Trump's Dictator Brand: A Disaster for American Democracy
TL;DR
Former President Donald Trump's comment during a town hall with Sean Hannity, where he suggested he would not abuse his power in a second term, "except for Day One," has raised concerns about his second-term agenda and its potential challenges to democratic norms and constitutional limits on presidential power. Constitutional law experts discuss which aspects of his agenda may clash with norms and the Constitution, and which parts may simply be objectionable to partisans.
