Robert Reich explains Authoritarianism, Trump’s threat to Democracy

Published on Dec 21, 2016

FIRST: please visit Robert Reich at http://robertreich.org/ and follow him on Facebook. This is a small snippet of this man’s insight….. At his blog, and, on Facebook you can get more information and learn what you can do to resist/oppose the Trump agenda.

Regardless of who you voted for, you should hear this analysis! This is an excerpt from a recent Robert Reich podcast in which he explains how Donald Trump’s authoritarian approach to rule is at odds with American democracy, and the fundamental ideals upon which this country was founded. Reich views Trump’s behavior as something which is a menace to traditional American freedoms and democracy, itself – and I think he’s spot on.
