Dictators

Editor, Times-Union:
Democrats like to describe Trump as another Hitler and a threat to democracy. But let's compare Biden with Trump and determine who sounds more like a dictator.
Dictators lock up their political enemies. People urged Trump to lock up Hilary but he didn't. Biden has imprisoned hundreds of his political enemies like the ones that rioted on January 6 while people that burnt down government buildings in 2020 were allowed to roam free. People who support Trump are considered enemies of the state like those that opposed the Nazis and Soviets.
Dictators have their elections rigged in their favor. The Democratic primary this year reminded me of ones dictators rig that exclude challengers that are considered a threat to their regime. Trump was the heavy favorite in the Republican primary but he had serious competition.
Dictators evade taxes. Since Joe is "The Big Guy" and is supposed to receive 10% of the money Hunter received in business deals. Since Hunter made millions for being a Biden, that means Joe made enough to afford the houses he owns. There is abundant proof he knew of Hunter's business partners because they were pictured with Joe and he was actively involved at times. Trump has been open in his business deals and lost money while he was President. Appraising Mar Lago at less than $20 million by a New York judge when it's worth around $1 billion was a joke that has cost Trump millions in unjust fines.
Dictators often violate laws like Biden has done. He has no right to cancel college loan debt because only Congress can do that. Dictators like to change societal norms the way they want them to be like mutilate children, exterminate innocent lives like unborn children, force people to do what they don't want to do like buy an electric car when they'd rather buy a conventionally-powered car, and burden the people with too many regulations. Dictators think they are more important than the people and lie when they say no one is above the law because they act like they are above the law.
Trump lowered taxes for nearly everyone, removed burdensome regulations, honored the Constitution, made America energy independent and respected, made our economy strong with low inflation, and didn't allow millions of illegal aliens to invade America.
Biden said Trump lied 26 times in their debate but didn't tell us what the lies were if they existed. Biden lied constantly and those lies are actual. Biden is the true threat to democracy while Trump wants to defend it and nearly lost his life doing it. Now who is more like Hitler who also had Parkinson Disease?
