often emerges gradually through erosion of norms, such as executive overreach, politicizing justice, and using federal forces without justification, rather than sudden coups.
The concern is that small, cumulative actions may undermine accountability and rule of law, with the country now at a critical juncture where democratic resilience is at risk.
