When it comes to framing the 2024 presidential election, Peter Baker and the New York Times get it terribly wrong

 

A word search shows that 'authoritarianism' does not appear in the article.
And the only use of 'democracy' is this shortsighted babblefest.
The looming showdown between President Biden and former President Donald J. Trump, assuming Nikki Haley cannot pull off a hail-mary surprise, goes beyond the binary liberal-conservative split of two political parties familiar to generations of Americans. It is at least partly about ideology, yes, but also fundamentally about race and religion and culture and economics and democracy and retribution and most of all, perhaps, about identity.
