This “shock and awe” is employed to underscore—as immediately as possible—the dictator’s power and to intimidate opposition by convincing people to believe that opposition is futile.  In the United States, Donald Trump has freely acknowledged his intent to become a dictator on “Day One” if he is reelected. On March 12,...
