Donald Trump and autocracy in America
Gideon Rachman talks to historian and author Anne Applebaum about the Trump presidency. The US president is increasingly accused of being a would-be dictator, but is it fair to compare Donald Trump to authoritarian leaders such as Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping?
This episode is an edited recording of an event organised by Intelligence Squared that took place in central London last month.
