"He's now president for life. President for life. No, he's great," Trump said. "And look, he was able to do that. I think it's great. Maybe we'll have to give that a shot some day."

11. Would? Did! Obama made himself dictator.

Just grabbed this old headline from WaPo: "The good news for President Obama: His detractors no longer think he's a socialist. The bad news: He's now a dictator. Since the beginning of Obama's presidency, Pew has been asking Americans to describe the president in one

7. You dont have to imagine. It was the right that was pushing the following conspiracy.

In the waning years, the right wing was fearmongering that Obama was going to cancel the election in order to stay in office. Obama did not have to say anything stupid. The right wing made the stupid up just like Don the Con did.

8. O didn't have to muse about it, the nuts were convinced he wouldn't leave office.

Just like they were convinced he was going to take their guns away. And we're not supposed to call them idiots??

10. If Mr. Obama had one day like dotard...

It would be “Off to Gitmo with you”.

[logosoco]

12. This reminds me of the time W. made a "joke" about how easy it would to be a dictator.

I guess there are enough people in this country who don't see a problem with these type of remarks and keep voting republican. (they also don't get the whole economy thing either, but that's a whole other post!)

[SamKnause]

13. It seems everyone has forgotten about George W. Bush's quote, "If this were a dictatorship

it would be a heck of a lot easier....as long as I'm the dictator. Hehehe."

Republicans love dictators and they want to be dictators.

They hate democracy.

14. Imagine the outrage if Obama had... done/said any of tons of things Trump has. (n/t)
