NBC News presidential historian and author Michael Beschlöss warned on Sunday that a second Donald Trump administration would be a “presidential dictatorship.”
Earlier this month, a article in the New York Times said Trump, if he won the 2024 election, would look to seize presidential authority “over any part of the federal government now operating, by law or tradition, with some degree of independence from political interference by the White House.”
“This is something we’ve never seen before in American history,” Beschloss told MSNBC’s Jonathan Capehart. “This is a presidential candidate, Donald Trump, actually telling us straight out.”
Trump seemed to be taking a page out of the European dictator’s playbook, he added, noting how Italy’s Benito Mussolini and Nazi Germany’s Adolf Hitler also revealed their plans to gain far-reaching powers before taking office.
“God knows what’s going on in his (Trump’s) head that he’s not telling us,” Beschloss said.
