13 Ex-Trump Aides Warn of Dictatorial Power and Admiration for Dictators if He Returns
Oct 27, 2024, 07:56 AM
Thirteen former aides to Donald Trump have expressed concerns about his potential return to power, warning that he seeks 'absolute, unchecked power.' In a letter, these aides, identified as lifelong Republicans, highlighted Trump's admiration for authoritarian figures and his disdain for the American military. They cautioned that if re-elected, Trump could govern with dictatorial tendencies, a sentiment echoed by military leaders and former officials from his administration. Critics, including political analyst Bill Kristol, have characterized Trump as the closest thing to an authoritarian the U.S. has seen in its highest office, emphasizing that his governance could target immigrants and political opponents more aggressively than before. The letter and subsequent commentary reflect a growing alarm among former allies regarding Trump's potential impact on American democracy should he regain the presidency.
