Oh, it is working magnificently. Dictator talk has always been big among a poor, desperate, ignorant populace as it makes it sound so comforting to be a select group and to have ridged rules against all others - it never works that way, but never mind that.
Nothing we can do. We can try to explain to his supporters but they are so brainwashed it's futile. The only one who can save us are the courts trying to lock him up, and we know how swift the justice system is here.
It's ok cuz the book was given to him by a Jew. (It wasn't, but he said it was in an interview and it turns out that the gift-giver's name has "Gold" in it, so the Nazi-flavored Cheeto assumed he was a Jew)
Prior to eviction laws, Papa Trump would plan to tear down slum apartment buildings, but allow black families to move in. Then kick them all out the day of demolition, without warning. The Trumps and Kushners have all always been literal psychopaths.
Hitler had no 'progeny'. That word means descendants, not descendants of siblings or cousins. Well ignoring some completely unproved allegations about some children from affairs that is.
And there are still some living descendants of Hitler's siblings. His older half brother Alois had two kids, the younger died during the war and the elder, William, didn't get on with Uncle Hitler so moved to the UK before the war. He later moved to the US and joined the US Navy in 1944. He changed his surname to Stuart-Houston and had four children, one of which is dead but the other three are still alive and childless.
His older half sister Angela married Leo Raubal and had three kids. Two of them had a child each who are still alive. Dunno if either of those have any kids.
There have been rumors for years that he keeps a book of Hitler's speeches by his bedside. He also has spoken glowingly of how various dictators keep their populace in line.
Of course, by himself Trump is too clumsy to install a dictatorship. If it was just him, I'd predict a second Trump term would involve a lot of bad stuff, but no outright dictatorship as he'd get distracted by some Twitter/X/Truth Social feud.
However, once you add in Project 2025 and similar people who would likely have roles in Trump's second administration, then things get truly scary. They admire dictators too and they are capable of planning and executing the death of democracy.
It's just become really scary at this point, to be honest. The right have debased themselves so thoroughly, the only thing they have left is to actually elect this fucking psycho and be "right"
