One alarming possibility about the USA potentially becoming an autocracy: extremist acts—many driven by fascist ideologies—could gain significant influence in other nations. Just as the US shapes global societies culturally, scientifically, politically, militarily, and artistically, its descent into authoritarianism might amplify similar movements worldwide, which is a trend since a long time and the far right movement is one of the biggest menaces to the democratic world.

When Hitler rose to power, fascism and tyranny was sparking across Europe. His regime was the most notorious fascist government in history. As nazi Germany became a dominant force that precipitated World War II, how did its relative success embolden fascist movements in other countries? References welcome.

@everton137 ... The direction in the US right now is skeptical of authoritarianism. That's the whole reason Trump got elected, because people wanted to fill the vacuum of authority that had let them down.
