POLITICO · Erdoğan seizes geopolitical moment to snuff out democratic oppositionBy Jamie Dettmer

@EugeneMcParland
It was only a matter of time (He must be getting senile as he ages IMO) before #Erdogan made himself both perpetual supreme political commander and spiritual leader. All of these mad men (narcissists) end up that way once they get a taste of power.

It’s a shame this is happening to what is at the core of Turkey, its warm and welcoming people.
