Trump's Troubling Admiration of Tyrants & What It Could Mean in a 2nd Term

from The Warning with Steve Schmidt · host iHeartPodcasts

Steve Schmidt talks about the new reporting that Trump would praise the actions of Hitler. This is not the first time the former President has expressed affinity for tyrants and dictators. But what could that mean if he was elected to a second term in office? Steve says that we've already seen what happened when he lost an election and argues that the second term will be worse. "Tyrants rise when democracies weaken. in the 1930s, Fascism rose, not because it was strong, but because democracy was weak. And now, something is rising all over the world. The United States got a taste of it between 2016 and 2020. Next time, we'll get the full experience."***To become a The Warning Premium Member and listen to the show 48 hours early with access to premium content visit: https://thewarning.supercast.com/Subscribe for more and follow me here:Substack: https://steveschmidt.substack.com/subscribeTwitter: https://twitter.com/SteveSchmidtSESFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/SteveSchmidtSES/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thewarningsesInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thewarningses/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
