Summary

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz Tim Walz warns that Trump may soon arrest political opponents and potentially groom one of his sons, likely Donald Jr., as a successor.

“It’s going to get very dark,” Walz told CNN, citing Trump’s defiance of a judge’s order on Venezuelan migrants and calls to impeach a federal judge as evidence of authoritarian tendencies.

He expressed concern that Democratic leaders underestimate Trump’s authoritarianism and public frustration with both parties.

Walz criticized Schumer’s handling of the GOP spending bill and questioned how Democrats will rebuild institutions damaged by Trump.

      I’m talking about Democrats, not liberals. Two different things; the Democrat party consists of more than just liberals. Don’t conflate the two.

        The Democrat party is run by liberals though. Their base is primarily liberal, or at least they think it is. The Democrat party may be a “big tent” party but they do not actually act like one.
