No. In today’s Republican Party, statutory rape, illegal drug use, obstruction of justice…these are all things that will probably help Gaetz politically. That and…a missing U.S. Congresswoman? Huh?

more polling out that clearly shows more and more Republicans want Trump to be a dictator, to be an authoritarian. Polling for the past few years has shown an increasing number of Republicans and Trump supporters open to and actually supportive of an American President with the powers of a dictator. This is anathema to America, right? But why do so…
