Turns out that if you put an authoritarian in power once, it's pretty difficulty to get rid of them -- and it gets exponentially more difficult the longer they stay. Imagine trying to ask DT to leave the presidency in 2024 after 8 years, had he won the 2020 election

I hate most things about our messed up way of doing elections, but Trump would have subverted a single central election authority. Having 50 separate ones is a strength.

Er I guess 51 separate ones.

Given how close the result was, did the 2020 election deliver a conclusive decision regarding autocracy? Without senate control and a continuing radicalization of the republican base what’s stopping a return to Trumpism in four / eight years?

This!! If in the next 4y Biden administration will not reduce internal division, it’s only a matter of time for a new Trump-like autocrat. It’s fine to be optimistic but the “war” is far from be over.

Trump is attempting to accomplish in the next two months his original mission: losing the cold war against the URSS The question is if the US government apparatus will finally show the balls it needs and remove Putin's top spy fast enough to avoid existential catastrophe.

I think that a democracy that can’t give back trusted (by everyone) and timely results to its voters is not robust. The fact that what we are seeing is possible is the proof. Very sad to watch. I hope this is cleared soon so the US can move on.
