Democrats keep warning that if Donald Trump gets a second term he will be an authoritarian president. They also claim his first term was authoritarian.
Trump did once attack the Second Amendment by wanting to confiscate Americans' guns before due process. He’s also said during this campaign that he would be a dictator for a day.
Legitimate concerns. But is Trump’s alleged authoritarianism the only kind that should be feared? If a president skirting the law and toppling American democratic norms and standards to carry out his agenda is bad, why do Trump’s critics seem to not mind when Joe Biden does this?
Because that’s definitely happening. Right now.
