Trump is setting up his dictatorship.
He has control of the GOP congress.
And the courts.

(82,344 posts)He admires dictators, meets with them, is being instructed about how to gain control of the US government.
It is astounding.

(82,344 posts)Dictators also align with the oligarchs and use their money to be installed into power.
Of course once installed the dictator lowers the boom on the oligarchs.

(72,531 posts)... Remember when people said that Ivanka would be a moderating influence on the beast?
I grasped onto that false hope of a straw for a couple of days myself.

(258,842 posts)So she's no "moderating" influence. If she was - if anyone was - they'd be out on their ear. We saw how he feels about Haley voters or anyone who refuses to take orders and pledge fidelity to him.

(72,531 posts)During Donald Trump's 2016 presidential campaign, she spearheaded the TrumpPence Women's Empowerment Tour and served as the Trump Tower liaison for Brad Parscale's Giles-Parscale company.[10][11][12] After her father-in-law was elected president, she became an online producer and fundraiser for him.[5][6][13]
In April 2019, she described German chancellor Angela Merkel's decision to accept refugees during the European migrant crisis of 2015 as "the downfall of Germany; it was one of the worst things that ever happened to Germany."[14][15]
She was a senior consultant to Parscale for Trump's reelection campaign in 2020.[11][16] The campaign paid her $180,000 a year through Parscale's private company, Parscale Strategy. Lara Trump was a surrogate on the stump and took on broad advisory roles.[17][18] She also campaigned with far-right activist and conspiracy theorist Laura Loomer.[19][20]
She was among the speakers at the "Save America" rally that preceded the January 6 United States Capitol attack alongside Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr..[21]

(258,842 posts)If they can't pass a security clearance they become "acting." The only qualifications that matter to him are "loyalty." He makes the decisions and they are there to "take orders."

(72,531 posts)She says she's not a good singer. After you listen you will not argue with her about that.
The biggest thing she ever did in life was marry "the dumb one". And Eric's the only one with a degree. From "Wharton". But not "That Wharton".
