The Trump "Dictatorship." my honest thoughts.

hey everyone me Kevin here yesterday I

quoted folks saying that some people

think Donald Trump is a dictator and I

think either people who were half

listening fortunately it's a very small

percentage of folks some people who just

can't afford to even remotely pay

attention apparently thought that I was

calling Donald Trump a dictator and they

misunderstood that I was quoting another

group of folks and so what I thought I

would do is just make a very clear video

uh and we're just going to call it a

mess Mage to everyone worried about

Donald Trump being a dictator see

Democrats are worried that Donald Trump

is going to remain in power forever and

that he's going to be an evil dictator

that he's got all the control in the

world and and therefore you're basically

screwed you've got dictator Trump and

that's it so what I thought I would do

is start with a quick personal message

sort of on where my POV is coming from

and then we're going to talk about what

is a dictator and then how does that

fit into what actually is happening in

America I think this is very useful so

the quick personal note is this uh and

and this is just a note to my audience I

personally consider myself liberally uh

socially liberal uh and fiscally

conservative you know a lot of people

have used that phraseology before this

is not very much of a surprise but in

English basically I want a balanced

budget I don't want crime I want

politicians to stop spending money they

don't have I care about about good

schools and I really don't care whom you

marry you want to marry him or her it

doesn't make a difference to me I just

want strong law enforcement I hate

seeing homeless people die in the

streets or shoot up in front of kids I

also don't like endless proxy wars with

the government in locked Martin's pocket

and no desire to negotiate I don't like

high taxes understand the need for some

taxes but not excessive taxes and

honestly I I mean you know I I

personally don't think any of what I

said here is really that unusual and if

it pisses you off sorry about that I

have four daughters and three sons and

the reality is I don't want boys playing

in girls Sports I don't like lawsuits

for the sake of stopping businesses or

innovation or crypto and as a data seven

I acknowledged that Donald Trump pulled

major votes from categories he wasn't

expecting to he convinced 55% of Latino

men to vote for him that's a huge number

he convinced 46% of all Latinos to vote

for him he convinced more white people

than we've seen since 1992 my birth here

to vote for him now that's actually

extremely odd because

usually you see less white folks vote in

every single election just because of

demographic changes so how all of a

sudden did this go up for the first time

since

1992 well Donald Trump convinced people

to vote for him it's that simple that's

how it worked so then you have to ask

yourself okay well obviously a lot of

people in America resonate with what

Donald Trump says and maybe there is

something to it uh and so in in this

video we're going to again break down uh

this idea of is Donald Trump a dictator

now also keep in mind this and some of

these statistical differences here I

think are pretty remarkable but consider

this for a moment women chose Joe Biden

by a 15 spread in

2020 this year that dropped to just

eight which is almost half it's pretty

bad it's a bad spread for for Harris

Harris lost white Suburban women by

seven points this is like a cannot lose

demographic and she lost it and the

reality is 67% of you are frustrated

about economy and War and you probably

ought to be you probably should be you

should be frustrated that the economy

isn't as great as the data is telling us

there are real concerns about a

joblessness recession and then frankly

robots will take over it's kind of scary

because it's going to push a lot of

people on universal basic income and

joblessness so now let's get to the

topic at hand which is the dictator

topic because all of what I just gave

you is just a little bit of background

on where my POV is coming from just so

you can understand where my frame of

reference is uh and then also a

realization that Donald Trump one people

that should have been unwinable for him

and that should give us a little bit or

at least give him a little bit of Street

cried that there are more people who

believe him now than than when he was

running against

Biden so that would indicate that less

people think he's going to be a bad

dictator maybe some people think he'll

be a good dictator but then the reality

we have to think of is is he going to be

a dictator at all I mean Caesar was a

dictator there are good dictators and

bad dictators I'm not saying he was good

but there were a lot of bad ones on the

list too Stalin Hitler melini there are

plenty of dictators and Ma dong people

have opinions on both sides of the aisle

for him Kim Jong-un Gaddafi Saddam

Hussein these are these are historical

dictators and the one thing that you

find with historical dictators that

makes someone actually a dictator is

that they have

absolutely

