Donald Trump has said that he will not become a dictator if he becomes US president again except “on day one”, after warnings from Democrats and some Republicans that the US was in danger of becoming an autocracy if he wins the 2024 election. Fuck, well at least he’s honest on this statement
I’d personally say letting a different Democrat campaign would’ve helped with that… but whatever, let’s hope it still works out.
Would the jarring changing of guards be better or worse for Democrat voter confidence?
Honestly, I’m guessing the majority of Democrat voters nowadays aren’t voting Biden because of who he is, but because of who he isn’t. Any other person that isn’t a direct threat to democracy would probably be enough for them.
That being said, I’m not American and I don’t know who the other candidates could be: I know in 2020 Bernie could’ve done well but in 2024 he’ll be way too old.
