Long-time political commentator Chris Matthews said Wednesday on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” that it was “very reasonable to assume” former President Donald Trump will become a dictator if elected.
After discussing former President Lyndon B. Johnson, Matthews added, “This is the opposite of Donald Trump, who wants to put them before firing squads basically. He wants put them all in jail. He’s unbelievable the way he talks about his opponents. This is exactly the choice we have a dictatorship, or a democracy. We have to choose. This election is about more than abortion, it is about the whole question of what kind of government we’re going to have? What kind of country do we want to live in, do we have a dictator who tells the U.S. Congress don’t do anything about the border, don’t do anything, let it rock ‘n’ roll, let thousands come through between now and election day, it doesn’t matter if they stay here forever, as long as we win the election.”
He added, “He’s going to talk like that to the Supreme Court. He would love to see them give him immunity, he would love to get that. He’s probably counting on it in this trial in New York too, about the hush money. He’s probably working on some back room plan to somehow speed this to the Supreme Court and let Alito and that incredible coup they pulled off there against Judge Roberts. Alito is running the show. So, you never know what can happen with his five members. I’m telling you, Trump could end up rolling the score. ‘I’ve got the Congress and the Supreme Court, I own it all, I am a dictator.’ It is very reasonable to assume that’s where he’s headed.”

Well, that’s one option.
Whatever it takes.
Like the ‘dictator’ he became last time?
Secure border, good economy, lower taxes, many initiatives to benefit disadvantaged populations and areas....gosh, give me some more of that ‘dictator’ stuff.
They’re afraid that Trump will do to them what they’ve done to him. (And his supporters)
A dictator like last time. Oh wait a minute
Sign me up, too!!!
Chris Matthews is being rehabilitated....................
Real dictator-wannabes like Obama give Little Chrissy a thrill up his leg. (Gross.)
There is absolutely no Biden record they can run on so they have to keep up the fear machine.
Dictator. Threat to democracy. White supremist. Going to take away your abortion. Going to push grandma off the cliff after Trump takes social security.
At some point you’d think people would start to catch on that Democrats have no other playbook.
Say Chris, let’s talk about what “assume” really means: it makes an ass out of you and me. And you just proved it.
When the left accuses others of doing perverse things they are are actually the guilty party.
Yeah, very reasonable. With the DOJ hiding everything they conspire, the NIH making $700 million in royalties on drugs they regulate, throwing political enemies into jail for years without trial and persecuting political opponents with sham trials, and $100 billion in a special foreign aid package - imagine what someone else may do with those powers!
Matthews is just projecting what his side would do, that’s all. That’s the way these rat communists think. He’s not smart enough to realize he’s exposing them by accusing Trump.
He wasn’t much of a dictator the first time. Didn’t even arrest a single journalist.
If Trump wins he needs to pardon everyone persecuted by Fedzilla.
Well he’s got that tingling up his leg.....
Matthews probably right, I mean you rarely can restore a Republic after it has been destroyed by a Fascist Dictatorship. Think about this:
1. Biden openly ignores the SCOTUS rulings on ‘paying off’ students for votes...aka...loan forgiveness which is a Congressional requirement.
2. Biden ignored Congress, Congressional law, and the SCOTUS and went ahead and had his own ‘special councils’ appointed by his appointed AG without any Congressional or Court approval.
3. Biden ignores all immigration laws, and lies that he can’t enforce or make any executive decisions to protect the public.
4. Biden LEFT Americans behind in GAZA and Afghanistan. You can sure count on your government to abandon you if your a US Citizen now.
5. Biden prosecutes J6’ers and lets BLM and Antifa walk. No equal enforcement of the law.
6. Biden withheld Congressional approved Aid to Israel for political reasons, after a deal was struck for Israel and Ukraine. They impeached Trump for less.
7. Biden refuses to release to Congress material of his interview with his appointed ‘special council’.
8. Biden uses the DOJ, FBI, and legal state offices in coordination to persecute political opponents.
The list goes on and on. You never get your Republic back, if you did it’s a miracle.
Dem voters are as insane as their candidates
I thought Hissy Chrissy would have returned to the toilet aka shit hole from whence he came from.
I don’t think he’s likely to become a dictator, but frankly, I’d still pick it over a continuation of the march to communism (also sometimes known as “our democracy”).
