Trump: It’s Nice To Have A Strongman Running Country

CNN reports:

Over more than 90 minutes, Trump delivered the vengeful message that he has made the focus of his campaign, moaning about the lost 2020 race; defending the January 6, 2021, rioters; and pushing again for the Supreme Court to declare him and all presidents immune from prosecution. The court hearing the claim has expressed skepticism, but Trump is continuing to make his case in public. On Saturday night, he invoked President Harry Truman’s use of the nuclear bomb in Japan in 1945 as a case study.

“Look at Harry Truman,” Trump said. “He wouldn’t have done, if you think Hiroshima, not exactly a nice act but it did end the Second World War probably, right? Nagasaki. He wouldn’t be doing that; he said, ‘I don’t want to do that because my opponents will indict me.’” Though the morality of the decision has been debated, no one sought to bring legal charges against Truman. “It’s nice to have a strongman running your country,” Trump said Hungary’s Viktor Orban.

A good time for Nikki to say, she can’t support a presidential candidate who boasts of wanting dictatorship, and she’ll fight to the end to save her party from nominating such a person.
