00:00:00
This was Trump's net worth when he went
00:00:02
into office, $2.3 billion. And this is
00:00:04
his net worth now, just two years later,
00:00:07
$6.5 billion.
00:00:09
>> So, we've never had a president running
00:00:11
businesses while in office. And so,
00:00:13
decisions are being made not based on
00:00:15
what's good for Americans, but what's
00:00:17
good for his company. For example, why
00:00:19
did the Saudi government invest $2
00:00:21
billion in Jared Kushner's fund? It
00:00:23
wasn't because they just like Jared
00:00:25
Kushner. It was because Kushner is
00:00:27
Trump's son-in-law. And so my biggest
00:00:29
concern is the deterioration of American
00:00:31
democracy. I mean, it's already
00:00:33
happening. Most people think democracies
00:00:35
end with tanks in the street or somebody
00:00:37
shooting up the presidential palace, but
00:00:38
actually in the modern world, they
00:00:40
mostly end because someone who is
00:00:42
legitimately elected begins to take
00:00:44
apart the system. Trump, he has never
00:00:47
cared much one way or the other for
00:00:49
American democracy. He admires foreign
00:00:51
leaders who have no constraints. And I
00:00:53
have a goal that is to remind people of
00:00:56
why democracy is important and to pay
00:00:58
attention to the ways in which it's
00:01:00
declining so that we can fight back. So
00:01:02
we're just at the beginning of what
00:01:04
could be quite a big change.
00:01:05
>> So there's five core tactics that
00:01:07
autocratic leaders use to dismantle a
00:01:09
democracy. Could you walk me through the
00:01:10
five tactics? So first of all,
