VakAttack Posted December 6, 2023 Posted December 6, 2023 (edited) So far, he's been asked if he'll be a dictator (he didn't actually answer at the time) and then, when asked a second time about abusing his power he said "only on day 1". Here's that second exchange: Even with Hannity running cover for him, he can't help himself. Edited December 6, 2023 by VakAttack 1
jross Posted December 6, 2023 Posted December 6, 2023 This 'second time' isn't the win you may think it is. And neither was the first time. "I want to close the border and drill, drill, drill." That says executive orders to me. Here are some of Trump's executive orders with border or energy in the title. Biden revoked them all. You can expect Trump to put back something similar.

WrestlingRasta Posted December 6, 2023 Posted December 6, 2023 He’s been making it very clear what another term would look like, with his own words. It’s up to y’all to listen.
jross Posted December 6, 2023 Posted December 6, 2023 What bothers you? Link with context please and if there is any ambiguity in the meaning, what is your take on it? Good morning.

I honestly have thought about it this time around for the specific purpose to vote for.....currently Haley but it's kind of neck and neck with Christie. That said, why is it up to Dem's or Ind's to clean up republican's house???

mspart Posted December 6, 2023 Posted December 6, 2023 So to be clear in context: https://www.rev.com/blog/transcripts/trump-town-hall-with-hannity-12-5-23-transcript Hannity (18:33 We almost have to go to a break. I want to go back to this one issue, though, because the media has been focused on this and attacking you. Under no circumstances, you are promising America tonight, you would never abuse power as retribution against anybody. Trump (18:51 Except for day one. Hannity (18:53 Except for? Trump (18:54 He’s going crazy. Except for day one. Hannity (18:55 Meaning? Trump (18:56 I want to close the border and I want to drill. Hannity (18:59 That’s not retribution. Trump (19:05 I’m going to be… He keeps… We love this guy. He says you’re not going to be a dictator, are you? I said, no, no, no. Other than day one. We’re closing the border and we’re drilling, drilling, drilling. After that, I’m not a dictator. Okay? Hannity (19:18 That sounds to me like you’re going back to the policies when you were president. Trump (19:21 That’s exactly… Hannity (19:22 Take a break, we’re just getting started. We’re in beautiful Davenport, Iowa. And that is the context. Trump will close the border and drill drill drill on day one. That is his definition of being a dictator only on day 1. So calm down Jonathan Karl. And he is equating retribution with policy changes on the border and drilling. Seriously, this is beyond silly what people are getting bent out of shape for. mspart 1

Truly amazing the lengths people will go to. He's asked if he's going to abuse his power for retribution, says "no except on day 1," then says other stuff about drilling and the idea is...what? He's so mind numbingly stupid that he thinks drilling is the same as retribution? Or that maybe, just maybe, the stuff he said about drilling is not an exhaustive list of his plans.
headshuck Posted December 7, 2023 Posted December 7, 2023 Yeah Vak, he’s going to answer a question about becoming a dictator. Dumb question. Next. 1

Husker_Du Posted December 7, 2023 Posted December 7, 2023 talk about a 'reach,' Vak. geesh. he's clearly half joking. drilling and closing the border aren't even dictatorial moves. but know what is? opening the border. TDS is real. 4 1 1 TBD
ionel Posted December 7, 2023 Posted December 7, 2023 Because of the comments and discussion here I went back and watched the question and answer. My thought was, TDS is real and contagious. I don't like Trump but good grief he hasn't changed, this is the way he talks, any who understands that know what he was saying and its not that he is going to be a dictator for a day. I don't know why we don't have a vaccine program for TDS, half the country has it, if you show symptoms you should be required to isolate for 10 days with no internet, clearly a booster shot program may be needed to get us thru the next ~5 years. 2 .
VakAttack Posted December 7, 2023 Author Posted December 7, 2023 Incredible. TDS is listening to the words he says and believing him.
