Olympia World Affairs Council special speaker event: “The Authoritarian Playbook: Abroad and at Home “ with Steve Niva, Evergreen State College Professor

A growing number of elected leaders around the world are transforming their democratic and constitutional systems into more authoritarian regimes. Professor Niva discusses how this is taking shape in the US and shows how President Donald Trump is following a similar playbook, which is taking aim at the constitutional republic in favor of an executive autocracy.
