You guys get too easily distracted by your personal pathos than the ethos you purportedly debate.

I think Jim sees Ake as patient zero spreading a form of undemocratic oligarchic fascism around the world.

He shouldn't and Ake doesn't have the logos, ethos, psychos or cash.
Trump does.

Donald has completed 3 of the five steps to dictatorship.

I bet one dollar that Trump goes down before Putin because of our system and civil servants.
