Trump Is No Dictator

The opinions expressed by columnists are their own and do not necessarily represent the views of Townhall.com.

Labels, labels: If we are to believe the Left, Trump is Hitler! Vance is weird! It makes sense, unfortunately, for those on the Left to keep proclaiming that Donald Trump is a dictator. Enough low-information voters, particularly among Democrats, believe anything that the mendacious Biden/Harris administration tells them. As is apparent, the Democrats absolutely cannot run on their record. 

At the same time, anyone who pays even a modicum of attention to what the Biden/Harris administration is doing to America knows that this regime is as close to dictatorial as we've ever experienced in our 248-year history.

Puppet on a String

Through those pulling his strings, Biden has weaponized almost every federal agency and routinely employs such weaponization. By now, everyone who is paying attention is familiar with how the Department of Justice, FBI, CIA, and IRS have vastly overstepped their bounds.

Is the southern and northern border crisis a failure on the part of the Biden administration or their direct objective? I opt for the latter. Biden and Harris, in an act of high treason, seek to flood our country with as many illegal aliens as possible. The nine million or so who have crossed already pales in comparison to what the administration would like to encourage, namely 20 to 30 million gate crashers. 

Why? So that these illegals quickly can be enrolled in our voting system in one way or another, scattered among states where Republicans still have a majority. Also, they will be counted by the U.S. Census, to give more congressional seats to Democrats. 

The overarching plan of the Biden/Harris dictatorial regime is to vanquish Republicans at every turn, in every election, now and going forward. Democrats want absolute power like the ominous dictators throughout world history. 

Dictatorship Isn’t Pretty

Democrats do not wish to lose any election forevermore. This is the essence of dictatorship: one party rule. Worse, their desire to squelch any dissent is more evident by the day. Some Democrats in Congress would much like to imprison individuals who cite any voter fraud occurring in the 2020 presidential election. Others would like to jail anyone who speaks out against school boards, transgender policies, or support for Ukraine.

For all four of his years in office, Trump did not engage in behavior even remotely related to the dictatorial policies of the Biden administration. Trump did not jail opponents. He did not persecute and prosecute opponents for political purposes. He did not spy on journalists, U.S. citizens, and foreign dignitaries as Obama did, and as Biden/Harris are doing now, with all of it squelched by the mainstream media.

With pen and paper, and contrary to the Supreme Court ruling, Biden and Harris believe that they can forgive more than half a trillion dollars in student debt. They also believe that they can mandate vaccines, which are increasingly suspect as the number of sudden deaths, seizures, and unexplained physical maladies among the populace is too great to ignore.

Coercion Over the Top

The dictators in Washington coerced online tech giants such as Facebook and Twitter to do their bidding before Elon Musk's purchase and renaming to X. The D.C. dictators, in cahoots with Google, have made it difficult for conservative voices to be heard. The web giants knock people off of internet commentary and shut down their websites with no warning. They insist on bizarre ‘community standards,’ another term for censorship, over the slightest of infractions based on interpretations that invariably benefit Democrats and penalize Republicans.

The dictatorial regime in Washington seeks to pack the Supreme Court so that conservatives never have a majority again, and Biden’s latest quest is to alter Supreme Court operations and thereby diminish the separation of powers.

Other than the opinions of writers from The New York Times, The Washington Post and the usual gang of Leftist zealots, try to find anything that Trump has done that mirrors the Biden administration's dictatorial policies. You can't because Trump was not a dictator and will not be a dictator once re-elected. 

Trump will seek justice for the long-running crimes of Democrats which have gone un-prosecuted. Democrats have gotten away with so much that today they operate with impunity and greatly fear the forthcoming justice once they are not in power. Democrat operatives run roughshod over everyday citizens, bang down the doors of those who they regard as political opponents, and threaten, harass, cancel and intimidate anybody who stands in their way. 

Look No Further

If you want to see a dictatorship in action, and one which grows bolder each day, look to Washington, D.C. The Biden/Harris regime cannot be allowed to continue. It would lead to the end of America as we know it.
