Given the current US administration’s predilection against immigrants it wouldn’t surprise me if at some point the sycophancy becomes endemic in academia as well, resulting in a modern equivalent of “Deutsche Physik”.

The trickle of academics seeking safe haven outside of the US will increase, an ironic reversal of half a century’s policy to attract the best and brightest (especially prominent before WWII when the US and UK were actively helping German scientists escape).
