Michael Cohen, a former personal attorney for Donald Trump, expressed on MSNBC’s “The ReidOut” that if Trump wins in 2024, he will declare himself a fuhrer on day two.
Cohen emphasized that Trump’s desire to rewrite the Constitution and consolidate power in the executive branch reveals autocratic tendencies, likening him to a dictator or monarch.
He warned that Trump would seek loyalty oaths from the military and government officials, indicating a desire for absolute authority. (Trending: Trump Announces Major Promise For 2024)

“I think that people, they still don’t take Trump seriously. When he says I’ll only be a dictator on day one, people in the audience laughed,” Joy Reid said.
“I noted also that when he said, I’ll close the border and drill they cheered. But the first thing they did is when he said I’ll be a dictator on day one.”
“Someone in the audience screamed yeah and people seemed happy about it. So do you feel that at this point it’s one of two things, there are either people in this country who actually crave a dictator Trump and president for life who is Donald Trump or they just don’t believe he’ll do it?”
“Either way, it doesn’t really work. First of all, if he’s going to be a dictator on day one, rest assured, I know him better than almost anybody,” Cohen said.
“He won’t be a dictator on day two. He will be a king.”
“He will make himself into the fuhrer and make everybody raise their hand and salute him, ‘Hail Shitler.’ He is an autocratic wanna-be with autocratic tendencies.”
He added, “It is Donald Trump saying it when he says on the first day he wants to re-write the Constitution.”
“Seriously, he wants to strip the power of the judiciary and the legislature and confer all power to the executive branch. Again, that means to him he wants the military to sign a loyalty oath to him.”
“He wants the 151,600 people that will work for government in the transition team to sign a loyalty oath to him. The only person that asks for a loyalty oath is a dictator, a supreme leader, a monarch, a fuhrer.”