unchecked power now some people say that

Donald Trump has that they say he has

unchecked power oh got Congress they say

he's got the house he's got the Senate

he's he's got the Supreme Court in his

back pocket cuz they sent roie wade back

to the States folks r v Wade is not in

the Constitution like yes I now I

understand Donald Trump enabled them

sort of checking that out again I get

that but In

fairness States not delegate or rights

not delegated to the federal government

or explicitly reserved for the states so

now I'm not saying I'm taking a side on

this position I'm just saying when I

look at the argument the Supreme Court

made I do think there's logic uh but you

know and we'll

see so uh when folks say Donald Trump

has all of these different branches then

the question becomes okay so does he

have unchecked power we'll think about

this for a moment Senator Rick Scott a

republican is from the same party as

Donald Trump he thinks that Donald Trump

needs 60 votes to Institute uh uh

tariffs uh and that a budget

reconciliation measure for tariffs won't

cut it or that executive orders for

tariffs won't cut it well this would put

a big Thorn sort of in the Donald Trump

plan to Institute massive tariffs on

China without the support of Congress

which once again goes back to the idea

of okay we need the entire party to be

un united it's not just enough to say

you have control that doesn't mean you

have everybody on the same wavelength of

you if uh you know we've got uh let's

see what what does America have right

now I think

Senate uh election results I think

there's a two lead for Republicans three

lead so you're at 53 on the Republican

side right now for Senate 46 Dem so

Republicans they could probably afford

to lose

three uh Republican votes because then

the VP JD Vance could tie break but if

you lose any more than three you're

screwed

if you lose any more than 13 in the

house you're screwed and people like oh

but they're not going to lose they not

going to lose them well we'll think

about this for a moment just to give you

an understanding a little bit more of of

how the House of Representatives works

for example the House of Representatives

has uh a division or I should call it a

caucus really it's just a group of reps

uh and it's called the house Freedom

caucus it is a 38 seat group that

frequently votes together they are also

very

much fiscal

Hawks if they think Donald Trump is

potentially spending too much money or

driving the United States into debt and

they vote no this dictatorship is over

with the power of just one group within

the Republican

Party even Donald Trump's favored

secretary uh or treasury secretary pick

right now is starting to question the

fiscal responsibility of saying no

social security taxes or taxes on Social

Security income and so instead he's

suggesting hey maybe we could do like an

income approach where like you know or

an age approach where hey if you're 80

you don't pay taxes on Social Security

I'm just making that up right he hasn't

given exact sort of ladders yet uh but

presumably like maybe you pay the normal

tax when you first retire but then as

you get older you pay less and less tax

over time that's just an idea uh that he

suggested not saying that's what's going

to happen but it shows you that you've

got some resistance here to uncheck

power even with within the party JD

Vance is considered a fiscal Hawk the

legal system is not just the Supreme

Court either I mean you've got thousands

of Judges at local levels State levels

federal district levels uh and you know

appell at courts there there are a lot

of Judges here that are not all going to

be on the same point of view of trump

and it's not just that it's that

lawsuits can lead to stays which pause

the activities of of uh government

officials uh law can lead to frankly

losses I mean Democrats had wins in like

83% of the cases they brought against

Trump the first time he was president

that mean those were all little forms of

checks on his power you know de I'm not

saying I'm a big fan of people like

suing everybody to try to get things

done uh that they think are important to

them but that's very common so it's very

difficult to actually be a dictator in

the United States even if you have all

sort of quote unquote control of

Congress or potentially even the Supreme

Court uh it's still challenging to

actually have true control uh and that's

some that puts you in a position where

you're like okay so maybe it's going to

be a little bit more challenging to be a

fullon dictator now while Donald Trump

is unpredictable I want to be clear

about my opinion I don't believe that

Donald Trump is

unamerican that includes Democrats now

of course he could be a little bit of a

loose cannon but I don't think he's

trying to destroy America and generally

I don't think any president is trying to

do that like somewhere deep down inside

once Biden walks through the sand like I

think there's some heart in there uh and

I generally think that is true of most

politicians uh that there's some heart

deep down inside you just have to get

through like multiple multiple layers of

