Trump Reiterates He Wants to Be a 'Dictator' for 'One Day' at Wisconsin Rally

There's no probably about it. People like him don't give up power once they have it.

Let’s say he was dictator for one day only, just as a fun thought experiment.

That is also awful

Imagine someone walking into your house and saying, “I’m only going to ignore the law for 15 minutes while I’m here tonight.” Sorry, what the absolute fuck. Even if they kept their word that’s a monstrous thing to say, what the fuck are you going to do for those 15 minutes?!

That’s when you kick that fucker out of your house. So America, let’s kick that fucker out of this house.

he literally tried it once already, we don't really need to speculate if he'd go for it

I mean, we at least said we were against it. Slavery, the trail of tears, the Chinese exclusion act, and internment camps, as well as meddling in other countries’ elections, drone strikes, and border camps aren’t exactly pro-democracy, let alone gerrymandering and voter suppression that have been prevalent in poor and minority communities since they were first allowed to vote. I wish we’d been democratic from the start, but I think MAGAers are just continuing an American pastime.

Sean, I only want to be a dictator for one day, and I’m going to close the borders and drill, baby drill. But after that, I never want to be a dictator.

The thing with Trump is there's a chance he actually believes a) this is a reasonable take, and b) he'd be able to accomplish these goals in one day.

Even at least in the court of public opinion…

He only really wants to be a dictator for a single nanosecond. But that desire renews itself each nanosecond.

If you give a mouse a cookie..

This is the reality with dementia. When a brain loses the ability to encode new memories, every day is the same day.

Not a Purge, a Kristallnacht. But with a wider range of victims than the original. The difference is, in a Kristallnacht, the police aren't just standing down, or even rampaging as individuals, they're specifically instructed to attack the chosen victim groups.

Yeah “I only want to be a dictator until everyone who ever called me or will call me a dictator is killed and then I’m just president and commander in chief and supreme justice and speaker of the house and chairman, and general secretary and…”

Inb4 "sundowning" is caused by liberal space lasers.

That is some serious optimism.

When polls show the Democrats way ahead we still lose. Polls are practically tied and we're even losing ground in important places because of our literal obsession with giving Bloodthirsty Bibi whatever the fuck he wants unconditionally...

That's not even to mention the ratfucking planned to occur in some swing states to make the vote counting stop until SCOTUS pulls another Bush v Gore.... The smaller red counties are done earlier since they are smaller they get done first, Trump shows a lead, then they "find irregularities" with the larger majority Democrat districts and drag that out by hand counting until the SCOTUS says "pencils down, the election is over you need to stop now!"

I'm generally a pessimistic person but I feel like this is almost a guaranteed Trump win... Still vote of course, just be ready to either storm the supreme court or get used to the idea that we're going to learn what it's like to be in a dictatorship.

yugest

Wow, yuge seems like so long ago

In a dark little corner of my imagination, I kinda want to see how many of his remaining base would actually try it. J6 scooped up a ton of radical nut-bars. How many more could there be?
