That someone who says and does the things he does gets so much attention. The MSM would sell us into slavery if it helps their ratings. All of these things should have disqualified him from ever running for president.

But's what really scary to me is the cheerful following from the authoritarian crowd that he gets. These people have been emboldened by him. See the beating of a black man at one of his speeches and the shooting of BLM folks, though we can't connect the latter to his followers, it's part of the general atmosphere he and the right wing media are encouraging.
