Trump is trying very hard to emulate every 20th / 21st century dictator.

Self-awareness is not one of his strengths.

Comparatively, his costumes suck.

At least he is not trying to sneak Totalitarianism in through the backdoor…

He’s too busy reading his “favorite book”, the Bible. He’s up to “two Corinthians”.

Loosing it . . . not that he ever had “it”.

If this were any other president, I’d be genuinely worried. But he isn’t. He’s the 300 pound loser tweeting from his mother’s basement drinking a two liter of Mountain Dew while hate tweeting about “libtards” and “snowflakes”. He’d be tweeting these mindless threats even if he’d lost the election. But he’ll be onto something else in a few minutes.

Trump is trying, but not in that sense of the word. Say bad thing about me, therefore you are bad. There’s no conscious emulation there.

I suspect he thinks Mussolini is a fancy brand of automobile, Pol Pot a very, very (bigly huge!) tasty dish that Chris Christie delivers to him from the Panda Express in Trump Tower.

There was a time when “conservatives” woulda been outraged at such a threat by a President.

But wait, what does the GOP congress say about this? Surely they are now “Extremely Concerned.”

Perhaps when the Trump Administration demands martial law, they may even become “Double Extremely Concerned!”

Trump is so stupid he actually believes that the network has a broadcast license.

The licenses are for individual broadcast stations only—and do not apply to any cable networks.

If anyone’s licenses need to be reviewed, it would be the stations owned by Sinclair.

I can see it now: Trump holding up the little binder showing the executive order rescinding NBC’s license with his big signature.

Does he really think he can do this?

​If you wonder what Fascism looks like in practice, this is Fascism.

Fascism:A governmental system led by a strong leader demanding complete power, forcibly suppressing opposition and criticism, regimenting all industry, commerce, etc., and emphasizing an aggressive nationalism and often racism. # NeverHillary

Yes, he does.

Despite the fact that there is no such license.
