Donald Trump said that many Americans “would like to have a dictator” during an improvised and prolonged press conference in the Oval office, dedicated to security issues and recriminations against their opponents this Monday, August 25.
“Many people say ‘Maybe we would like to have a dictator.’ I don’t like dictators. I am not a dictator. I am a man endowed with a lot of common and intelligent sense,” said the US president, accused of authoritative drift for his opponents for his policy in terms of immigration and security.
“You send to the Army and, instead of congratulating him, they accuse him of assaulting the Republic,” he said, referring to his decision to send the National Guard to the streets of Washington to order the operations of order.
Donald Trump signed before journalists a decree punishing anyone who burns an American flag, and this, although the Supreme Court considered in a judgment of 1989 that such an act was of freedom of expression, a fundamental right protected by the Constitution. “If you burn a flag, you will have a year in prison, without early release,” he said.
An upcoming “Ministry of War”
The 79 -year -old Republican, who spoke for 80 minutes on the most diverse issues, with digressions of strength, also said he intended to change the name of the Ministry of Defense to give him the name of the “Ministry of War.”
The Republican president also attacked his political adversaries, more particularly those whose name is sometimes mentioned for the Democratic candidacy for the 2028 presidential election. In particular, he called “Sagouin” the democratic governor of Illinois JB Pritzker, and launched that he should “do more sport”, in reference to his corpulence.
Donald Trump also criticized the governors of California Gavin Newsom and Maryland Wes Moore, who recently attacked him with mockery on social networks. He launched the Democratic Party: “All its potential candidates are doing a bad job.” The president did not forgive his Democratic predecessor Joe Biden, whom he called “stupid.”
The US president reiterated that the city of Chicago, Illinois, could be the next objective of its operations to maintain the order involving the army, after the city of Washington.
“They know how to get it well!”
The Federal Capital will be “impeccable” to receive the World Cup next summer, said Donald Trump. He took the opportunity to show the competition trophy, which he gave him for FIFA Chief Gianni Infantino and now sits in the oval office, in the midst of other golden ornaments.
“It’s a massive gold trophy. They know how to be well seen!” He left the billionaire president, known for his taste for the ostentatious luxury.
Donald Trump has also evoked, in another digression, the problems caused by the Asian tent, a kind of invasive fish, for the ecosystem of the great lakes (north). He talked about a “quite violent fish that comes from China, the Chinese tent. (…) jump to boats, jump everywhere,” said the US president, and said that remedying this problem would be “terribly expensive.”
The northeast of Illinois, where is Chicago, limits with one of the great lakes, Lake Michigan. “As long as I do not have a request for this type (the governor of Illinois, note of the editor), I will do nothing,” said the Republican, who has threatened several times to question certain federal help mechanisms for democratic states.
