Damn right he was right. Trump has pushed our republic to the brink of autocracy and will keep pushing until he’s voted out. Read “How Democracies Die” and see just how many warning signs we’ve already sped past.

Reblogged this on The Secular Jurist and commented:
Excerpt: “I have never in my professional life ever spoken out in this way. I certainly have my own opinions and have a yard sign at elections and make sure I vote. But I spoke out because he represents the greatest threat to American democracy since the Second World War. He is so fundamentally un-American, and not only because he is unqualified, but because he is mentally unsuited. He represents a kind of strong man, narcissistic thing that represents the potential death of the Republic. All of my films are about the United States and all of them are about trying to understand how it works and how it doesn’t work, and I just felt compelled to speak out.”
