Whatever Trump is, his love of dictators is plain to see. The wannabe dictator has no qualms about making that fact clear. Crystal clear that is.
In an exchange with long time friend and buddy, Fox News host Sean Hannity, Trump had this to say when asked about his ‘dictator’ comment. Instead of toning down the rhetoric, the former Commander in Chief let loose, Trump style.
“We love this guy,” Trump said of Hannity. He says, ‘You’re not going to be a dictator, are you?’ I said, ‘No, no, no, other than day one. We’re closing the border, and we’re drilling, drilling, drilling. After that, I’m not a dictator.” That was in 2023.
Fast forward to 2024 and Mr. Trump was asked again during his Time magazine interview. Same question but this time around he replied, “A lot of people like it.” He got a swift rebuke from the Biden-Harris camp. Spokesperson James Singer had this to say.
“In his own words, he is promising to rule as a dictator on ‘day one,’ use the military against the American people, punish those who stand against him, condone violence done on his behalf and put his own revenge and retribution ahead of what is best for America. Bottom line: Trump is a danger to the Constitution and a threat to our democracy.”
Mr. Trump’s enthusiasm for autocrats is a well-known fact.
President Xi, according to Trump is “strong like granite and he runs 1.4 billion people with an iron hand.” Putin is a “genius” for taking over a country by just walking in. He was talking about the Russian invasion of Ukraine. He praised Saddam Hussein for being good at killing terrorists and Kim Jong Un as a terrific person simply because Kim wrote him beautiful letters and they fell in love! Let’s not forget the evil one. I mean Hitler. Trump has great admiration for the man who orchestrated the worst genocide in modern history. His regime killed 6 million Jewish people and eradicated the lives of hundreds of thousands of people with disabilities. According to one of Trump’s former chiefs of staff, he wanted to emulate Hitler’s leadership methods during his time in the White House.
Fawning over dictators is his mantra. Why? Perhaps because he wants total control of the United States. Remember him telling voters, that they would never need to vote again if he returns to the presidency in November? In his own words, he said, ” You have to vote. After that you don’t have to worry about voting any more. I don’t care because we’re going to fix it, the country will be fixed.”
Scary? Absolutely! Delusional? No doubt about it! Crazy? A straitjacket comes to mind but I won’t touch that one. Dangerous? There are no ifs or ands or buts about it!
