Ali Velshi: We're seeing a politically weak Trump throw the authoritarian spaghetti at the wall - The Last Word - MSNBC
MSNBC's Ali Velshi analyzes the increasingly volatile tactics of the Trump administration - indicting his perceived enemies, sending National Guard troops into U.S. cities, Trump officials clashing in hearings with Democratic lawmakers, and more - while reminding of something written by tyranny expert Timothy Snyder: "When we obey in advance, we invite the weak man to take power over our souls, which then means power over our politics." - Aired on 10/10/2025.
