This is not an unusual position from the Never Trumpers, who all seem to believe that Trump is a Bad Man and is the next coming of Adolph Hitler
Donald Trump’s former lawyer and one-time fixer Michael Cohen has warned that his ex-boss will run the country “like the Führer” if he is re-elected in November, thanks to the recent Supreme Court ruling on presidential immunity.
On Monday, the Supreme Court ruled that Trump, and other presidents, have absolute immunity from prosecution for actions that fall under a president’s “core” powers – or those directly given by the US Constitution.
The majority of justices also ruled that presidents have broad immunity from criminal prosecution for “official acts” but not for “unofficial acts” – though the court did not specify what these acts could be.
Citing theTrump vs US ruling, Cohen told The Daily Beast that the former president could now wield his power in whatever way he wants if he takes back the White House this November.
“He’ll run the country like a king, like a supreme leader, like a monarch, like a dictator, like the Führer,” Cohen said, invoking the German word strongly associated with Nazi leader Adolf Hitler.
Even with the ruling, Trump understands there are limits. Regardless, what evidence is there that he will do be Hitler 2.0? Did he do this during his first term? Other than 15 days to end the pandemic, which wasn’t his idea, did he take away people’s freedoms? Start imprisoning Americans for minor offenses or nothing? Start killing them? Did he ban the Democratic Party? It’s not Trump who hates Jews, Gypsies, and others. He worked to end wars, not see them started. He didn’t build death camps. He sure didn’t tell people what they can and can’t drive. Seriously, what evidence is there?
Cohen went on to claim that Trump plans to dismantle parts of the government to consolidate power to the executive branch in which he now has immunity from criminal prosecution.
“Members of the Supreme Court and federal judges will similarly become neutered as Donald fulfills his promise to dismantle our tripartite system of government, stripping the legislative and judicial branches of their coequal power and conferring all power to the executive branch; meaning himself,” Cohen said.
Oh, lord. Cohen is using the insane Project 2025 stuff, which, if real and not a Democrat false flag, is simply bad politics. It’s throwing lots of different red meat to all different beliefs within the Republican Party. But, none of it would lead to Trump being a dictator. Some of it overlaps Trumps Agenda47. If Trump wins, he’ll do pretty much what he did during his first term, which was working to reduce federal regulations on US citizens, sort of working to stop illegal immigration, decreasing the burden of federal government on citizens, reducing taxation on all, increasing freedom and freedom from government. We sure won’t get a “mandate” forcing citizens to switch to EVs and a DOJ that tries to put citizens in jail for 20 years for wandering around the Congressional building.
But, the wacko Never Trumpers and some Democrats have actually convinced themselves that Trump is Hitler 2.0. That’s how crazy they are. Trump is not a good person, just like most politicians. But, his policies are a darned sight better than Biden and any Democrat, so, I’d rather he be in office.
We don’t need to speculate how Trump will act as president. He already was president once. You can expect him to act the same way, but hopefully be more wary about backstabbers in his own administration. He won’t murder-Drone anyone like Obama did. He won’t create legislation and spending bills by decree like Biden did. He won’t ignore the courts like Biden did. he won’t ignore the laws passed by congress like Obama and Biden did. He won’t prosecute his political opponents like Biden did. He won’t use the power of the FBI and DoJ coerce private companies into suppressing free political speech like Obama did. He won’t use the FBI, CIA, and foreign intelligence agencies to spy on his political opponents like Obama did. The worst thing we can expect from a new Trump administration is that once again Democrats and establishment republicans will impede every effort he makes to do what the American people want him to do, and that he will leave office in 4 years, leaving a leadership vacuum and no more Trumps on the bench.
If some idiot in a robe from Hawaii blocks the legitimate exercise of his executive power, I’d hope he would not only ignore the court but arrest the judge.
Geeze, never heard that one before about Trump.
Meanwhile, the democraticals don’t seem to have a problem with people like this:

Shout it honey. Un huh.
The far-right reveres Trump for his faux “strength”, his bombastic nature… they all imagine they can be the “man” Trump portrays on television.
They ignore all the misery that follows all of Trump’s bad decisions – withdrawing from the TPP, the Paris Agreement, the Iranian nuclear deal – his mixed response to the Covid pandemic, his subservience to Putin, his attempt to overturn the 2020 election, his increase in debt, his reversal of Roe v Wade. Fortunately, he failed to overturn the ACA – claiming “Nobody knew that health care could be so complicated”. He neglected American infrastructure. He hates compromise.
“Lock her up!”, he bellowed, then denied, not understanding the videotape concept. He lied and continues to lie relentlessly. Trump controls the Repubicun Party just has Putin controls Russia. He destroys the careers of those that don’t kiss his corpulent arse!
