On MSNBC's The Weeknight, Angelo Carusone discussed a "disturbing new trend in the right-wing media" of rebranding authoritarianism.

Carusone noted that the media is a big part of this narrative, and that Trump's actions are seen as a response to this perceived threat.
Carusone found the rebranding of authoritarianism to be the most concerning aspect of this trend.
