Frida Ghitis : Nearly half of the Cabinet -level officials who served in Donald Trump’s first term have refused to endorse his reelection.

Ghitis says the number of Trump officials who have made this claim about him is extraordinary.

She says conservatives have largely ignored or dismissed warnings about Trump 's authoritarian tendencies.

This is in keeping a favored mantra by Federalist colleague Mollie Hemingway that any discussion of Trump ’s authoritarian tendencies is “assassination prep” Danielson predicts that Harris will encourage “resistance” in “coded terms” disguised as endorsements of peaceful protest.
