How Come Trump’s No Longer a Dictator?

For all his bluster and bullshit about how he now hates Fox News, Trump continues to use the network as his personal sounding board and gives the network interview time that nobody else in the Fake News gets.

He not only gives Fox plenty of free time, but Fox has the fucking balls to refer to his appearances as ‘interviews’ when he’s never asked a single question that he didn’t give them to ask before the interview actually begins.

The latest example of this astonishing lack of media sensibility was when Trump was on yesterday’s show with Maria Bartiromo and was given an opportunity to disavow his ‘day one dictator’ comment, which he promptly did.

This was a comment he made on an appearance with Sean Hannity (who works for Fox but actually really works for Trump) in which Trump declared he was going to do all sorts of things on Day One of his second Presidential term, like shut down the border completely and open up every inch of space for oil drills, and get rid of all those Communists and Socialists who work for the Federal Government.

And he is going to do these things and other things without any Congressional support at all. Hence, he’s going to be a ‘dictator’ for one day, which he then told Bartiromo yesterday was a ‘big joke.’
