Host Reed Galen is joined by Ruth Ben-Ghiat, Author and Professor of History and Italian Studies at New York University. They discuss how the entire GOP has become an autocratic entity (not just the MAGA extremists), why Trump’s propaganda has turned into policy, and how Donald Trump’s victimhood complex is just another play from the standard authoritarian playbook. Plus, what’s the fallout from the original sin of not prosecuting Donald Trump? If you’d like to connect with The Lincoln Project, send an email to [email protected].
