In order to do that, we must resist President Trump's dangerous tilt
toward authoritarianism. Throughout his candidacy and now within the
walls of the White House, President Trump has viciously and repeatedly
attacked the media. He has inflamed people's anger toward immigrants,
toward religious minorities, toward refugees, and he has undermined or
attacked individuals who publicly stand up to him and the shortcomings
of his policies. These are four strategies used by authoritarian
leaders from time immemorial to consolidate power. These are strategies
that are incompatible with our constitutional ``we the people''
construction of government, and we must call out and resist these
strategies.
