A political cartoon shows Donald Trump at a lectern with the presidential seal, speaking into a microphone. His long red tie hangs low as he gestures broadly. Standing beside him is Viktor Orbán, shorter and looking up with a faint smile, holding a shoe box labeled “FLORSHEIM SIZE 14.” Trump says, “Victor was a great leader—cheated in a rigged election. So we’re bringing him here to be my new Secretary of Illiberal Democracy.”

We never desert our allies.

Declining American Democracy: Trump is a Symptom, Not the Cause The modern GOP is inherently authoritarian

“They now rate the #UnitedStates as an ‘ #illiberaldemocracy’. That means that the ruling party can still lose #elections, so we aren’t a full #autocracy just yet. However, that democracy is on the ropes …” open.substack.com/pub/paulkrug... #PaulKrugman

Keep a close watch on the value of $Trump and $Melania in the coming months as companies and countries pay bribes to lower tariff rates on their goods of interest. It was never about strengthening domestic manufacturing, it was always about power. #oligarchy #illiberaldemocracy #trumpcoin

I find the use of the term #illiberal and #illiberaldemocracy concealing and obscuring, since we can not speak of democracy when countries don't guarantee their citizens rule-based liberty or freedom. #Russia for instance, has never been a democracy. Why not just call it authoritarian dictatorship?

AI’s Alarming Trend Toward Illiberalism Left ungoverned, the technology opens pathways to undermine democracy.

#IlliberalDemocracy = a governing system that hides nondemocratic practices behind formally democratic institutions & procedures.

While liberal democracies protect individual rights&freedoms, illiberal democracies do not.

Does it ring a bell, #TargetedIndividuals?

§ Barb McQuade @barbmc... - 4h From interview of Lee Bollinger, 1st Amendment scholar who served as dean of @UMichLaw, president of @UMich, and president of Columbia University. www.chronicle.com/article/were... Bollinger: We're in the midst of an authoritarian takeover of the U.S. government. It's been coming and coming, and not everybody is prepared to read it that way. The characters regarded as people to emulate, like Orban and Putin and so on, all indicate that the strategy is to create an illiberal democracy or an authoritarian democracy or a strongman democracy. That’s what we're experiencing. Our problem in part is a failure of imagination. We cannot get ourselves to see how this is going to unfold in its most frightening versions. You neutralize the branches of government; you neutralize the media; you neutralize universities, and you're on your way. We're beginning to see the effects on universities. It’s very, very frightening.
