1. Did Ari actually say "very close"??

If I'd heard that I would have yelled at him about how wrong his take on it is.

2. It's a half assed autocracy as expected. Like everything

That stupid bastard does..it's being propped up by his half asses employees in the congress.

As expected.

3. It's a dictatorship right now.

It can still get much worse, but it’s time everyone started referring to him as the American dictator because that is exactly what he is.
