Recently I heard - or read - Trump's administration compared to that of some third world dictator. And the more I hear - or read - the more I see the similarities. I think the discussion was how he's constantly surrounded by - and only trusts - his family members. And the other similarity is how he's using any powers he can muster to punish anyone who he believes dissed him. President Obama is his biggest target - and now he's going after states that are obviously not in his corner, starting with California.
