It's critical to understand that power in a system like this is wielded subtly, not openly. People still vote, elections still matter. But the system is so rigged it can't fairly be called "democratic." I saw what this looks like firsthand in Hungary. https://t.co/lL8fL8Gj6u https://t.co/ZNQkKdeyaG — PolitiTweet.org

The current set up of the US Constitution makes us vulnerable to this kind of authoritarianism. The GOP is pushing on those vulnerabilities, exacerbating them to the point where the democratic system could crack https://t.co/lL8fL8Gj6u https://t.co/Cx8wuYKHu3 — PolitiTweet.org

The specific nature of a competitive authoritarian regime in the US would look different in some ways: elections rigged locally, media not taken over but marginalized. But some features would be similar: compliant court, threats to dissenting business. https://t.co/lL8fL8Gj6u — PolitiTweet.org
