@missy that NYT article states "Europe has a major problem", and that problem is moving towards autocracy.
I laughed coldly because autocracy is a problem around the world. What do you think Trump's legacy is if not a move toward autocracy?
Africa, Latin America, China, Russia, and the Middle East... What small part of the world does not have this problem? China has gotten more autocratic under Xi, and Russia has gotten more autocratic under Putin.
The NYT article author's focus seems narrow.
I don’t disagree. And I am no fan of Trump. I find this entire issue troubling.
