All 4 (now present) in Trump Presidency:

Tyranny-
1. Open hostility to verifiable reality and #FreePress
(Use of words “Hoax” or “Fake.”

2. Shamanistic incarnation- phrases used such as “lock her up” “build that wall.” And now....”Angry mob.” “Mob Rule.” Dazed by chants
3. Magical thinking (Mexico pays for wall/Drain the swamp. Facts are not necessary-just need a chant.)

4. Misplaced faith: (like Trump is “strong” and “protective” or the only one who can deliver positive economy.) @TimothyDSnyder
“Fake news” is used by an authoritarian who is trying to govern from place of uncertainty.
Lügenjournalisten = “lying journalist”

Trump compares Mueller “gang” to Joseph McCarthy. Not only is weaponizing “McCarthyism” a well-worn Russian propaganda trope. But Trump is literally a protege of Roy Cohn, McCarthy & mobster lawyer.

Irony’s not dead; Trump just assumes enough Americans are ignorant & gullible.
Trump digs deeper into Putin's playbook. McCarthyism is a Russian propaganda trope used to deflect/mask Kremlin bad acts. Russian media used it against Hillary & Democrats for even suggesting Russia was involved in election hacks. I wrote about it in 2016. stopfake.org/en/russian-pro…
I wrote about Trump using Putin's propaganda playbook to disarm & manipulate Americans in 2016. Disinformation, conspiracy theories, gaslighting, whataboutism, fake news. All well-worn Kremlin tactics—Now coming from the WH, full of Putin puppets & stooges euromaidanpress.com/2016/10/27/989…
