The two things you cited are not mutually exclusive

GS and wdmso, since you both dodged, i’ll ask again...
how can you accuse trump of going too far with federal deregulation, and also accuse him of being a dictator? how does that make any sense whatsoever?
answer - orangemanbad. whatever it takes, no matter how absurd you need to sound, orange man must be bad. always, no exceptions.
a dictator who also wants the federal control to be too small. so you’re saying he’s a libertarian and a dictator. at the same time.
that’s wicked smaht.

What’s not wicked smart
Is thinking deregulation has anything to do with Trump secret desires to be a strong authoritarian leader willing to steal what he can’t win , frustrated by the checks and balances built into our system
Ps your deregulation comment is based on the rights pre occupation with socialism,, Ps no one is claiming Trump want to be a socialist, except when it comes to farmer’s
And yes Orangeman is bad regardless of what good you think he has done , because his current attacks on our Democratic process clearly show how un American he is and the willingness of his supporters to love the man more than the country, he has convinced them their at war

Every dictator destroys the mechanisms of government so he can put it under his personal control.
Talk radio personalities and the Fox primetime hosts have only one primary function now: Keep Trump’s GOP alive, no matter what. They feed themselves and feed the political machine at once. And, without them, the GOP in its current form will wither and die.
The propaganda is the party and the party is propaganda. Sink or be a lamprey

The 2000 election was decided by 537 votes in one state, Florida. With Florida in Bush's column, the outcome of the Electoral College was 271-266 — about as close as it gets. In fact, it was the closest electoral vote margin since 1876 that saw Rutherford B. Hayes beat Samuel Tilden by just one electoral vote, 185-184.
In the 2020 election, if Biden's leads hold, he is on track to win 306 electoral votes to 232 for Trump. (Somewhat ironically, that's the same margin Trump would have won by in 2016 if there weren't two faithless electors who brought his total down to 304.)
As opposed to focusing attention on a single state, Trump has several lawsuits in courts in multiple states, many of which have already been thrown out. There will be a recount in Georgia, and Trump is seeking one in Wisconsin, which the AP called for Biden, but he's unlikely to win either one because he is down almost 35,000 votes between the two states.
A FairVote study of 27 recounts between 2000 and 2015 found the average vote change in them was 282 votes — nowhere near the gap Trump is trying to overcome.
The president's allegations and conspiracy theories of sweeping voter fraud have so far been without merit. Fraud is hard to pull off in modern elections because of the safeguards in place, including electronic voter registration records, signature matching technology and post-election audits of the vote.
"I think it is more difficult now," Ginsberg said, noting, "The Trump campaign is basing all its actions on the thought that there was fraud, and now they're not able to prove it, so their basic premise is not holding up."
On Thursday, the government agencies overseeing the security of the election issued a joint statement defending the integrity of the election and calling it the "most secure in American history."
"There is no evidence that any voting system deleted or lost votes, changed votes, or was in any way compromised," they wrote. They added, "While we know there are many unfounded claims and opportunities for misinformation about the process of our elections, we can assure you we have the utmost confidence in the security and integrity of our elections, and you should too."
Now do but the Kraken...............

Trump tweet. Why won’t Governor @BrianKempGA, the hapless Governor of Georgia, use his emergency powers, which can be easily done, to overrule his obstinate Secretary of State, and do a match of signatures on envelopes. It will be a “goldmine” of fraud, and we will easily WIN the state....
...
1 he doesn’t have emergency powers to do Trumps bidding to it’s not legal
Yep Trumps a law and order President lol

When Bill Barr says it's over I guess it's official, but you know Trump isn't going to let it go.

The Emperor was down to nothing but thong and Barr just whipped it off.
(Apologies for that mental image.)

Well that pardon came with terms of course, it’s unbelievable the extremes Trump and his supporters are willing to do to hold on to power. Covid running rampant, the CDC suggesting we could reach 400,000 dead by February and all Trump and his minions talk about is non existent wide spread voter fraud. It’s actually a bit scary to watch what this nut is going to do in his final days. Trump has shown his true colors throughout his four years, but never any clearer than now. |

At last, some systematic voter fraud
“If that means changing your address for the next two months,so be it.I’m doing that. I’m moving to Georgia.”Our 6 investigation reveals deleted video-a FL attorney telling GOP members how to move to GA,vote in runoffs. It’s illegal.There’s more and an investigation.
