As I said last night I think he saw the presidency as his own fiefdom, and didn't realise how much control there would be on him. I think he expected to be able to overrule and control the system in the same way Putin can.
His main aim is personal enrichment. Comparable dictators are not Hitler, Stalin or Mao who had ideological aims albeit warped. Trump's personality is more like Mugabe, Ceaucescu, Ferdinand Marcos or Viktor Yanukovych who all did everything they could to enrich themselves at the expense of the population. As there is a functioning democracy in place in the USA, he'll find it much harder to achieve his goals.

Edited for accuracy.
 
How fucking chuffed is he, LOL. I was watching HardTalk last night, it came to light that the interviewee stood to gain materially from recent appointments and the crush on the EPA. Then it turns out he's linked to the new EPA head....... as soon as his name was mentioned, he couldn't hide that exact same grin. These guys are going to make a killing.
 
President Trump continues to fulfil his campaign promises:

Law and order.


That picture sums up the face of the problems we currently face in America: A far right wing religious zealot, an idiot Billionaire who thinks his money makes him smarter than everyone else in the room, and a southern racist in charge of the law of the land.

They ALL say one thing when the FACTS (even those in the article) say another. Then again, this Administration is working on "alternative facts," so who knows what they think is real anymore?!
 
Nothing mixed mate. I think he wants to be one, demonstrably so. The issue being, nobody should want to be one.
I disagree. I think it's wrong to want to stay a dictator, but taking dictatorial power to get the good done that is needed as long as they planned the pass back to a better democratic system I'm fine with. Of course you wouldn't know the person's true intentions until it's too late.
 
He's a nationalist against globalism, not sure how you've come to that conclusion. He's definitely a blue.
His administration so far has a touch of the Edward Woodwards about it -
"we are making huge profit folks, great profits, no one else has profits as great as ours"
" but what about your increasing debt?"
"That's fake"

He'd fit in there perfectly.
