12. Ineptitude and delusions of competency often go together.

Two things that make Trump a dictator:

1. Executive orders - unvetted, unlimited, revenge documents with no mechanism to say - nope, not having that.
(Whoever thought giving a nutcase king-like powers needs to be severely reprimanded! Posthumously.)

2. All those cult members who shout 'what a great idea!' as Trump sinks the ship of state - and the US economy with it.

Interesting facts:

George Washington signed 1 EO per year for 8 in total.
Trump, 1.0: 220
Trump, 2.0 - the Revenge Tour: 144 so far (probably an out of date number)
