GOP's "dictator" test
"Republicans in Congress and across the country — including on the GOP debate stage — are facing a new litmus test: Should former President Trump's remarks that he will be a "dictator" only on "Day 1" be taken seriously?
Why it matters: This isn't 2016. Trump is well aware that the softball question lobbed last night by Fox News' Sean Hannity — "Do you in any way have any plans whatsoever, if re-elected president, to abuse power?" — is rife with alarming context.
Zoom in: Trump is facing 91 criminal charges in four separate jurisdictions, including for allegedly trying to overturn the 2020 election in an unprecedented plot to remain in power.
He has openly floated plans to vastly expand presidential authority, staff the federal bureaucracy with loyalists, and dismantle the Justice Department's independence to exact retribution on his political enemies."
