    He's the president of the most powerful country on earth. When his words are "I'm seeking a dictatorship" they are news.

    For day 1.

    It was supposed to be a ill be a dictator for a day to get shit done.

    Of course, that's not what actually happened, and it was obvious that was never what was going to happen, but it wasn't a "from day 1" as in a i'll always be a dictator.

    Exactly. Our media is absolutely spineless.

    It should be breaking news, the US has fallen to authoritarianism. Trump is a dictator, etc.

    They are not reporting the news accurately. But then again, the media currently serves the billionaire class.

    Newspapers say they report fairly on all topics. Critics say otherwise.

    Some people say the newspapers report everything perfectly fine. Not everyone agrees. Here's what we think.

    I got a million of these.
