Zack Beauchamp is a senior correspondent at Vox known for his sharp analysis of democratic backsliding and authoritarian movements. In this episode, he argues that Trump is failing to consolidate power—and that the system is holding, for now.

Andrew Marantz is a staff writer at The New Yorker who has reported extensively on the far-right and media manipulation. Drawing from his time in Hungary, he warns that authoritarianism can feel normal even as freedoms quietly vanish.
