The fact that Trump is trying to shut down every organization that speaks truth to his malevolent power speaks volumes. He's a corrupt, profoundly incompetent criminal who will continue to drain the US of its very heart and soul.

The Forgotten Dystopian Vision That Explains Trump’s Canada Obsession

Crockett: "I understand when people say they are concerned about our debt, as they should be. But if you really want to look at the problem, it's probably with the Trump administration. We know that that administration, the last time they were in, ran our debt up an additional $8 trillion."

Donald Trump Is a Weakling. That’s the Problem.
Yes, he’s authoritarian. But the specific danger he poses is the chaos caused by his lack of discipline, not a triumph of the will.
