All my life I have studied democratization and autocratization. My 1st field trip was to newly democratic Argentina. I then added autocracies to my portfolio: Cuba, Ven, etc. I think I can recognize the stages of transition to authoritarianism. Here are the boxes Trump has already checked off.

I know people like comparing Trump to Putin, but this chaotic rule by decree while state capacity declines and the opposition increasingly views him as unfit to govern is much more reminiscent of Yeltsin's first term.

Breaking News: President Trump announced a barrage of tariffs and sanctions targeting Colombia after it refused to accept military deportation flights.

The US just slapped a 25% tariff on Colombia for refusing to receive deportees on military planes. This is just the start.
