Robert Reich: Donald Trump Is Already Behaving Like a Tyrant

Robert Reich: Donald Trump Is Already Behaving Like a Tyrant
Our democracy and our civil liberties could be in grave jeopardy.
By Robert Reich / Robert Reich's Blog
December 9, 2016

Trump doesn’t take kindly to anyone criticizing him – not journalists (whom he refers to as “dishonest,” “disgusting” and “scum” when they take him on), not corporate executives, not entertainers who satirize him, not local labor leaders, no one.

The President-elect’s tendency to go after people who criticize him by sending false and provocative statements to his 16 million twitter followers not only imperils those people and their organizations.

It also poses a clear and present danger to our democracy.

If you had a story he didn't like LBJ would call you and bitch you out. Nixon called the IRS.
