22:01Now PlayingTerrorism expert Jonathan Winer joins Court of History's Sidney Blumenthal and Sean Wilentz, detailing what he describes as a calculated strategy by Donald Trump to exploit national crises and consolidate power, drawing parallels to the infamous Reichstag Fire, which authoritarian regimes have used to justify sweeping crackdowns. Winer warns that Trump’s rhetoric and actions mirror classic authoritarian playbooks, designed to instill fear, erode democratic norms, and trigger emergency powers. His analysis sheds light on the growing concerns among national security experts about threats to American democracy.
