This is not to say that I think that Trump will actually abolish voting & install a dictatorship, only that his movement is infused with explicitly antidemocratic & authoritarian ideas. My guess is rather that Trump will take the U.S. in the direction of Hungary & Turkey.

I wrote my first Substack piece! In it, I ask if Turkey isn’t a better comparison to a second Trump administration than Nazi Germany. What can the US learn from an already autocratized Turkey? That the Washington Post is a precursor of what may come.
