Roger Griffin | This House Believes Trump is a 21st Century Fascist | Cambridge Union

Roger Griffin speaks as the second opposition for the motion in the Debating Chamber on Thursday 6th February 2025. As the United States grapples with the radical uncertainty of a second Trump administration, the time is ripe for a thorough evaluation of what his second presidency will mean, and of the conduct of the 2024 campaign. The campaign itself was dominated in its closing argument by this label, especially in an article backed by quotes from John Milley, but also led to fears of minimisation of fascism and political polarisation. This debate will discuss whether the label of 21st-century fascist is fitting to Trump or too extreme.

Cambridge Union Society Debate Info: In The Chair: Sammy McDonald Taking the Minutes: Leonas Pausch The Debate Motion title is always preceded in context by the phrase “This House Would”, “This Would Believes”, or simply “This House”. The Debate motion is typically phrased in Proposition of the argument prior to any votes or speeches, regardless of controversial nature. Six 10 minute speeches are given, alternating between each Proposition & Opposition speaker of the Debate Motion. The Chair governs authority over interjections, time limits, and any discretions/arrangements agreed between speakers and/or CUS. There are two ways interjections can be made by audience members; a Point of Information (upon acceptance from the speaker) or a Floor Speech. (Interjections are not to be interpreted as Audience Questions and can be denied or ignored at discretion of the Speaker or Chair) Points of Interest cannot be made during the first & last minutes of any speech, they also must be under 30 seconds and maintain relevance. (As a result it is impractical to provide microphones for Points of Interest and apologise for any issues with audibility) Floor speeches are made by audience members at intervals during the Debate discussing support for Proposition, Opposition or Abstention. (The Union rarely publishes Floor Speeches due to Release Form arrangements within membership contracts) At the end of the Debate, all Speakers and audience members cast their vote as they leave the Debating Chamber through doors labelled “AYES” & “NOES”, with the central door exit representing Abstentions. The Chair calls an announcement shortly after the Debate to confirm the votes.
