Donald Trump's first 100 days in office have been marked by a lot of aspiring autocratic behavior—like deporting a legal resident without due process, targeting his political enemies, to walking right up to the line of ignoring the Supreme Court. Unfortunately, it's not a given that voters will care—or even clock that what they're seeing is bad. Atlantic staff writer Anne Applebaum joins Sarah to discuss how voters are seeing Trump, and how he's comparing to autocratic regimes around the world.

As the stock markets crashed on Friday, April 4, Donald Trump left Washington, D.C. He did not go to New York to consult with Wall Street. He did not go to Dover, Delaware, to receive the bodies of four American servicemen, killed in an accident while serving in Lithuania. Instead, he went to Florida, where he visited his Doral golf resort, which was hosting the Saudi-backed LIV Golf tournament, and stayed at his Mar-a-Lago club, where many tournament fans and sponsors were staying too.

Parpadeó. Pero no sabemos realmente por qué. Ya sea por la caída en cascada del mercado bursátil, los inversores que huyen de los bonos del Tesoro de Estados Unidos, los donantes republicanos que interfieren los teléfonos de la Casa Blanca o incluso por los temores por su propia cartera, el presidente Donald Trump decidió ayer (el 9 de abril de 2025) por la tarde levantar, temporalmente, la mayoría de sus aranceles arbitrarios. Esta fue su decisión personal. Su “instinto”, como él mismo dijo.

Under Trump, conflicts of interest are just part of the system. As the stock markets crashed on Friday, April 4, Donald Trump left Washington, D.C. He did not go to New York to consult with Wall Street. He did not go to Dover, Delaware, to receive the bodies of four American servicemen, killed in an accident while serving in Lithuania.
