Trump's Autocratic Ambitions Terrify America

Speculation about the possibility of a second Donald Trump presidency turning into a dictatorship has sparked concern in America. Major US media outlets, including The Washington Post, The New York Times, and The Atlantic, have published dystopian warnings about the potential consequences if Trump were to win in 2024. Liz Cheney, a prominent Republican critic of Trump, has expressed fears of the country "sleepwalking into dictatorship" and is considering a third-party presidential run to prevent it. These warnings paint a picture of a more disciplined and vengeful Trump who may seek to stay in power beyond the two-term limit. Trump has dismissed these concerns, while President Joe Biden sees them as validation of his defense of democracy. Critics argue that Trump's autocratic tendencies have long been evident, and he currently faces trial for conspiring to overturn the 2020 election result.
