I'm a dictator...Sometimes you need one - he said it [View all]

At the 2026 World Economic Forum in Davos, President Donald Trump reflected on his leadership style, stating, “I’m a dictator… but sometimes you need a dictator.” He emphasized that his decisions are guided by common sense rather than political ideology, claiming 95% of his approach is rooted in pragmatism.

Trump also praised business collaborations and highlighted positive reviews of his recent speech, framing his leadership as practical and results-driven.
This video captures the moment Trump discusses his approach to governance while addressing world leaders and business elites.