financial interests and lobbyism

and uh you know other incentives that

probably shouldn't exist but do which

that's just sort of the nature of the

game of politics and that doesn't mean I

support it but it also doesn't mean that

I'm losing sleep over the fact that

Donald Trump is president now uh and uh

you know if I were a Democrat I I really

I'm not saying don't vote don't let your

voice be heard

but I I don't know that arguing Donald

Trump is going to be a pure dictator is

is the right thing to say here I I don't

think it's possible and I don't think he

is obviously he's going to try to do

what he thinks is best whether that's

you know from the deportation uh POV or

uh from the um uh you know tariff point

of view although a lot of that could be

negotiation tactics uh even with Mexico

I mean we already know these are

potentially negotiation tactics with

China but also consider that with Mexico

if you say hey you're going to send

everybody back Mexico is going to or

even even other countries in South

America since it's not all just Mexico

even China you know you a lot of Chinese

are coming through the southern

border uh in fact there's some of them

outside of South America they're like I

think the most popular immigrant coming

through and flooding through the

southern border and so even saying

you're just going to send everybody back

is a way to potentially negotiate with

China uh and negotiate American

interests with these other

countries so that's important as well

and remember you it's even when it comes

to appointees they have to be confirmed

by Congress this is important as well uh

uh you know Powell's going to fight

getting fired and fight political

interference even though Viv and musk

and Trump have all pushed for

interference with the Federal Reserve uh

and you know then then there are these

concerns that well Donald Trump is

basically going to always be in power

because one of his sons or JD Vance or

somebody else will be in power and In

fairness I was on a run the other day

and I saw somebody running walking

around an elderly white gentleman with

with with a a hat on it was not a magga

hat but it was a hat uh and he had a

Vance 2028 shirt on

I mean that's cool it's uh you know for

him it's it's sort of a way of

expressing that he's very happy with the

result of the election and I'm happy on

his behalf that you know he's happy uh

but look a lot of things are beyond the

control of what's going to happen in

2028 if Donald Trump you know for no

fault of his own certainly not over the

last four years because he's not in

office uh may be some residual from his

prior term but if we walk into a

recession that's not going to be his

fault day one at least certainly not

unfold it could just be sort of the

economic nature of a postco recession uh

and uh and if the recession's bad and

it's a jobless recession it's really

really bad people are going to blame

Trump they're going to label him

recession Trump you know oh recession

during Co recession right when he opens

the door to the White House again even

if it's not his fault he's going to be

stuck with that burden and that could

make you lose power right away in the

midterms and make you lose power in 2028

so maybe I just have too much faith that

the the voters in Mass are trying to do

their best to as Kevin o says correct

the political atmosphere and the

direction of the country and I think the

voting electorate as a whole is is kind

of quick to Pivot like ooh didn't like

the economy the last four years okay

we're going to Pivot to Trump in numbers

we've never seen before for a Republican

and numbers going up for white voters

that hasn't been seen since 1992 despite

demographic changes oh okay uh then then

you pivot over and you're like okay okay

so what about uh you know oh okay is he

is he a dictator well well let's see

what happens the first two years I mean

if it's anything like the first term

it's going to take time to actually do

anything see that's something I else

that I think a lot of folks forget and

if you go back to the stimulus days

after the first sort of emergency stimy

package it took forever to get

legislation done and the same frankly is

just going to be true of probably every

single cycle going forward where even

though they want to do a tax plan they

want to do crypto regulation or whatever

it's just going to take months to write

the legislation then negotiate the

legislation everybody's going to want

their add-ins so when when you add this

together the checks on a dictator's

power here are other courts other

lawsuits uh caucuses groups within

Congress delays from the time it takes

to actually put legislation together

this is all hard work so our government

just by Nature by by virtue of what the

founding fathers wanted moves very

slowly it actually makes it very

difficult for somebody to be a dictator

just by virtue of how our government is

established so that's my take you know

who knows uh maybe uh maybe I'm out of

line here I'm sure you'll let me know in

the comments but I look forward to

seeing what you all have to say anyway
