“The sense of dread from some corners of the Trump-supporting world as he carries out what he said he’d carry out — and with predictably dire results — is the sorry consequence of smart people talking themselves into drawing the wrong conclusion from the fact that America mostly survived Trump’s first term. Most politicians don’t follow through on their campaign promises, but Trump very much is. That’s a problem for America, and for the world, because what he promised during his campaign was to remove constitutional limits, rule as an autocrat, break the economy, and upend the global order. Now, lots of people who supported him in the election are freaking out.” (03/06/25)
