Chris Murphy and other Democrats are warning that President Trump is attempting to undermine democracy and consolidate power through a series of actions, including using the military to intimidate opponents, seizing control of Congress's spending powers, and suppressing free speech. They argue that Trump's actions, such as deploying military force against protesters and withholding funding from states run by Democrats, are authoritarian tactics aimed at eroding democratic institutions. Democrats are calling for resistance and mobilization to protect democracy and prevent Trump's alleged plan to "rule forever".

"The Putin-Trump meeting was a disaster as predicted. Putin got everything he wanted: a photo op legitimizing his war crimes no ceasefire and no sanctions or new weapons for Ukraine. Trump's goal was to keep Putin happy. He succeeded"

"We aren't on the verge of an authoritarian takeover. We are in the middle of it. But I worry people don't see the whole scheme. They just pay attention to each new daily outrage. So I went to the Senate floor to explain Trump's plan. Here's a 🧵of the speech. It's important"

"8/ But Trump doesn't want to end the shutdown. Because he thinks he's a king and he doesn't believe the law applies to him. He thinks he has extra powers in a shutdown. He doesn't. But the longer Republicans boycott talks the more the shutdown will hurt. So it's their move"
