Is Trump going to successfully turn this country into a dictatorship?

[ElementaryPenguin]

From the outset of his administration, it was clear that this is what the orange slime bag had in mind, but I was convinced he was hopelessly overmatched. I'm no longer confident that he will fail. I honestly didn't foresee the right so easily and so widely accepting treason.

1. Yes

There will be pockets of governmental resistance but imo, now, with the Barr report?

Yes

8. The Trump right is now more emboldened than ever!

[CentralMass]

2. It it an Oligarchy and the oligarchs are both foreign and domestic.

[ElementaryPenguin]

7. Excellent point.

[sarcasmo]

3. My 6 hour Canadian route says, it's possible.

[Hoyt]

4. No. Besides, too many other GOPers want to be Prez someday.

15. Agree...

[cwydro]

5. Nope.

6. Hope you're right.

Used to feel the same way.

13. What do you think Warren, Harris, Buttigieg,

Biden, Pelosi, Schumer, etc. think?

I bet their answers would be the same as mine.

Take a deep breath.

9. No

10. Trump Enterprises now runs the country. DOJ will protect them.

This sucks. Now i know why the Russians drink vodka.

11. The biggest concern is that Mueller just handed a sociopath the key to the kingdom.

Thanks, Mueller

12. No. This is probably the beginning of the breakup of the United States.

It all rides on what happens in 2020.

14. Look on the bright side

History has shown all dictatorships ultimately fail.

However, God help those who fall victim in the interim. Plus those who have to clean up the mess afterward.

16. No, the truth is still going to get out.

You can't stop lies in this day and age, but you can't stop the truth either.

[VOX]

17. America is headed for the scrap-heap, since facts and laws are now worth shit.

When observable, measurable reality and actual facts are repeatedly trashed, twisted, and mocked, and with enough of the public willing to accept the lies and to push tribal conspiracy bullshit, and the media is only after viewer shares, then the door is wide open to autocratic rule.

We’re almost there now. I’m even wondering if there’ll be an election in 2020, since the goons that surround 45 aren’t keen to give up the keys.

18. Our laws to protect Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid must be made untouchable

along with some very strong laws for the rights of women and minorities. Even the Supreme Court must never again touch these laws. The President has too much power. With each election we all start worrying what is going to happen to us. They smile, shake our hands and behind that smile they are starting to plan on how to repay their masters for giving them the presidency. There are so many basic rights that must be protected under any circumstance, we can no longer depend on any elected official to be for America first. I believe for America to survive we must get back our love of this great Country in our selves and stop looking for a savior that will do the work for us.

[Buckeyeblue]

19. Nope. To be a dictator you'd have to confiscate guns...
