'There need to be mass protests': Authoritarianism experts say time is running out for Americans to stop Trump





  • Americans are running out of time to stop President Donald Trump's authoritarian slide, experts warned.
  • "There need to be mass protests," a Yale philosophy professor and expert on fascism told Insider. "The Republican Party is betraying democracy, and these are historical times. Someone has got to push back."
  • Since he was acquitted in the GOP-controlled Senate earlier this month, the president has overseen a White House purge of impeachment witnesses, and the attorney general has intervened in the trial of a Trump associate.
  • Republicans have mostly sat back, with at least one senator conceding that Trump's behavior did not seem to have changed because of impeachment.
  • "There is absolutely no reason for him to stop pushing. It goes against both his personality and his experience," Cas Mudde, a political scientist at the University of Georgia, told Insider.
If Americans are concerned that President Donald Trump and Republicans are moving the US toward becoming a one-party, authoritarian state, they are running out of time to stop them, experts warned.
Trump has exhibited autocratic impulses since his 2016 campaign and from the moment he entered the White House.
The president has attacked virtually every democratic institution in the US when he's felt its actions were unfavorable to his agenda or public appearance. Meanwhile, he pushed traditional US allies away while openly embracing many of the world's most repressive leaders.

'There need to be mass protests': Authoritarianism experts say time is running out for Americans to stop Trump





  • Americans are running out of time to stop President Donald Trump's authoritarian slide, experts warned.
  • "There need to be mass protests,"
  • Protests (few as they are) based on logic are acceptable, protests based on emotions are NOT!
