It's not just Trump is old but America and the other western nations are much older societies than the classic fascist states of the early 20th century. People are living longer, having fewer kids, so population skews much older. Makes for a different kind of authoritarianism.

But is it actually defanged, or just appear that way? Trumps awful, lazy approach and worked many many times before.

I get the sense that the civil service people are just going to start working with Biden's transition team as their real bosses, and not bothering to talk to the Trump political appointees.
