Really Mike? What did I say, you do not think is verifiable accurate. It is not fake, just because you do not like it. Reality is real. Embrace it.Fake news, chinaman.The leaders he admires favor strongman control and he has complimented that they have that kind of control, not possible in Democracies. He Has threatened states with cutting off funds he is not in charge of on things that is not the Federal Government place to dictate. During the riots he wanted to bring in Federal troops but was reminded that the founding fathers were very leery of that happening and very dangerous to states right. Chairman of Joint Chiefs was against it, and the troops were sent back to fort Bragg. He wanted to federalize natational guard, but was told that was the same thing, because once called up on Federal Duty, they are U.S. Army, just like it says on their uniform. He had Homeland defense constitute a force of Federal troops not of the Army, sent them in, not just to protect Federal property, but to actually conduct operation not in the protest or riot, but actually using unidentified/unidentifiable Federal secret police that were filmed snatching people off the street without stating a charge, thrown into an unmarked car and disappeared until they chose to release them. Trump will be a dictator in a heartbeat if allowed. He will not be allowed. To curb illegal immigration of families he ramped up separating children from parents and not only hold longer than was allowed but sometime kids were transport hundreds of miles away. Court had to make him give the back, though he resisted while he could and as far as I know, not all of those kids have yet been reunited. These are what I have observed, reported in the news, on the internet and including right here on this board. Also note, he does not believe the power of the purse strings to be in the hands of Congress, feeling he has authority to sign the budget and appropriations bill and take credit for their pass, but turn around and misdirect those funds he previously approved from what both house of Congress appropriated the money for to his own pet project to suite his political whims and friends, knowing it was illegal, but spending the money before the courts could react. The judge ruled it illegal. The appeals court also ruled it illegal, but the money is gone now isn't. The just had to put more money back it to replace what he stole. Can't impeach again that close to election. The crook with his one man, strongman act got away with it until November Election and January inauguration of Joe Biden.One thing is for certain. Trump favors strong rightist central leadership control, just as the dictators he admires. There is no getting around it. His policies benefit wall street far more than main street. His word is worthless as he has proven he cannot trusted to act in the long term for the American people in keeping with the intentions of the framers of our constitution.People this is classic Dem propaganda. Either Biden and Harris have been lying to placate the left, or they are lying about being moderate. We all know for a fact that Dems always fake a shift to the center in the general election. Otherwise they would lose the election. The question is are these two Dems truly moderates or are they left wing radicals lying and pretending to be moderate to fool the American people into voting for them?
what about trump makes you say that he favors "strong" control?