America continues to grow richer, but our working class not so much. Such is the genius of a television-trained politician like Trump (and Reagan before). The truth is they’re taking YOUR taxes, reducing YOUR Social Security and Medicare, taking the fruits of YOUR labors, and redistributing the spoils to the rich and persuading you it’s for your OWN good!!! Genius!! Reagan, Clinton, Obama and Trump were and are the great persuaders of our times. Reagan was misguided, Trump is evil, Clinton and Obama were neither.
Trumpians propose to slash investments in education, science and medicine – investments needed for the future of America. Trump lacks trust in others, judgement, critical thinking skills, self-awareness and empathy. His bravado hides his self-doubt – to be bold is to be right! Even when wrong.
Trump wrongly believes America must be unified. By force if necessary. No! We need to learn to compromise and cooperate for the common good. The common good.
Run Joey run!

Funny-“his withdrawing from the Paris agreement..”. His “withdrawing” has done nothing, and the Paris agreement, even if implemented, would do nothing. Notice J starts with the false premise that the Paris agreement is somehow needed. “His reversal of Roe-Wade”. Actually, it was the Supreme Court-apparently they’ve been searching for a “right” to an abortion in the Constitution that a prior SC found, but to no avail. So, to liberals despair, they followed the Constitution and the issue went back to the states. Apparently, our states have some crazy provision whereby the citizens of each state can vote in representatives that are either for or against abortion. Just like Hitler……
You are such a fucking useless bullshitter.
All of those were wins for the USA.
Why did you expect him to provide a political solution to a medical problem — when the “medical professionals” were all fucking lying on TV? You’re an idiot.
When did he get away with invading Crimea, Ukraine, etc? Hint: not while Trump was president. You’re a fucking idiot.
Fixed it for you, asshole.
Compared to Brandon? And as a result of a shutdown he didn’t want? Fuck you.
He didn’t do that, the court did, and rightly so. Read the Constitution, asshole.
The word you’re looking for is COHESIVE, something which is not possible with 35 million foreigners ushered in.
Go fuck yourself.
William Teach: Regardless, what evidence is there that he will do be Hitler 2.0?
Trump said he would be dictator on day one. You know what they call a dictator on day one? A dictator.
Z, little child,
Yes he did say that. But people of your age do not understand tongue in cheek. What power Trump will have on taking over from Biden was put in place by him and Obama, the two worse presidents in our history. He will simply use the powers of the presidency to reverse the sea of destruction by Biden who used presidential dictates to create laws. We will be able to get our country back.
Oh those kiddieZz.
What will they come up with next?
Trump will be the end of our democracy as we know it?
We know already on Day One he will rid us of “The View”, Ricky Maddow, Joy Reid and “Morning Joe”.
It would be so nice if he could do those things. Maybe he will ship all of them with the 10 million “newcomers”.
He said he would be a dictator ONLY on day one, which by the time he is inaugurated will be half over. Saying he would be a dictator doesn’t make him one. Read what he actually said, not what your fellow activists tell you he said. Since his “dictates” (he also said what they would be) are all inside his lawful presidential authority, they are no more “dictatorial” than any other president’s first day. Unlike with the Biden administration, checks and balances will still be in place, so even on his first day , he will be less dictatorial than the Biden administration. Or do you want to make the claim that ignoring the congress and spending money not authorized by law isn’t “dictatorial”? Or that ignoring the Judicial branch and forgiving student loan debt with no legal authority to do so isn’t “dictatorial”. Or that appointing a special prosecutor to arrest and imprison his political rivals, with no legal or budget authority to do so isn’t “dictatorial”. Or that using the FBI, CIA and foreign intel agencies to spy on his opposition political party isn’t dictatorial? Or to imprison supporters of his opposition party under any pretext needed isn’t dictatorial? Or that failing to faithfully administer the laws of the United States in order to implement a deliberate policy that is contrary to the laws passed by congress and supported by courts isn’t “dictatorial”?
You really need a better quality of activist to cut-paste from. Honest argument starts with honesty. Misleading by omission is still lying. If you defend your position on this you are a liar. Your only defense is that you were just repeating what you heard. Admit you were wrong, otherwise there is no point talking to liars who just make stuff up. There are plenty of other web sites that specialize in fictional realities.
Well since they cannot be taken seriously it is more enjoyable to mock and make fun of them and their stupidity. N’est-ce pas?
Fortunately, Mr Trump’s personal Supreme Court has seen fit to make his “dictates” more palatable!!
Just like his 20.16 version, Trump v20.24 will use the DOJ and FBI to punish his “enemies”, and this time he’ll appoint toadies unbothered by ethical concerns. He can pardon them for any crimes. Don’t you realize that Trump has no conscience, no self-control, no empathy?
