    I honestly don’t think Trump is a dictator, he’s too self serving and too old.

    Musk though… He’s full of himself, yeah, but more ideologically driven. I’m way more worried about him.

      Yeah exactly, he infiltrated maga’s nationalism to implement his own neoliberal ideas.

      Now there is a clash, and usually in America the one doing the bribing gets their way.

        To add, I think he’s in probably one of the best places to enact his nonsense. Direct line to trump with virtually no accountability. If he sticks around it’ll be incredibly dangerous regardless.

      Why would being self serving and old disqualify him from being a dictator?

      He’s behavior so far seems consistent with dictatorship. Disregarding laws, undermining democracy, promising protection for those who fall in line and retribution for those who don’t, surrounding himself with yes-men… and I could go on for a while
