The United States have a radical democracy. Will Trump voters destroy it? - Robert Kagan The Washington Post

Opinion

We have a radical democracy. Will Trump voters destroy it?

By Robert Kagan

Editor at large

The Washington Post, April 24, 2024


For some time, it was possible to believe that many voters could not see the threat Donald Trump poses to America’s liberal democracy, and many still profess not to see it. But now, a little more than six months from Election Day, it’s hard to believe they don’t. The warning signs are clear enough. Trump himself offers a new reason for concern almost every day. People may choose to ignore the warnings or persuade themselves not to worry, but they can see what we all see, and that should be enough.
