It should be abundantly obvious that the World's political map is being altered right in our faces. The Russian Dictator, the Chinese Dictator /party and more then a few other Dictators are lining up against democratic countries and they are slowly coalsing into a kind of anti-democratic bloc. Trumpf wants us to be part of this bloc because he fancies himself a Dictator and he has significant support from the GOP.and other elements in society. Democracy is under assault from the street to the WH. Dictatorship is the lazy thinkers idea of Gov't. Handing all the power to ONE person they believe solves the problem of choices. Democracy is hard it requires compromises these people don't want to make and would rather avoid. So, they choose a Dictator and an Authoritarian State instead.

Nicely said. I think you've got important elements to this mess. The authoritarians do not like compromise, do not like democracy, and they love hierarchy. Right now I'm sorry to say this but Trump's 'deft' handling of the economy is going to be his downfall. He's applying an arrogant dose of knows nothing to our economy.
