Tyranny Expert Exposes Donald Trump ‘Trick’ That Can Be Toppled ‘With My Little Finger’
Timothy Snyder said the former president’s recent rhetoric is all about one thing.
Yale history professor Timothy Snyder, who is an expert on authoritarianism, this weekend argued that all of former President Donald Trump’s recent “fascist display,” “dark language” and “attempts of intimidation” is aimed at just one thing, making people afraid.
“Once you see through that trick, once you recognize that that’s all they have got, then you see, ‘OK, Trump is a bully I can knock over with my little finger, or just a bully I can knock over with the hand I use to cast my vote,’” Snyder, the author of “On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century,” told MSNBC’s Ali Velshi.
