At some point in the future, historians, political scientists, journalists and other experts will convene to discuss and debate the Age of Trump and how the “world’s greatest democracy” succumbed to autocracy and authoritarianism.

Many see this as a chance to call halt and stop the descent into all-out autocracy - if it's not already too late.

Some protesters say the demonstrations also represent wider concerns over Turkey's shift toward autocracy, as well as the economy and healthcare.

By the very nature of how power is concentrated around the Leader and their inner circle, autocracies and authoritarian regimes are almost always kleptocracies and plutocracies.

But creating conditions in which such examples can flourish may seems like a pipe dream as America risks descending into autocracy, where no dialogue is possible or permitted.
