Description

Trump’s “performative authoritarianism” as a campaign ploy designed for Fox News—that’s what Harold Meyerson says. He’s Editor at large of The American Prospect.
Plus: it’s time to disarm the police—that’s what Don Guttenplan argues. He’s editor of The Nation.
And film critic Ella Taylor is back with virus-time TV recommendations: this week, two Netflix shows about Brazil: an animated feature on migrant labor, and a documentary about the crisis of democracy there.
