it has been clear for months
I gave a campus talk last night on Trump's first 100 days for the WUD Society & Politics group. A student asked me if I thought that, at some point, we might start to describe the US as a competitive authoritarian regime. I said that we were already there, it's just that most folks haven't noticed:

1/ Russian tank operators say that they are running short of explosive reactive armour due to losses running much higher than the relatively low rate of replenishment. Documentation published by a Russian foundation states that 100,000 ERA bricks are being produced annually. ⬇️
