"Trump said he would be a dictator on day 1 insinuating this by signing executive orders, just like every other recent president has done. Are they all dictators too? "

Every president produces some EOs. Trump is the clear leader of using EOs, and using them to legislate things he likely couldn't get Congress to pass.

"Economists are pretty mixed on if the tariffs are good or bad"

The preponderance of economists say that the way Trump is imposing and using tariffs is definitely bad for Americans, and ultimately the US economy. Inflation is heading back up, due largely to tariffs. The tariffs on Canadian softwood is increasing construction costs and tariffs on steel and aluminum are causing US automakers to reduce production - the very industry that Trump said would surge as a result of his policies.

"He trimmed the government fat a bit? Man… that’s so terrible. "

And the way he went about it was beyond stupid - thanks to you Trump voters. And now the Feds are having to try to rehire thousands of fired federal workers, having discovered that the federal agencies don't run by themselves.

"The people arrested were for obstructing or assaulting LE."

ICE always alleges obstruction when they don't have a real charge to use. No wonder the charges get dismissed when American citizens are arrested. I'm not defending illegal immigration; I think the only aliens who should be in the country are the ones who enter and stay legally. I'm objecting to the way Kristi and Homan are going about it. And I honestly hope masked, unbadged, unidentified agents breaking in without warrants are shot and killed for the simple reason that actions should have consequences. (Play stupid games; win stupid prizes.) I've no problem if they remove their masks, display proper LE ID, and execute valid warrants. I mean, after all, following the law is what people do in a "nation of laws," what the US used to be.

"Liberal cities with liberal policies who aren’t arresting antifa and letting them destroy our cities. If local LE is instructed to stand down against crime, law and order must be maintained and it is the role of the national guard to be dispatched when there is civil unrest."

In 2020 the politics of Portland and Seattle were beyond stupid. No argument there. However, that doesn't represent today. Portland is not at war, nor is there any insurrection there. If there were, the governor is perfectly capable of deciding whether or not to call out the National Guard. The purpose of the NG is to serve cities, state, and nation during emergencies, not to placate a maniac fascist president. There is no emergency in Portland or Seattle. And this is not a defense of the way either city is managing homeless populations.

" Trump has won multiple lawsuits against ABC News, CBS, Facebook, Meta, Twitter, YouTube and had other suits against The NY Times, CNN, and the Washington Post"

Trump hasn't won any such lawsuits. ABC, CBS, FB/Meta decided to just pay off Trump in hopes of currying favor, not realizing that when you pay off a bully, they just come back for more. NYT realized this and let Trump/DOJ "bring it on." The court immediately dismissed Trump's lawsuit as lacking any merit and failure to invoke any applicable law. The broadcasters could have done the same, lawyers were saying Trump had no case, but ABC and CBS were involved in acquisitions and mergers that Trump's gov't. could disapprove, so they tried the payoff route. Note that when Disney fired Jimmy Kimmel and realized Americans were voting with the wallets by canceling Disney subscriptions, they reconsidered and restored his TV show, much to Trump's chagrin.

"According to google AI, fascism is defined by dictatorial leadership, an emphasis on a social hierarchy, and the forcible suppression of opposition."

Fascism typically occurs in right wing governments, i.e., currently Hungary and Turkey to a significant extent. Fascist governments don't own the means of production, but are frequently joined at the hip, like Trump just did with Intel and proposes doing with other industries, like mining in Ukraine and I think I just heard proposes with Canada (which I find weird cuz Canada is a major global player in the mining field.). Left wing authoritarianism usually is found under communist government, i.e., the government owns the means of production and dictates everyone's role within the society.

"Nobody is losing their rights."

Yet. Are you denying that Trump is trying to suppress 1st A free speech, as exemplified by coming down on ABC and CBS and the NYT? If you're paying attention at all, you have to notice that Trump is trying to silence any criticism of him. Thin skinned fvcker can't stand to have anyone say mean stuff about him.
