Let Trump Be Dictator for a Day, 74 Percent of Republicans Say - eviltoast

New poll reveals Republicans are authoritarian curious, while Americans are starkly divided on Trump’s 2020 guilt

The Joe Biden presidential campaign is positioning the 2024 election as a referendum on democracy. But a new poll suggests that defending America’s constitutional system of checks and balances is no longer an electoral slam dunk.

A startling 39 percent of Americans, including 74 percent of Republicans, think it’s a decent idea for Donald Trump to act as a dictator for a day to begin his prospective second term, according to a University of Massachusetts Amherst survey released Wednesday.

    As dictator for 1 day, my first act is to change all historical documents and records to show that I stated I would be dictator forever and that 100% of Americans support this.

    Oh also if anyone protests or says they don’t support this it’s treason and they will be sentenced to death.

      I think that if he gets voted in then that’s what should happen. It is as advertised.

      I hope he doesn’t, but if he does nobody will be surprised. Good luck America!
