Dope1: Trump could have made himself dictator during Covid and didn’t.

Gotta' hand it to the cult and it always turning a blind eye. Here's just one example of what Trump said during the Covid-19 pandemic as he ignored rising cases and deaths in blue states:

“If they don’t treat you right, I don’t call,” Trump said of those state leaders.

“I think they should be appreciative. Because you know what? When they’re not appreciative to me, they’re not appreciative to the Army Corps, they’re not appreciative to FEMA. It’s not right.”

Trump said that Pence “calls all the governors. And I tell him, I’m a different type of person, and I say, ’Mike, don’t call the governor of Washington. You’re wasting your time with him. Don’t call the woman in Michigan.”

So deciding which states receive federal assistance and which states do not based on the way they treat Dear Leader sure sounds dictatorial.
