This report, authored by Amanda Carpenter and others from United to Protect Democracy, examines the promises, powers, and plans of an authoritarian president, particularly Donald Trump, if he were to be re-elected.
It analyzes Trump's campaign promises in the context of global authoritarian trends and explains the legal and policy mechanisms through which these promises could be implemented.
The report also provides recommendations for mitigating the threat to democracy, including strategies for civil society, the public, and independent public servants to defend democratic institutions and protect vulnerable populations.
