Story4.5 out of 5 stars 340
Donald Trump isn't a despot. But he is increasingly acting like the "despot's apprentice", an understudy in authoritarian tactics that threaten to erode American democracy, including attacking the press, threatening rule of law by firing those who investigate his alleged wrongdoings, using nepotism to staff the White House, and countless other techniques. Donald Trump is borrowing tactics from the world's dictators and despots.

I love Brian Klaas’s podcast, Power Corrupts, and this book is similar in content, although focused more on the former POTUS. I missed his voice from the audiobook, but so glad I could listen for free! Def recommend!
