Murphy: We Are Reaching ‘Tipping Point,’ Won’t Be Able to Get Democracy Back

Senator Chris Murphy (D-CT) said Wednesday on MSNBC’s “All In” that the Trump administration is bringing America to a “tipping point” where democracy will soon be unattainable.

Murphy said, “So I just think there’s a tipping point at which you can’t get your democracy back. And I see all of these very purposeful lines of effort that the Trump administration and Elon Musk are taking. And I think we just have to be right now, at this moment on, you know, red alert mode. And what I see, right, is the normalization of violence. I don’t think you can underscore you can underestimate how impactful it is when you’re thinking about going out to a protest, and you might get beat up by somebody who has immunity for violence in Trump’s name.”
