I strongly advise keeping an eye out for America’s version of the Reichstag fire.
You know, people don't realize that the motivation the God-forsaken, misbegotten left-wing ever began the obscene meme, BushisHitler, is exactly what you made reference to. They fabricated 9/11 as the motivation for the Bush Administration to wrest control, negate democracy in the same way Hitler did with the "Reichstag Fire".
But the diabolical left knew the truth, that Bush had no dictatorial designs, years before Bush demonstrated no megalomaniac aspirations, having left the White House, his presidency with dignity, honor, the Constitution as the ultimate law of the land, in smooth transition of power to his successor.
No one, not even his staunchest lapdogs have enough confidence to openly say Zero will vacate his democratically-elected post as Constitutionally deemed.
With Zero, absolutely, there is the real threat that he might very well indeed orchestrate a Reichstag Fire to his own nefarious end, as you've insightfully pointed out.
