> You should really read the book

Why would you assume I haven't read it?

Any reason I should reread a book that was published some 36 years after I studied politics in university ?

Again, Trump literally said that he woud only be a dictator for a day .. which I personally think sums him up beautifully and encapsulates just about everything you need to know about the man; starting with an over inflated sense of time management.

I blame the US system TBH, it was a shining star 300 years ago but heed was not given to Franklin's advice on tending it with care and avoiding despots.

Maybe it's because I'm from a politic system penned by grandparents who looked at the flaws (as they saw them) of both Washington and Westminster and created a Washminster hybrid (still flawed, but fresher and so far better tended).



How does it work to be a dictator for only a day? Are you ok with that like if kamala harris could be a dictator for a day if the democrats win?
