Great read as always. I think the politicians who rise to the highest levels are the most power hungry of all. So, essentially, most politicians are authoritarians given a chance. And it's hard to ascertain if one is AU. I think, USA's decision to limit the number of terms to 2 is the most practical and only solution to fight AU. We can't stop them from rising to power but can stop them from extending it forever.

I wonder why Bush didn't use the crisis to extend his power beyond the 2 terms.

Also, most Americans were immigrants decades ago, a point against Trump.
