Description
How easily could a re-elected President Trump bend the military to his will? We talk to Tom Nichols, a staff writer at the Atlantic who taught military officers for twenty-five years, about this dangerous step in establishing a dictatorship. He explains how close Trump came to achieving these goals in his last term and how surprisingly few effective checks are in place. And Nichols talks about his personal nightmare scenario.
