Let us know when Trump starts advocating violence, riots and getting people fired for expressing the wrong opinions.

And talking about dictatorship is just hyperbolic pablum.

Our system of government doesn't allow for dictatorships.

Their is this concept called the Overton Window. Overton Window can shift and sway from left to right. Sadly the Overton Window has shifted way way into the left. The Overton Window is controlled by Academia, the Media, Social Media. It is also controlled by nearly half of the American white liberal population, and extremely small numbers of black thought leaders, and other minority groups which do not speak for the majority of their populace.

There are people in this country who are low functioning. They aren’t educated and minimum wage jobs are all they can do. They deserve to eat. He was callous toward the working poor but defended corporations to the point he refused to look at economics that proved him wrong.

That’s all. I get that type of response from republicans. Fascist. Democrats aren’t going to defend corporations and blame poor poverty.
