Donald Trump is rampaging since the GOP Senators gave him immunity from impeachment and other acts of censure.

"The Republican Party is betraying democracy, and these are historical times. Someone has got to push back."

The acquittal from impeachment may have created a trap for Donald Trump which will cause him to indulge in even more unsavory acts which even the most obsequious GOP lawmakers cannot tolerate if indeed there are any such GOP lawmkers with balls and backbone.

Time is running out and there is a possibility that Donald Trump will have shot so many holes in his feet by November that only the most doltish of his howling mob could vote for him.

• Americans are running out of time to stop President Donald Trump's authoritarian slide, experts warned.
• "There need to be mass protests," a Yale philosophy professor and expert on fascism told Insider. "The Republican Party is betraying democracy, and these are historical times. Someone has got to push back."
• Since he was acquitted in the GOP-controlled Senate earlier this month, the president has overseen a White House purge of impeachment witnesses, and the attorney general has intervened in the trial of a Trump associate.
• Republicans have mostly sat back, with at least one senator conceding that Trump's behavior did not seem to have changed because of impeachment.
• "There is absolutely no reason for him to stop pushing. It goes against both his personality and his experience," Cas Mudde, a political scientist at the University of Georgia, told Insider.

If Americans are concerned that President Donald Trump and Republicans are moving the US toward becoming a one-party, authoritarian state, they are running out of time to stop them, experts warned.

Trump has exhibited autocratic impulses since his 2016 campaign and from the moment he entered the White House.

The president has attacked virtually every democratic institution in the US when he's felt its actions were unfavorable to his agenda or public appearance. Meanwhile, he pushed traditional US allies away while openly embracing many of the world's most repressive leaders.

These trends have raised concern among top experts on authoritarianism, fascism, and democracy, but they've often said that the robust political system in the US, with its checks and balances and constitutional norms, has prevented Trump from becoming a full-blown authoritarian and doing whatever he wants.

“Mass Protests” for liberals is a dog whistle for violence.

From the Trump howling mob?

The only howling mob is the lefty groups like the anarchists ANTIFA. Idiot.

President Trump is a genius, he has communists, socialists, and statists complaining about “authoritarianism”.

Bankrupt genius. Morally bankrupt, spiritually bankrupt, ethically bankrupt, intellectually bankrupt, and 6 x financial bankruptcy.

The Republicans in the Senate didn't give Trump "immunity" at all from anything. They made the determination that the House Managers didn't prove their case against President Trump beyond a reasonable doubt.

I doubt there will be "mass protests" as the vast majority of Americans are working and making a bundle under President Trump.

• Americans are running out of time to stop President Donald Trump's authoritarian slide, experts warned.
• "There need to be mass protests," a Yale philosophy professor and expert on fascism told Insider. "The Republican Party is betraying democracy, and these are historical times. Someone has got to push back."
• Since he was acquitted in the GOP-controlled Senate earlier this month, the president has overseen a White House purge of impeachment witnesses, and the attorney general has intervened in the trial of a Trump associate.
• Republicans have mostly sat back, with at least one senator conceding that Trump's behavior did not seem to have changed because of impeachment.
• "There is absolutely no reason for him to stop pushing. It goes against both his personality and his experience," Cas Mudde, a political scientist at the University of Georgia, told Insider.

If Americans are concerned that President Donald Trump and Republicans are moving the US toward becoming a one-party, authoritarian state, they are running out of time to stop them, experts warned.

Trump has exhibited autocratic impulses since his 2016 campaign and from the moment he entered the White House.

The president has attacked virtually every democratic institution in the US when he's felt its actions were unfavorable to his agenda or public appearance. Meanwhile, he pushed traditional US allies away while openly embracing many of the world's most repressive leaders.

These trends have raised concern among top experts on authoritarianism, fascism, and democracy, but they've often said that the robust political system in the US, with its checks and balances and constitutional norms, has prevented Trump from becoming a full-blown authoritarian and doing whatever he wants.
