Lee Moran at HuffPost:

Authoritarianism expert Ruth Ben-Ghiat spoke on MSNBC’s “The Weekend” about one particular appeal that President-elect Donald Trump had for some voters that resulted in his decisive 2024 election victory ― and how the “illusion of competency” is “one of the biggest scams of all” of authoritarian leaders. Many people “would like to be relieved of the burden of choice” when it comes to voting in elections, and that is what Trump promised during the campaign to evangelical Christians, Ben-Ghiat noted. “They are not afraid of being relieved of that burden of choice and letting somebody else make the decisions,” she explained. “And so, in fact, often authoritarian personalities who are like the big boss at home or in the workplace, the bullies, they are the ones who are glad in the political ground to give up their agency and voice to somebody else.” Trump promised voters that “I alone can fix it,” Ben-Ghiat recalled.

Appearing on MSNBC's The Weekend this past Saturday, Ruth Ben-Ghiat highlighted that the "illusion of competency" is one of the "biggest scams of all" and that a sizable chunk of voters "would like to be relieved of the burden of choice."

From the 11.09.2024 edition of MSNBC's The Weekend:

« Donald Trump is going to -- if he starts losing -- he's going to take everyone down with him. I mean psychologically that's what he's going to do. He's not going to want to -- he's never going to support somebody who beats him.

So, it's sort of a difficult situation for the Republicans. They have this man who needs to win at all costs basically to stay out of prison, and at the same time he's such a personality. He's a narcissistic sociopath, and he -- he is not going to let anyone else win without trying to destroy them. »

— Conservative anti-MAGA contributor to The Atlantic George Conway on CNN in conversation with Jim Acosta and David Gergen.

Trump has a Götterdämmerung aspect about him. If he can't win then he's going to take everything and everybody down with him.

Trump almost certainly won't lose the Iowa caucuses. But if his totals are below expectations, he will lash out at everybody imaginable.

Yeah but he has that magic (R) next to his name, so he is above the law.

Abby Zimet: Taking On Bigots, Yahoos and Perpetrators Of All Kinds

Talk about flipping the script. Within days, in an historic act of grace, old Joe did the “right and honorable thing” and handed the reins to Kamala, “in every possible way (the) anti-Trump,” who ran with them. In their glorious wake, they left a blindsided, ill-equipped GOP sputtering about coups and conspiracies, a MAGA base whose hateful idiocy was thrown into sharp ugly relief, and a…
