So I have to think that if an authoritarian politician doesn’t care about his approval numbers, what people think of him, does it make you wonder if that authoritarian politician plans to do something to stay in office when his term is up?

Isn’t it remarkable how a dynamic so obvious is blind to so many.

For timid kids, encouraging “proceed until apprehended” is healthy advice.

But America has taken that approach for 79 years with a psychopath and is now reaping the disastrous results.

Psychopathy only responds to consequences.

Worse is coming.

Pretty obvious. Avoiding the embarrassment of bringing unfortunate people to trial that the DOJ would lose.

SPECIAL: We got this conversation up as fast as possible because Tim Snyder's analysis of the Trump administration's agenda and methods is so important. Also: Why No Kings matters, and what’s at stake in Ukraine. This is, if I may say so, a must-watch.

Jordy created a website where visitors can contribute $35 to “provide an inflatable costume for a True American.™”

He initially hoped to collect enough to buy a couple dozen suits.

But as he put it -- “This whole thing has blown up a lot.”
