i've said this before, but trump has no understanding of or admiration for democracy or self-governance. he worships power and admires strongmen. he praises dictators and authoritarians because he's *jealous* of them. they can compel the worship he thinks he deserves. https://t.co/lSiO8I2G2f

Pompeo: “Just so you know, you could ask me this, I find that question insulting & ridiculous & frankly ludicrous.”
