Fred Trump taught his son that the world is divided into killers and prey. Roy Cohn taught him that appearance matters more than reality. Trump’s business career taught him that you can fail repeatedly and still claim victory. Putin taught him that lies and the corruption of business elites can work. And now, as president again, Trump is teaching the rest of the world’s autocrats and wannabe dictators a deadly lesson: America is no longer democracy’s defender. Instead, we’ve become autocracy’s enabler.
This isn’t just politics. It’s a war for democracy’s soul. And we’re all on the front lines.
