In the United States of America theword King is a four letter word.
Our first President, George Washington didn't want a third term (according to what I read of Him saying when in His Second Term as POTUS).

What little I have read of President Donald Trump He isn't interested in being a King.
Ifeel like He wants to be a Dictator .

His life before being elected to the Presidency let Him be in charge and have his properties ran His Way.

Does He know He was elected to Serve The People of the USA?

He is a dictator. So many who don't toe the line have been fired. It is Donald (or his staff) that keep posting memes of him as the Pope, or God himself. It seems to be normalized now.

That's the way it should be with your own properties but the USA is not a DJT property.

I never thought I'd see the things I see today in the USA but I do see them today.

The military build up off the coast of Venezuela is one of those things I never
thought I'd see.

In his mind, he probably thinks he is serving the people but to many of us outside his mind, one wonders.

That actually is something I would have thought we might see, but more during the times when Hugo was in charge and not now.

My understanding is that he doesnƒ€™t want to be a literal king - and
the Constitution wouldn't allow that even if he did. The presidency
has limits, checks, and a built-in end date no matter who sits
in the chair.

As for third terms, I'm not saying I'd support changing the rules,
but plenty of Obama supporters openly said they wished he could've
run again too. That kind of 'wishful thinking' happens from both
sides when people like their guy.

Regarding the 'dictator' comments: he joked early on about making
big changes "like a dictator" on day one - which is something
every modern president does with executive orders. That doesn't
mean he intended to be a dictator, any more than any other
president using executive authority.

I haven't found proof that he has a plan to eliminate elections
entirely. What is clear: he has stated he wants major changes
to how elections are run (for example, new citizenship proof
requirements, ending mail-in ballots, tighter controls).

Those moves could shift the balance of power in elections
and make them harder or less free for some voters. So I agree
there are warning signs; I just don't think we're at 'no more
elections' yet. It's more 'elections under different rules'
than 'no elections at all.'

Personally, I'm okay with election reform.

What little I have read of President Donald Trump He isn't interested in being a King.

He is a dictator. So many who don't toe the line have been fired. It is Donald (or his staff) that keep posting memes of him as the Pope, or
God himself. It seems to be normalized now.

On the 'firing people who don't toe the line' part - every
president hires and fires people in the executive branch. That's
not unique to Trump. Obama replaced people. Biden replaced people.
Bush, Clinton, Reagan - all of them made staffing decisions based
on who aligned with their administration's goals.

That doesn't automatically make someone a dictator; that's simply
how executive-branch appointments work. Cabinet members, agency
heads, and White House staff all serve at the pleasure of the president,
and turnover happens in every administration.

You have to remember you are talking wtih Alan here. He has TDS really, really bad.

To him, demanding ID to vote and not allowing illegal aliens to vote is "eliminating elections".

He thinks that because his masters on the TV told him that was the case.

The fact that he didn't respect the 2020 election results and incited

Trump telling people before the 2024 election "vote for me and you'll
never have to vote again" was the second clue.

Something which is widely discussed, and many Lefties are firmly
convinced of, but also something that he was never charged with, nor has
it ever been argued/proven in a court of law. Everybody's got an
opinion...

Trump telling people before the 2024 election "vote for me and you'll
never have to vote again" was the second clue.

As always, context is important. He said this while addressing a group
of potential Christian voters. He later clarified that he meant that if
he was elected, he planned to fix the country's problems enough that he wouldn't need the Christian (or commonly called the "evangelical" vote)
for the next election; implying that that group of people would be happy enough with what he had accomplished already.

True, but if Congress and the courts won't challenge the Constitutionality
of unconstitutional actions, they can sort of do whatever they want. Now, believing that Trump 2 is the first one who has had things go in his favor
in this regard is very naive.

Regarding the 'dictator' comments: he joked early on about making

I think if you look into that, the last 2 or 3 Presidents have been much
worse -- far beyond the point of abuse -- than most others when it comes to "day one" executive orders.

No one "sneaks" out of that echo. They just get tired of having the same old pedophile-defending talking points shouted at them after every post they make.
Everyone in that echo just repeats the same things you hear on OAN or from Megyn Kelly, or read on Infowars, The Gateway Pundit, or WND.

Any evidence or discussion points that don't "mesh" with what your cult leaders have told you, just get ignored, responded to with "NUH-UH!", or responded to with a rambling diatribe about an entirely different topic.

it's fucking exhausting.

You're all in a cult.

I find it a little ironic that republicans accuse democrats of repeating whatever they hear on TV (the public media), but I also hear republicans often saying a lot of the same stuff too, like they're repeating what they hear other people say. It's the same behavior; both republicans and democrats are in their own echo chambers.

you are not wrong. I do tend to notice that a disproportionate number of right-leaning folks project. They accuse LGBTQ+ people of being "sickos" or pedophiles, but it seems like the majority of people who are arrested or charged with such crimes are far-right "religious" types (not all! but a disproportionate majority).

Also, Trump keeps screaming about "politically motivated" criminal accusations, but is plainly using the DOJ to carry out politically motivated criminal accusations against his political enemies.

It's like he's made hypocrisy his entire personality.

things done. And I think it will continue.

Yeah, IMHO, the executive order is not inherently a bad thing if it is used correctly. It should be used as a stop-gap measure, until Congress can pass a law, or in emergencies only. With recent Presidents, it is becoming more a way to create "law" without going through the proper channels, and hoping that Congress and the courts don't question it.

These are strange times. Barack Obama averaged 35 orders per year
during his terms. Donald Trump 45, 55 per year - mostly overturning
egislation
that Obama passed. Biden averaged 41 per year , again, undoing some of
Trump's attempts to circumvent laws passed under Obama. On Trump's
second term, Trump has signed 217 orders, with an obedient majority in
the house and senate.
