I'm not sure this will be any comfort to anyone but; Presently as far as what Trump has done, as in not including rhetoric about future plans that may or may not happen, Trump is at worst our second most authoritarian president of all time. He has a long way to go if he intends to top John Adams.

We previously found that the Trump administration knew the vast majority of the 230+ Venezuelan men deported to El Salvador had not been convicted of violent crimes.
Our latest analysis reveals another jarring reality: that most of the men were already moving through the U.S. immigration system.

Like most of the more than 230 Venezuelan men deported to a Salvadoran prison, José Manuel Ramos Bastidas had followed U.S. immigration rules. Then Trump rewrote them.

NEW: Of the 230+ Venezuelans deported to El Salvador:
• Almost half had immigration cases that were not yet decided
• More than 60 had pending asylum claims, some just days away from final hearings
These men had followed U.S. immigration procedures. Then Trump changed the rules.

To be sure, both parties have supported ICE in the past.
But Trump has given ICE more cops than the FBI, more jails than the federal Bureau of Prisons, and a larger budget than most countries' militaries.
This isn’t business as usual. This is a fast track to full-blown dictatorship.

You know he's shook because he forgot to say "Obama" funny
REPORTER: Did the attorney general tell you that your name appeared in the Epstein files?
TRUMP: No no. She's given us just a very quick briefing. These files were made up by Comey, Obama, they were made up by the Biden-- we went through years of that with the Russia Russia Russia hoax
