This is how democracies die, not all at once, but with applause. Not through coups, but through permission. When enough people decide that domination feels better than democracy, the strongman doesn’t have to seize power. We hand it to him.

Trump didn’t invent the rot. He legitimized it. He took resentment that had been simmering for decades and turned it into a political identity. He told people their worst instincts weren’t shameful, they were patriotic. That cruelty was honesty. That power mattered more than truth.

heard his cruelty and felt seen. They heard his contempt for women, his racial grievance, his appetite for dominance, and said yes. Not despite it. Because of it.
