Trump Is Running for Dictator

During the attempt to steal the 2020 presidential election, Department of Justice official Jeffrey Clark was pressed by White House Deputy Counsel Patrick Philbin about the inevitability of mass unrest if President Donald Trump somehow clung to power. Clark’s answer, as recounted in Special Counsel Jack Smith’s indictment of Trump, was chilling: “Well, … that’s why there’s an Insurrection Act.”

The Insurrection Act allows a president to deploy the U.S. military on American soil to enforce state and federal law. In this case, however, the idea was to use the military to overturn laws and the Constitution, not to enforce them. In short, Clark was proposing nothing less than a military dictatorship. If the American people would not accept the overthrow of the Constitution, then the armed forces would be ordered to forcibly suppress dissent. American soldiers shooting citizens in the streets: a bloodbath at best, a full-blown civil war at worst.