He wants to Unify the Reich!!
You worry about lies on the left, while lies are the lifeblood of Trump and right.
Yes, Trump plans to be a dictator. Who will tell him no?
Stop your whining, Rimjob (aka SMF).
Joey saysh he’sh shtaying in it and he’sh gonna win it.
Just try and schallenge him.
So you left wing radicals don’t believe anything trump ever said except that? Do you understand what snide malarkey is? Look it up dude. He didn’t mean literally turning into a dictator and if you took it that way then you’re a child. He meant acting immediately to change things that needed changing without asking questions or permission from anyone.
You know exactly like pedo Joe did on his first day when he sat at that desk and through executive order (dictatorially) overthrew 91 previous rules set by Trump. For no other reason that they were sent by Trump some of them were very good but he threw them out anyhow just to show contempt.
Do you believe pedo Don was lying about being a dictator and seeking revenge and retribution against those that opposed him?
Would you support pedo Don ordering “his” DOJ to indict Democrats like Hillary, Joe, Hunter, Barack, Schumer, AOC, Pelosi, Prosecutors Fani, Jack Smith and Bragg, and others like Liz Cheney, Adam Kinzinger, etc for all their crimes against America?
Should we shorten pedo Don to just peDon? I still prefer Felonious-T, America’s shittiest rap(p)er.
3 rhetorical questions and that’s it for the Rimjob (aka SMF).
Another lesson in using and re-using logical fallacies as arguments but just looking stupid.
Someone a whole lot smarter than you said in 2016 that:
“Trump’s supporters take him seriously but not literally, while his haters take him literally but not seriously.”
You’re full of shit. You’ve had nine years to work out what earns his support and four years to judge how he will behave in a second term, yet you fixate on piddling nonsense like this. Pathetic.
Felonious-T, America’s Shittiest Rap(p)er it is.
Mr Teach repeats from some right-wing lugnut (Gateway? Breitbart?, Trump?): Project2025 stuff, which, if real and not a Democrat false flag
We’ve heard that same suggestion from multiple conservatards so it’s being handed down the chain.
Are youse guys going with that canard? It’s a Dem false flag operation? LOL.
Decide for yourself: https://www.project2025.org/
So what are you so worried about, Rimjob (aka SMF)?
Joey says he’s staying in and he’s gonna win.
So, when Trump says he wants to be dictator, he’s joking or not really or lying.
Meanwhile, Trump calls for “termination” of Constitution
Seems to me Zach the only people who have terminated the constitution recently are democrat/communists.
Do you want us to go through a whole list of all the illegal unconstitutional things they’ve been doing and are still doing like not guarding our borders properly? You talk about constitution do you think of kangaroo courts prosecution of your political rivals and holding American protesters in jails for months and months without trial?
You people are the greatest projectionists that ever existed on the planet earth. Everything you accuse others of billing you either have done or will do.
We would figure by now with all the lies of the entire Democrat party and their allies in the media etcetera covering for Biden all these years coming to light that you would at least stop lying about everybody else and start trying to clean up your own camp. And I guess asking for the truth from sociopathic narcissistic people who form up your political party it’s kinda futile.
You spent the last four years dominating the political conversation lacking of empathy and wanting things done only your way. You keep screaming about democracy but you forget that this is a Republic which is supposed to protect the rights of the minority not crush them under your boot. But as typical nazis are today do you like the crushing better. You want things done you are weighing only your way, you’re quick to blame others, you have a sense of entitlement that’s unbelievable you even like to break the rules you’re arrogant lack empathy you’re inconsiderate you disregard the views of others and you consider everybody else’s beliefs and opinions invalid.
And boy are you controlling you want things done your way and when you can’t you try and change the rules to get them done your way right now you’re busy and yourself trying to figure out how to make all the ballots come out the way you want them and then had a crush in Supreme Court make DC and Puerto Rico a state and get illegal aliens the vote.
You are incapable of receiving feedback and you’re oblivious to the fact that you’re talking about yourself all the time.
In fact your current Democrat party since it’s been taken over by radical leftists has become a walking talking psychological disorder for millions of Americans. You seem to hate everything good with America and embrace all the evil and bad. You have become the enemy of your country and find the need to blame everybody else and point the finger and others.
L.G.Brandon!, L.G.Brandon!: Do you want us to go through a whole list of all the illegal unconstitutional things they’ve been doing and are still doing like not guarding our borders properly?
Fallacy of diversion. The question concerned evidence of Trump’s fascist tendencies. We provided several significant facts that support the claim.
Seems the kiddieZ are providing their own little diversion with their so-called “significant facts” which are merely repetitive democratical talking points.
STFU and go away.
You’re annoying the grown-ups.
