"Tracking Trump's Path to Autocracy: A Dictator's Playbook"

A threat tracker details former President Donald Trump's plans and promises that pose a significant risk to American democracy, including his aspirations for a "day one dictatorship" with proposed actions such as immigration roundups, energy extraction, and the use of military force against civilian protestors. Trump's allies are reportedly discussing building an administration around loyalists who would "stretch legal and governance boundaries," while his former advisors warn of irreparable damage to the country in a second term. The tracker also outlines Trump's proposed immigration policies, ideological purity tests for immigrant applicants, and plans to prosecute charities and nonprofits supporting immigration and asylum.
