I think it elections that Donald wants to do away with.
I haven't found proof that he has a plan to eliminate elections
entirely. What is clear: he has stated he wants major changes
to how elections are run (for example, new citizenship proof
requirements, ending mail-in ballots, tighter controls).
My understanding is that he doesnƒ€™t want to be a literal king - and
the Constitution wouldn't allow that even if he did. The presidency
has limits, checks, and a built-in end date no matter who sits
in the chair.
Regarding the 'dictator' comments: he joked early on about making
big changes "like a dictator" on day one - which is something
every modern president does with executive orders. That doesn't
mean he intended to be a dictator, any more than any other
president using executive authority.

The fact that he didn't respect the 2020 election results
nobody with a brain could respect those results. elections
were rampant with fraud.

Nobody with a brain would ever believe that Biden got 81 million
votes...
When you snuck out of the Politics echo with your tail between your legs, I had hoped that you were seeking help for your TDS.
But I see that's not the case.

No one "sneaks" out of that echo. They just get tired of having
the same old pedophile-defending talking points shouted at them

I find it a little ironic that republicans accuse democrats of repeating whatever they hear on TV (the public media), but I also hear republicans often saying a lot of the same stuff too, like they're repeating what they hear other people say. It's the same behavior; both republicans and democrats are in their own echo chambers.

they're still talking about joe biden? i thought he wasn't president anymore! ---
Yep! And Obama! and Clinton! Anything to try and get the
conversation away from the sex pest, convicted felon and adjucated
rapist that currently occupies the Oval Office, Donald Trump.

True, but if Congress and the courts won't challenge the
Constitutionality of unconstitutional actions, they can sort of do whatever they want.
Now, believing that Trump 2 is the first one who
has had things go in his favor in this regard is very naive.

I think if you look into that, the last 2 or 3 Presidents have been
much worse -- far beyond the point of abuse -- than most others when it comes to "day one" executive orders.

oh you actually believe that rape thing?
the ejean carroll screwball? come on man!
those convictions were bullshit and harmful to the american people. they put so much leglistation off just so they could go after trump for years. They were literally not doing their jobs all those years.
Doesn't matter what your opinion is.
Trump is a convicted felon, and a judgement was rendered against
him in a civil trial, where he was found liable for sexual assault.
Juries and judges all ruled against him. It continues now, where
he or his justice department throw out lawsuits willy-nilly
Trump is a loser.

Executive orders are like a CEO making changes that don't require
board apporoval - and your'e right, there have been a lot of 'day one' things done. And I think it will continue.
one' things done. And I think it will continue.
Yeah, IMHO, the executive order is not inherently a bad thing if it
is used correctly. It should be used as a stop-gap measure,
until Congress can pass a law, or in emergencies only. With recent Presidents, it is becoming more a way to create "law" without
going through the proper channels, and hoping that Congress and the
courts don't question it.

These are strange times. Barack Obama averaged 35 orders per year
egislation that Obama passed. Biden averaged 41 per year , again,
undoing some of Trump's attempts to circumvent laws passed under
Obama. On Trump's second term, Trump has signed 217 orders, with an
obedient majority in the house and senate.
