No, you are not in North Korea and man in the White House is Donald Trump, not a dictator. But if you listen to Donald Trump and watch his actions over the last few weeks, you would think we are living in North Korea, and you would think the man in the White House is Kim Jong-un.
In his latest brazen attempt at dictatorship, Donald Trump called Georgia’s Republican governor on Saturday and ask the governor to overthrow the election results in Georgia. Trump asked the governor to insert electors that will declare him the winner.
Hours before he was scheduled to hold a rally in Georgia on behalf of the state’s two GOP senators, Trump pressed Kemp to call a special session of the state legislature for lawmakers to override the results and appoint electors who would back the president at the electoral college, according to a person familiar with the conversation who spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe the private call.
Trump also asked the governor to demand an audit of signatures on mail ballots, something Kemp has previously noted he has no power to do. Kemp declined the president’s entreaty, according to the person.
