Well, thats comforting to all of us. it isnt something we know how to deal with in our country. we never had one of our two political parties become an explicitly anti-democratic party enthralled to a twice-impeached demagogue. we dont even know how to measure how much danger our democracy is in because weve never seen it tested like this, certainly not in living memory. so one of the weird things about our current political moment is that some of the people who are turning out to be the most in...

Anti democratic party. in thrall to a twice impeached insurrection is demagogue, we dont even know how to measure how much danger our democracy is, in because weve never seen it tested like this, certainly not in living memory. so one of the weird things about our current political moment is that some of the people, who are turning out to be the most insightful about what we are going through now, are those who have studied the decline of democracy in other countries. the rise of authoritarians ...

Supported him accountable. john avlon with a reality check. >> reporter: our constitutional crisis is already here. thats the title of a powerful op-ed published in "the washington post" by robert kagan. in it, he points out that the founders did not foresee the trump phenomenon, they anticipated the threat of a demagogue, but not of a national cult of personality, nor did they foresee members of congress would refuse to check the power of the president from their own party. thats, of course, wh...

The piece is entitled "our constitutional crisis is already here". he writes the united states is heading into its greatest political and constitutional crisis since the civil war. with a reasonable chance over the next three to four years of incidents of mass violence, a breakdown of federal authority, and the division of the country into warring red and blue enclaves. the founders did not foresee the trump phenomenon. in part, because they did not foresee national parties. they anticipated the...
