Rep. Jamie Raskin Delivers Ominous Prediction For Donald Trump 2.0
Huff PostLOADING ERROR LOADING Rep. Jamie Raskin on Sunday warned that a second Donald Trump presidency would “look a lot like Vladimir Putin in Russia” and other conservative and authoritarian world leaders. “It would look a lot like Viktor Orbán in Hungary ― ‘illiberal democracy,’ meaning democracy without rights or liberties or respect for the due process, the system, the rule of law,” the Democratic congressman told MSNBC’s Jen Psaki. They embrace political violence as an instrument for obtaining power and then everything flows from the will of a charismatic politician, and that is Donald Trump in their book.” Raskin warned “we are clearly headed into a completely different form of government than any of us would recognize as continuous with the past. Right-wing authoritarian government in league with Putin, Xi, Orbán, Bolsonaro, you name it.” Psaki noted how Putin, Xi and Orbán are “some serious authoritarian dictators” and asked if they could be looked at as an example of where America could be headed.
