Trump is facing criminal charges in two different courts because he didn’t call forth the militia as Lincoln did during the succession crisis at the start of the Civil War. The simple truth is, Trump wasn’t authoritarian enough to deal with the massive election fraud and foreign interference in the 2020 Election.

Maybe Nifster thought “Bump” was a satirical name for Trump. I didn’t. It’s the name of the author of this hit piece.

A president DEMONSTRATING actual leadership WITH ACTION is labeled authoritarianism by TDS haters.

“What authoritarianism?”
That’s not what Trump is, but Alexis de Tocqueville, the political philosopher who studied the various forms of government, concluded that the best form is a “benevolent dictator”.

It is the most efficient but it also descends into tyranny the fastest.
Providing you can even find a “benevolent dictator” in the first place.
