Why can’t people see that Trump wants to be an authoritarian?

Anonymous
Slowly taking over media that doesn’t praise him, total control of DOJ, scapegoating nonwhites and promoting Christian nationalism, monuments to himself, building a propaganda machine, lying to citizens that economy is A+++ etc etc. When will people open their eyes and see that this narcissistic, misogynistic, racist, demented pedo “emperor” has no clothes and he DOES NOT CARE ABOUT ANYONE BUT HIMSELF?

NP. I think they see it. But they found life under Biden intolerable for whatever reason, and they welcomed this. I don’t understand it, but I also think one of the major issues in politics right now is the inability of people to not understand their political opponents. I don’t need to understand it.

Yes, a pen to sign bills, sent to him by Congress. You remember those, don’t you?

I think they see it but they like it. It's what they wanted.

They instinctively like authoritarian leaders—as long as it’s THEIR guy, not the other side’s guy.

They are past Republicans as all talk and he is their guy finally putting the talk into action.

To be fair, we had media silencing under the previous administration, lawfare against opponents, promotion of non-religious religions (LGBTQ+, BLM, etc), lying about the economy, and so on. Flip side, same coin.

Yes, it’s been posted before, but they crave an authoritarian leader, and they need to be told what to do and think.

It’s a psychopathology.

A. Not a religion B. Trying to make society inclusive to marginalized groups is a worthy goal C. Is a major teaching of JC, last time I checked.


Also not “lawfare” when you are a criminal, which Trump is. You are just in a cult.

And by “media silencing” they mean “not reporting my cult beliefs as fact”, ie Pizzagate, 5G vaccines, etc.
