Every single authoritarian tool Trump has used is one that existed prior to his first term. We can’t establish a system in which all the incentives point in an authoritarian direction, and have few restraints and no consequences for abuse, then be shocked when we end up here. trib.al/Pm85v10

Immigration policy or bribery? Trump wants to PAY immigrants $1,000 to leave. This ain’t policy — it’s a payoff. And guess what? Our taxpayer dollars are funding it.
