Trump Is Failing His Dictatorship Test

Ah, now I get it. You think presidents should have the power that Trump wants to possess, instead of being held hostage by the Congress because when a president is held hostage by the Congress, it makes it easier for people like Putin.

Are you admitting that Trump wants power far beyond that which the President should possess?

As I said, you are living in a fantasy, you have nothing to point to IN THE REAL WORLD to back this insane argument. This is pure cultist nonsense.

Very true, well said.

We don't share your recent history.

It is only found in your media.

And personally, I can't stomach that level of stupid.

So I am unfamiliar with the details of your nonsense.

If you are that unfamiliar with some of the most highlighted history of Obama's admin, why are you here?

Don't tell me. Orange man bad.

That's cray cray. Everyone knows what Trump has done for Putin. From Syria to Ukraine to sanctions to the G8. Your fanboy pretend ignorance isn't fooling anyone. We see the mullet.

Right, arming Ukraine must have been very popular with Putin. Syria? Oh, you mean extracting ourselves from the quagmire and letting Putin get more deeply sucked in? Yea, awful.:lol: This is too funny...and easy.

I see. So I shouldn't take Bernie at his word? If he said anything rational, I wouldn't. When he shows his true colors, I listen.

Go ahead and link to ANYTHING where Bernie gives ANY indication he is going to nationalize the US auto industry.

He supports the GND which would nationalize 30% to 40% of US industry. How far behind do you think autos would be and why would that even matter? It's a recipe for disaster.

If Trump and his Russian goons had their way, aid to Ukraine would have been halted.

What the hell does theocracy have to do with anything? Do you support abortion on demand up to delivery day? Or even after? You see no moral problem here? Good grief....

Oh, and the idea that Goldwater would have supported the left's current abortion position is rather absurd. He opposed any calls for abolishing it. That is not the same as favoring unfettered abortion.
Click to expand...

It doesn't matter that you don't see it. I'm confident most others do.

Agreed on Goldwater, hence one reason why he'd be disappointed. Your theatrics about "unfettered abortion" is a straw man argument. No one has suggested it except you. Current laws are fine and prevent such a thing.

After impeachment, the president has been passing most of the checkpoints on the way to authoritarianism.



The article author offers extended commentary on each of the 10 bullet points above.

The age of Generalissimo Trump is closer than you may think.

#6 is literally a president's job...lol

What ****ing idiot made up that list?

No.

Conservative media mostly propaganda.

Leading to a recent history disconnected from the rest of the world's consensus reality.

Be afraid.

Be VERY afraid!

So just to be clear, you are stating you have never heard of or know anything about

Obama tapping the phones of conservative reporters and raiding their homes for information
Weaponizing the IRS exclusively against conservative businesses
Having the Senate change the vote requirement to confirm a SCOTUS from 60 to 50 to stack the court
Creating a fake dossier against a political opponent to get FISA warrants to spy on their campaign
And for the first time in history, having a former president running an organization against a sitting president.

Make it clear. You know nothing about any of those historical events. I want to hear you say it.

Cite or they didn't happen. (I know the supreme court one) I think you mistakenly assigned at least one to Obama that wasn't him, hence the call for citation.

Prepare to be mocked if you cite conservative propaganda sites for your citations.

Well, I wouldn't put it like that. I'm saying that all recent presidents have been carrying the EO thing way too far. Can you climb off your anti-Trump soap box just for one minute to like this post? By the way, Obama and his deep state were about as bad as Trump.

Nope, Make it clear. You know nothing about any of those historical events or stop wasting my time.

You make it clear and I will be more than happy to provide you with all the information you need.

Of course, you can't name anything that Trump has done for Putin.

President Donald Trump on Monday put the brakes on a preliminary plan to impose additional economic sanctions on Russia, walking back a Sunday announcement by U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley that the Kremlin had swiftly denounced as "international economic raiding."
