The water temperature is up to 150 and the frogs are still happily croaking.

I think that's exactly the point they were making. They've been in 150 degree water. They know that the modestly warm temperature we're in is far, far lower than 150 degrees.

Not exactly the same as what you find in one-party authoritarian countries like Cuba or Venezuela. Certainly Trump is vastly more illiberal in temperament and attitude than anyone we've seen in that office in modern times, and that's absolutely dragging the country in that direction - but being dragged in a given direction is not the same as having moved into something that can be identified as currently close to an autocracy.

Seems to me that you're one of the frogs.
