Remember when that dude in Germany used emergency powers to only take control of the country temporarily.
Once he gets the power of a Dictator he is not going to give it up remember never again applies to all countries.
The word “dictator” comes from the Roman Republic, where it was meant to be only for temporary usage. Then Caesar just didn’t give up the power. When challenged he marched his armies into Rome. Now whenever we use dictator, we use it to describe the actions of people like Caesar, rather than it’s original use case.
Emergency powers have always and will always be abused.
Just watch me.

One of the few moments in Canadian history we can be proud of.
in any working democracy saying these words should get you banned from running for office for life
A life that stops at the end of a rope.
Ok, hear me out here. Instead of an election, we let Donny Two Scoops have a trial by combat. No proxy though, he has to do the fighting himself. If he can survive a No Holds Barred, No Disqualification, Hardcore UFC match against a voted on opponent, (survive being the operative word). He can be Glorious Leader of The Democratic Peoples of the United States. Then, we sell Pay Per View tickets for $500 ea, or live event tickets for $1000+, and then that money is used to pay off some of the national debt.
I mean, he’s the prime example of an Alpha Male, he’s in excellent shape, and is 6’ 3" and 215 lbs of grade A physique. Should be no challenge at all for him to survive a brutal physical challenge of strength and skill right? Hell, he’s such a great example of the perfect male specimen, he’d probably win with both hands tied behind his back. In fact, it wouldn’t be fair to not tie his hands for the fight, the other guy wouldn’t even stand a chance.
Just the tip. I swear.
If he can turn it on and off at will, he’s a dictator.
If he believes he’ll have eliminated the remaining checks and balances of democracy, he’s either crazy or a dictator.
Why not both? Well, in this case, it’s absolutely both.
And to his minions, one day won’t be nearly enough. They all want him to be a permanent dicktator.
Ohh awesome! These are available in Canada again. They suddenly weren’t available a couple months ago and it killed my lunch routine
Day One, sounds like Year Zero.
