Subject: Re: Is This Fascism or Tyranny?
But it’s not just Trump, it’s the corrupt administration that he will install. Trump may be an incompetent fool but that doesn’t mean he and his sycophants can’t do irreparable harm.

Sycophants are usually not the most talented people for a given job, though. Someone like Kash Patel (to take an example) isn't the least bit qualified to run the CIA. While he might try to run the CIA the way Trump wants the CIA run, he lacks the basic skills necessary to actually do it. To be a dictator, you need to attract serious and capable people - not just loyal people.

Now - Trump might very well get some serious people to take jobs in his administration. The VP and Sec of State slots are going to be very tempting. But those people won't be taking those spots because they want to help Trump become a dictator for life - they'll be taking them because they want to be the person after Trump. Which isn't the path to a dictatorship.
