Donald Trump has turned the Republican Party into the greatest threat to American democracy, according to one conservative legal expert.
Attorney Richard North Patterson, a former member of the Council on Foreign Relations, argued in a new column for The Bulwark that a "post-truth" GOP has become "pre-fascist," and explains how Trump's "big lie" on election fraud conditions his followers to accept any action undertaken to keep him in power.
