Very informative but somewhat chilling. Whenever I hear the word autocracy, I see Putin, Lukashenko, Erdogan, and Orban cheering Trump on. Please let’s resist our cancellation as US and world citizens.

Glad to hear some positive news along with all the depressing. Why isn't Congress doing its job to stop Trump and others as needed? "Out to lunch" doesn't do it in such abuse of our country's laws. Thank you.

This how I also see this administration: "...revenge is part of it in some of the cases, but in a lot of cases, it's also about power and it's about the culture war, the rights culture war." Perfect summation. That's why it's not enough to address/rebut just one of those 3 issues. They all have to be addressed. I think the most difficult needle to move is the culture war. I believe that is the issue that propelled enough citizens to vote in this administration. And that leads me to the conclusion that a progressive-left Democratic platform will NOT be the answer for any upcoming election. It has to be center, center, center.

What the heck? Buy yourself a fashion or celebrity magazine with photos of the type you like in the gender of your choice. To whom did you mean to address your comment? Tom or Jen? Even if you are as lovely to lay eyes on as you seemingly think you are, you seem not to have what it takes to be a good citizen.
