The second Trump administration’s tour of terror is nothing more than a get-rich-quick scheme, argues one former Yale professor.
Timothy Snyder, a historian specializing in the history of the Soviet Union, Europe, and the Holocaust, said on The Daily Beast Podcast that President Donald Trump’s attempts to emulate fascism in the modern era fall flat because of one fatal flaw: greed.
“The fascists weren’t in it for the money, right? And these guys are in it for the money," Snyder, 56, told Daily Beast Executive Editor Hugh Dougherty. “It’s like, they have fascist moments, but they’re distracted by their desire to die incredibly rich.”
