Mika on Trump Praising China Pres.: ‘Countries Not Built on’ Democracy Say ‘This Is How It Starts’

‘I’m saying it very calmly’

EXCERPT:

SCARBOROUGH: “This man worships autocrats. He admires them. He admires them seizing power and he has very little respect for whom? People that run western-style democracies. He gets in fights with the Merkels, he gets in fights with the Macrons, he gets in fights with the Mays. He doesn’t get in fights with tyrants. And of course, you know, it speaks actually to his intentions when you hear him talking about stripping licenses, broadcasting licenses from networks with whom he disagrees.”
BRZEZINSKI: “I think you nailed it. The trend is unmistakable. You talk to anybody who comes from a country that is not built on the foundations of democracy, they will tell you this is how it starts. I’m saying it very calmly that this is what you look at. You look at this trend, and it is unmistakable."
