  1. Violence gives Trump exactly what he wants: pretext. A blank check for repression, surveillance and total control. It does not threaten his power. It authorizes it. Do not take the bait! #StateViolence #ManufacturedConsent #AuthoritarianPlaybook #ReichstagFire #PassiveResistance

  2. How can Trump’s team argue a POTUS is immune from prosecution—but threaten to prosecute Obama or Biden for “official acts”?
    You can’t have “presidential immunity” and “Democratic treason.”
    Unless, of course, it’s not about law. It’s about power.

  6. If you thought Trump’s first term was bad, buckle up. His ‘revenge tour’ is just beginning—and democracy is the main target. #AuthoritarianPlaybook dw.com/en/donald-trump-chaos-s

  7. Trump’s pledges should be taken both seriously and literally.

    He has, for the most part, sought to do the extreme things that were dismissed as mere rhetoric when first promised, from enacting a “Muslim ban” to refusing to accept the results of an election.
    And yet, here we are again, with Trump making even more extreme promises to “terminate” the Constitution, seek “retribution” against political opponents, and be a “dictator” (just on day one), only to see people unsure what to make of or how to respond to these threats.

    This report aims to alter these dynamics by clearly showing how Trump would follow through on his most extreme anti-democratic pledges for a second term and then offering expert recommendations for how to mitigate that danger. 
    The bulk of the report looks specifically at three things: Promises, Powers, and Plans. 
    • It collects a set of promises Donald Trump has made, in his own words, for what he would do in a second term. It places them in their proper context, coming amidst a resurgence of similar authoritarians worldwide that Trump has openly admired and modeled himself after.
    • It examines the powers of the presidency and how they could be used to implement those promises. It explains the legal mechanisms that will be applied to turn Trump’s campaign promises into government policy and programs. And, it assesses the previously available guardrails that could constrain or prevent these abuses of power and the extent to which they will still hold.
    • It explores the plans Trump and his allies have drafted to circumvent or override the checks in our system that otherwise have or could restrain his most extreme intentions. Based on expert input, it describes how these policies will play out in practice and negatively impact American life upon implementation.

  8. Trump and DeSantis are doing their damnedest to out-facsist one another. While doing so, they’re destroying our democracy.

    Among other exceedingly unsavory things, “MAGA” stands for Making American Government Authoritarian.
