Smart analysts are likening T’s actions to what Orban has done in Hungary in the same order. Orban went after the media, then the judiciary, then universities, etc. It took Orban ten years to turn Hungary into an autocracy. Trump is moving at breakneck speed.
True enough, but the democratic tradition in Hungary was far newer and far more fragile than ours. We've a long history where democracy has been regularly challenged and ultimately prevailed. btw, love to meet smart analysts you encounter. they seem to be in short supply.
A positive positive spin on where it is going. The speed of the necessary events is diffciult to judge but could be a surprise.. I was astonished to sidcover in doing some basic poking into the Harvard letter to discvover it was a hastily done slap-together of multiple drafts.....an early indication of sloppy workmanship as well as intellectual slipppiness. We've seen that this is an across the board problem with this team of intellectual midgets abd boorish giants
