S5 Ep15: Nothing is True, Everything is Possible (with Anne Applebaum)

from The Focus Group Podcast · host The Bulwark

Donald Trump's first 100 days in office have been marked by a lot of aspiring autocratic behavior...like deporting a legal resident without due process, targeting his political enemies, to walking right up to the line of ignoring the Supreme Court. Unfortunately, it's not a given that voters will care...or even clock that what they're seeing is bad. Atlantic staff writer Anne Applebaum joins Sarah to discuss how voters are seeing Trump, and how he's comparing to autocratic regimes around the world.show notesAnne on SubstackBy Anne Applebaum:Twilight of Democracy: The Seductive Lure of AuthoritarianismAutocracy, Inc.: The Dictators Who Want to Run the WorldAmerica’s Future Is Hungary
