That comment, "A Trump dictatorship is increasingly inevitable" is part of the title of an essay in today's Washington Post by Robert Kagan.

It may be behind a paywall. Sorry if you cannot read it. Sorry that every person in the United States does not read it.
Just a few quotes:
“Like people on a riverboat we have long known there is a waterfall ahead but assume we will somehow find our way to shore before we go over the edge. But now the actions required to get us to shore are looking harder and harder, if not downright impossible.”
"If an asteroid were hurtling toward Earth, would we not try everything we could to stop it? Even if those things required sacrifice? Even if they might not work?"
"...we continue to drift toward dictatorship, still hoping for some intervention that will allow us to escape the consequences of our collective cowardice, our complacent, willful ignorance and, above all, our lack of any deep commitment to liberal democracy. As the man said, we are going out not with a bang but a whimper."
For anyone who believes this can't happen, a quick reminder - it almost happened already.
We were one kind of principled VP away from it. One guy.
Is that all you can do? Biden governs like any other president and is no danger to the nation's existence. Trump is unable or uninterested in how it is done. Trump was a terrible president before and he signals that if you think that was bad, you ain't seen nothin' yet. He has far worse plans if he gets back in. Can you try? Your drive by insults are so worthless.

With any luck at all he'll put all you miserable leftist pricks in jail for 22 years.
I don't believe you. The polls are meaningless and until we start seeing some votes roll in we don't even know if Trump will win the nomination much less the presidency. Trumps popularity is dropping every day and with the economy doing fine and expected to do better this next year and Biden being the incumbent it is practically impossible that he will be defeated.
What a dreck of an article that is! So, an op ed piece by radical Leftist Robert Kagen in the Leftist newspaper the WaPo, decries that Trump is likely to win the presidential election in 2024 and that he will be a... wait for it... dictator!
Kagen offers nothing in support of this argument other than vague generalities, argument from repetition, and worst of all, even invokes argumentum ad Hitlerum.
In Weimar Germany, Hitler and other agitators benefited from the squabbling of the democratic parties, right and left, the endless fights over the budget, the logjams in the legislature, the fragile and fractious coalitions.
Trump administration will be filled with people who will not need explicit instruction from Trump, any more than Hitler’s local gauleiters needed instruction. In such circumstances, people “work toward the Führer,”
(from article in OP)
Kagen also invokes comparisons to Caeser taking power in Rome, Napolean in France, hell, even the fictional King Kong isn't left out of this rant. The radical Left is scared that their power will come to an end in 2024 and is pulling out all the stops to try and keep that from happening. The problem is, writers like Kagen have turned to such insane hyperbole that it almost becomes parody rather than serious journalism. No example, claim, comparison is too extreme. Trump must be stopped or the Left is doomed, so the Left tells us. Well, I for one see this as a good thing. Fuck the Left.
Trump said he would purge federal workers he sees as insufficiently loyal to him.
Appoint a prosecutor to go after Biden and his family.
If I see someone on left doing well,I will indict him.
I will purge the deep state as I see it.
I will gut the justice department of non loyalists.
Reuse stop and frisk
I will deploy the national guard to cities as I see needed.
I will move the homeless to inexpensive land staffed by healthcare workers . Move or go to jail.
This is what the Trumpys want.
You mean the end of the Biden dictatorship and a return to the Constitutional Republic is inevitable.
You attempted to overthrow the United States - you have failed in your effort.
Yakuda is a good example of the hate filled rage inspired by Trump.
For anyone who believes this can't happen, a quick reminder - it almost happened already.

Trump has all but promised to be a dictator, you aren't listening. He flat out said he would appoint an attorney general loyal to him that would do his bidding. He would put the military on the streets. He would like to try and execute a couple past generals. That is just the beginning and all dictators start out sounding like they may not be but not this asshole. You are just too fucking stupid to see it coming, just like a good Nazi.
No, but you are, and so is your Emperor Xi - whom Quid Pro Biden is a vassal of.
What a fucking dumbshit.
This site really needs to have ignorant shitheads like you removed. You really bring the entire site down with your fucking stupid posts.
He is a lying and ignorant dumbshit
