Quote for the Day:
After losing the 2020 election, Trump followed the predictable pattern of any aspiring autocrat: contest the results in the press, then in court, and then, should the court proceedings fail, with violence. But one needed no specialized insight into the history of autocracy to anticipate the coup: Trump’s accomplices promoted their plan on the internet and recruited participants in public. The radicalization played out in real time, on view for all to see.
