A fellow member of our board called Trump a "tin pot dictator"

If all he inspired to be was a "tin pot dictator" in the vein of Fulgencio Batista, Rafael Trujillo, Ferdinand Marcos, Anastasio Somoza Debayle, and Reza Pahlavi, etc. that would be the least of our problems.

His goals are much greater. I'm thinking Adolf Hitler.

I see. if tRump is allowed to stay at the helm for 4, heaven forbid 8 years, a first time in recorded history a reduction in human/creature inhabitants on this globe

This will not end well, unless of course you're a rich fascist bastid/biotch.
My apologies if I hurt anyones sensibilities with my crude phrasing.

Peace
