Former President Donald Trump, during a Fox News Town Hall, stated that he would not be a dictator "except for Day One" if he is reelected. When asked to clarify, Trump mentioned closing the border and increasing oil drilling as actions he would take. The Biden campaign seized on these comments, accusing Trump of admitting he would be a dictator on day one. Trump has previously stated that the indictments he is facing are politically motivated and has expressed his intention to appoint a special prosecutor to investigate President Biden and his family if he is elected. Trump is currently leading in the GOP presidential primary polls.
