TL;DR Summary

During a town hall in Iowa, former President Donald Trump refused to rule out abusing power if reelected, referring to himself as a "dictator" but only on "Day One." Trump dodged questions about using the government for retribution, instead deflecting criticism towards the current administration. Meanwhile, President Joe Biden is highlighting the threat Trump poses to democracy in his campaign message. Special counsel Jack Smith plans to use Trump's own words to argue that he is responsible for the violence on Jan. 6, claiming that the rioters were doing what Trump intended. Trump has pleaded not guilty to all charges.
