Saturday, Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) said on MSNBC’s “AM Joy” that President Donald Trump was “looking more like a dictator than a president.”
Waters questioned the patriotism of Republican congressmen who refuse to stand up to Trump, saying they are “allowing” him to side with Russian President Vladimir Putin when he says he did not interfere with the 2016 Presidential Election.
Waters also added that Democrats are the “real patriots” of the country.
is she right? Or overreacting and using the word dictator wrongly?
Well, let's see:
1. He puts his kids and in-laws into political positions, undeserving as they are of such favoritism.
2. He heavily conflates his policy as President with his financial benefit as a businessman.
3. He vociferously attacks a free and independent press that criticizes him in any way.
Ring any bells? Give you three guesses what kinds of people behave in this manner. The only reason he's not a dictator is because our Constitution was wisely enough designed where it won't easily let him get away with it. But no doubt he would silence all criticism of himself if he could.

bhaaa!!!!!.......free and independent press???? LMAO! STOP IT!
Maxine Waters, Nancy Pelosi, Elizabeth Warren, and Chuck Schumer. I sincerely hope the Dem party continues to elect wackos like them. Their die hard constituents keep electing these relics while at the same time sabatoging any chance of electing fresh leaders into the party.
Get used to losing Dems, this rut you've dug yourselves into is going to be your home for a while.

Yes, she is right. Look up the 14 traits of fascism hanging in the Holocaust museum. Trump is following all 14.
Trump also praises dictators, which non-dictators/dictator wannabes don't do.
