these are important semantic discussions, "dictator" is a title with so many negative connotations. Now Autocrat on the other hand, rolls of the tongue and has fewer negative associations.

Hence my comment about his desire to suspend the constitution.

Trump calls for the termination of the Constitution in Truth Social post

(CNN) Former President Donald Trump called for the termination of the Constitution to overturn the 2020 election and reinstate him to power Saturday in a continuation of his election denialism and pushing of fringe conspiracy theories.
