    The press has already walked back at the threat of Trump, so the autocracy has already begun. It’s happening, pre election.

      “Walked back at the threat of trump”, can you explain what you mean by this a little more? Sorry I’m just not sure what it means.

        He’s probably talking about the media capitalulating to the Trump campaign by agreeing not to fact check during the Vance/Walz debate. And most recently, the WSJ blocking the Harris endorsement. I.e. a lot of the very rich and powerful people seem to be acting like an authoritarian Trump administration is inevitable, and they’re trying to avoid his wrath or position themselves to be favored oligarchs.
