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.

This is not getting rid of FEMA.
This is getting rid of FEMA to replace it with a slush fund to steer to allies.
Want basic supplies while you wait for insurance? Hope the local Trumpists think well of you.

REPORTER: Any talk on having money instead of doing through FEMA, to go local groups?
TRUMP: Yeah. That's what I want to do. We want to bring it locally, so that a state takes care of its problem, and then they can bring it down to a local level like Samaritan's Purse and Franklin Graham
