Trump is following Erdogan's playbook. He wants to be just like him, a wannabe dictator..
Erdogan’s time in power has drawn significant criticism. Major concerns include the erosion of democratic institutions through the politicization of the judiciary (Trump has done this with the SCOTUS), the suppression of free speech and independent journalism (Trump is doing this with CBS and the DOJ investigating journalists), and a prolonged economic crisis characterized by severe inflation and widespread poverty (Trump is guilty of this. Just look at grocery and gas prices, and 4% inflation under Trump).
Two lawsuits dismissed! Judges in New Jersey and Los Angeles rejected the Trump administration's challenges to local sanctuary city policies. Common Sense!
