The decline of democracy has accelerated under President Trump
In a report by the Freedom House an independent watchdog, they found that “democracy faced its most serious crisis in decades in 2017,” citing the United States’ withdrawal from its historic role as a “champion and an exemplar of democracy.”
The role of the United States as an advocate for democracy around the globe has weakened, authoritarian regimes such as Russia and China have gained global influence and increased repression at home, slowly the oligarchy is taking over the US government.

"Independent watchdog" LOL! Dream on, my friend.
lol they gained global influence for stopping ‚‚advocate for democracy" to kill people, give weapon and logistic to terrorists and ruin countries around the world.
and they didnt just gained influence, its already over.
it gone to history - times when they could call ‚‚no fly zone‚‚ and flatten to dust everyone they dislike. it wont happen ever again. and its hard to live with that. Freedom house is one of those who are crying loud because theres no war in Korea, and because noone killed civilians of Crimea and such.
