Trump Believes That He is a Dictator

Saturday’s operation in Caracas has been described by some as a violation of international law, but in his conversation with the Times, Trump said, “I don’t need international law.”

When asked if there were any limits on his powers on the world stage, Trump said: “Yeah, there is one thing. My own morality. My own mind.”

Anyone who has watched him over the last several decades knows this to be true: Trump has no sense of morality. He is a predator who has only previously been lightly constrained by the law. But with complete immunity both at home (thanks to his pet Supreme Court) and internationally, Trump can do what he wants. He is accountable to nobody.

Which is clearly what the Founders did not have in mind.

If you voted for him, this is on you and will always be on you.

  1. If you voted for him, or for a unicorn candidate, or chose not to vote at all, this is on you.

    "Trump Believes That He Is A Dictator"

    Well, he's pretty much always been the first syllable.

    Though not much of one, according to Stormy.

  2. Felon47 said: "My own morality. My own mind." He has shown he has neither.
    I'm sure there is a long list of historically bad people that have said same.

  3. Am I wrong to think Donny's not so Supreme Court given immunity, won't hold up to the International Court rulings? I would love for him to visit the Hague as a subject of the court.

  4. Trump has always viewed obeying laws as, at best, optional.
