    No, no, you misunderstand. There are systems in place (that are being severely tested) that prevent him from being the absolute dictator that he tries to be. Perhaps “he’s a wannabe dictator” might be more accurate. It’s not over the top and I don’t really care if you disagree.

    Regarding Obama and Biden, yes, the US has a serious issue where recent presidents are ruling via executive order, this is not exclusive to Trump. This is also whataboutism and distracts from the point.

    If someone is so blind that they can’t see reality for what it is, they’re already lost. Peace.

      I don’t misunderstand anything. I can see clearly that you’re trying to change the goal posts because you realize what you said was inaccurate. You claimed he was a dictator. I pointed out that he’s not. I agree that the system in place is what prevents that. But that’s not something we’ve discussed. Now you claim that I misunderstand this which is absolutely childish, I understand just fine.

      I know it’s got nothing to do with what about isn’t. What about isn’t is where you trying to excuse bad behavior because somebody else did something different somewhere else that is also bad. What I’m talking about is this is the latest step in a long line of the same behavior. And if you didn’t speak up against it at the time you really can’t say anything now. If all trump is doing is what the president’s before him did and I’m not just saying democrats by the way then you can’t at this point argue that it’s some deep moral problem when you didn’t pipe up when other people were doing it

      That’s not what about it, that’s precedent. You’ve allowed the president to be set and now you have to accept that. You can’t just complain when somebody who you don’t like does something you have to be consistent about complaining the whole way through and you weren’t and the democrats weren’t either. So here we are

      When people from both sides stand up and complain about it regardless of losing power maybe something can change, but either way you can’t claim it’s a moral issue

          Ation what? That was like four short paragraphs how is that too long… ohhhhh I forgot. You’re a left winger😏😏

          I’ll keep it simple. If you do something that you don’t get to complain when somebody else does. Other than that the conversation gets way over your head it’s hard for me to translate Down to your level so we’ll have to leave it there

          Is that okay? Some of those words were pretty big, let me know if you need me to explain them

            No, I’m going to be nice here and not insult you like you did me, but I don’t think you aren’t worth arguing with and I’m not going to continue talking to you. Have a nice day :)
