Trump the Dictator? Never was, never will be Caesar or Brutus. He’s Cincinnatus.
December 9, 2023–Of all the epithets used to describe our favorite president, Donald J. Trump, Trump the Dictator, is simultaneously the most farcical and the most odious.
We could prove beyond a shadow of doubt Trump is the exact opposite, but no court would hear the case.
Donald Trump has been called Hitler, a Nazi, a Fascist, a Dictator, and other vile slurs in earnest for eight straight years since he came down that golden escalator at Trump Tower in 2015. The other day Democrat partisan attack dog and former Clinton insider, James Carville, said on the Bill Maher show that Donald Trump is more dangerous than al Qaeda.
Vanity Fair, however, was likely the progenitor of these Nazi smears against Trump and first wife, Ivana. In it’s 1990 article, “After the Gold Rush” when Trump, the kid from Queens, was coming to prominence as a ‘brash’ real estate developer in Manhattan, Marie Brenner made outrageous claims that Trump had signed for ‘Nazi materials’ at his office, kept a copy of Mein Kampf on his bed table, and insisted employees snap their heels and salute him in German military style. (Covered extensively in this book. Shameless plug.)
Enter Michael Cohen, who lied about Trump before Congress over the Stormy Daniels NDA and went to prison for it, saying on MSNBC this week, “He wants to be a King on day one, a Fuhrer…he will make everyone raise their hands and salute him.” How many stabs in the back is that now Mr. Cohen? Clip here.
Cohen worked for Trump back then. Why doesn’t he ever mention Trump insisted he snap his heels as claimed? and if true, why did he continue to work for him for decades?
We’re not exactly shocked by this fresh round of attacks, but it has to be understood in the present context. Trump is not that kid from Queens shaking up Manhattan real estate, he’s a former president and the leader of a growing populist nationalist voter base known as the MAGA or America First movement.
Trump boldly predicted he could get up to 150 million votes in 2024; twice his 2020 tally. Trump tells people at every campaign event to ‘swamp the system with votes.’ The implication is that the winning margin has to be so big, it compensates for election shenanigans. Maybe this is why they are yet again in a tizzy.
Trump Looms Large!
Trump’s America First platform is the polar opposite of dictatorial. On the grounds that his enemies are taking away his freedom of speech alone – which we’ve seen whether in a gag order issued by a Manhattan judge or CEOs kicking him off social media – Trump is fighting to restore our free speech and all of our Constitutional rights which are jeopardized by Cadaver-in-Chief regime.
Trump must be seen right now as a dictator because it is the predicate for the latest narrative cooked up by the state-runs and uniparty political bigs which implies that since he is without any doubt a dictator, they have the duty, the moral obligation to ‘remove’ or ‘eliminate’ him before the election to — wait for it — save democracy!
This is the premise of this week’s Washington Post opinion piece, “A Trump dictatorship is increasingly inevitable. Let’s stop pretending.” by Robert Kagan, who interestingly is married to Under Secretary of State, Victoria Nuland. By the way, Nuland is the veteran color revolution specialist primarily responsible for the 2014 Maidan Revolution in Ukraine which gave us Vladimyr Zelenskyy. (Scroll down for more.)
Trump looms large like a giant Macy’s Thanksgiving Day balloon menacingly hovering outside their windows. In the hive mind of the left, Trump represents an insidious evil, a pox on humanity that must be dealt with as if a Code Red national security threat. The powers that be don’t have to prove their allegations.
This time, the 45th President of the United States, is an even bigger threat to their political power because if elected he would be a lame duck who might seek revenge on his political enemies. The forces arrayed against him know their crimes. They know they are projecting what they have done onto him.
Every TDS-infested precinct in the land is spewing the vile accusation that Trump will govern in his second term as a dictator because he might finally come after them for their crimes.
So far their Machiavellian plots have failed and it’s driving them crazy.
Liz Cheney is preposterously saying – while promoting her hate Trump book – that the Republican party has been co-opted by Donald Trump (if only that were true!), and that she is willing to step up as a third-party ‘true conservative’ candidate (no third party candidate has ever won or ever will) to ‘save the country from Donald Trump who must be stopped’ OR…she’s quick to add:
“I could join the No Labels ticket with Joe Manchin…” who is a Democrat Senator, retiring his seat from WVA and at 76 is another oldie. No one really knows what Joe Manchin stands for but we are pretty sure he is NOT a true conservative.
