BRAD REED 19 MAR 2019 AT 06:41 ET
Trump supporter attending a Steve Bannon-led pro-border wall rally this week wished that President Donald Trump could become a dictator so he could crush Congress and build a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border.
Never in my life did I think Id like to see a dictator, she said. But if theres going to be one, I want it to be Trump!
At this point, Bannon and other people in the room smiled and applauded her.

Perhaps that should be the next project for the authors of "The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump"

We need to frame it exactly thus.
If they want to live under a dictator there are plenty of countries happy to have them. LOVE IT OR GTFO, you treasonous asshats!

(5,810 posts)4. As my husband and I were discussing just today --
These people have been brainwashed by tRump, Limbaugh, Fox, Hannity, Info Wars, etc. They have heard a steady litany that has led them to this place. They knew exactly how to drum the message over and over and like good children, the minions obey. They no longer are able to come up with a reason why a dictator of any kind would NOT be a good thing. Did you hear the anger in her voice? She would walk across hot coals to vote for tRump over and over.
We are up against an army of MAGA indoctrinated fools. We better figure out a way to fight back. Reprogram them. Try to break the spell. Maybe some good psychiatrists who specialize in how to do this can help. But we have our work cut out for us.

And you can go fuck off

(5,810 posts)13. The truly sad thing about all of this is that she in no way sees herself as
Speaking like a traitor. Our founding fathers are spinning in their graves. Dictator, eh? Has she looked at any dictators throughout time? None of them are nice guys and shed not be as safe as she thinks shed be. But she cannot think for herself. She has been programmed.
A massive reprogramming needs to happen ASAP. The ridiculous thing is that when all the nasty truth about tRump comes pouring out, like a boil that has been lanced, these poor lost souls probably still wont believe their hero is the biggest villain this country has ever seen. Let the reprogramming begin!

E Warren, or K Harris, etc.
Of course, Warren and Harris would never become dictators because they love their country.