The difference in these attacks is that it is now okay to talk about the possibility that the deep state might ‘remove’ Trump. The ‘A-word’ was verboten. Until now. Matt Gaetz was quick to say it on X. (See below.)
It brings back the ugly assassination porn we saw early in Trump’s political ascendancy that folks on the left got away with. To wit Kathy Griffith’s bloody severed Trump head that she called comedy, rapper Snoop Dog’s literal Trump assassination video, and the Shakespeare-in-the-Park enactment of “Julius Caesar” with a Trump lookalike as Caesar stabbed on stage to name a few are toxic memes that entered the political bloodstream.
WaPo Launches a New and Improved ‘Trump is a Dictator’ Salvo
The Washington Post lit the fuse in this week’s Get Trump! narrative with these gems:
The above is just a taste. The vitriol gets worse by the end… Here’s the link to the WaPo article again: https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2023/11/30/trump-dictator-2024-election-robert-kagan/
The great Republican Congressman from Florida, Matt Gaetz, instantly called out the WaPo hit piece on X saying the article ‘greenlights assassination.’
What Bannon Says
No one defends Donald Trump against the charges of dictator better than Steve Bannon. On War Room (12/6) Bannon and Darren Beatty (Revolver) quickly called out the how’s and why’s of this latest attack.
Bannon’s plaint is that comparing the story Shakespeare told in his play, “Julius Caesar” does not align with the facts of Trump’s governance. It’s easy to cast him in the role of Caesar – something Bannon now calls Caesarism – because of Brutus, who betrays him in an assassination. It is not enough for the Media Mafia to feast on metaphorical assassination. With the emergence of ‘Caesarism’ we have the ‘predicate for taking him out’ says Bannon.
Every day Bannon exhorts us – comes in hot as he puts it – to see Trump, as another Roman leader, Cincinnatus, who saved Rome – even though he held the title dictator when he re-took Rome from invaders. He returned to his farm once the job was finished. Nice summary here:
The sideshow in this was Trump’s appearance with Sean Hannity of Fox at a Town Hall in Iowa.
Bannon is flabbergasted that Sean Hannity doesn’t realize that Trump was ‘heckling’ him with his quick answer when he asked him the ‘dumb question’:
“Will you be a dictator?” “No. I’ll be a dictator on day one. I’ll close the border and drill, drill, drill. On day two I won’t be a dictator,” he quipped.
The internet exploded with fake news headlines each claiming Trump said I will be a dictator! We all know Trump landed that barb intentionally.

There’s a Dictator in the White House! Trump Fires Back!!
Team Trump issued this simple rebuttal to ‘dictator-gate’. If only the uniparty cabal would fix their problem with projection…
Here’s the link to the full email: https://maga.nucleusemail.com/amplify/v/xUZq9W3eYZ?hids=%recipient.hids%&utm_medium=email&utm_source=ncl_amplify&utm_campaign=231206-theres_a_dictator_in_the_white_house&utm_content=ncl-c2Qq6gVhZq&_nlid=c2Qq6gVhZq&_nhids=%recipient.hids%
Despite their best efforts to destroy him, Trump has survived:
- Two illegit impeachments
- The Mueller investigation over Russia, Russia, Russia!
- The China-sponsored Wuhan pandemic
- The 2020 stolen election
- De-platforming/censorship on social media
- And, a stymied IPO of his Truth Social platform.
This year he is battling a clutch of Soviet-style show trials, the so-called ‘lawfare’ designed to land him in jail with sentences up to 700 years if convicted of all charges across four indictments, plus as mentioned the seizure of his properties with a hefty fine levied of up to $250 million.
For good measure, various third-parties – bad actors all – have mounted legal attacks to remove his name from the ballot in many states.
. He has beaten back the first challenges coming from Colorado and Michigan, but there will be more.
Rather than merely surviving these challenges – the real dictatorial moves, it seems to fuel Trump to greater heights. He appears more energetic and determined than ever to win back the White House as he keeps up a brutal campaign schedule made more challenging by court appearances.
