@Rob-fc4fv A lot there. First off, trump is an authoritarian because A) He surrounds himself with sycophants (IE: ass kissers). B) He thinks of himself as above the law (and not, it would seem, without reason). C) He doesn't understand the system of checks and balances on which our system is based. D) His background as a businessman, particularly a family business, is not one which lends itself to recognizing the need for consensus. (Other presidents have had business backgrounds, of course, such as Carter and Truman, but both had held elective office prior to becoming President.)
Secondly, regarding AOC's tax proposal. She is not proposing taxing the entirety of the 1%s income at 70%, but only the amount exceeding a certain amount. (I will be charitable and assume that you are misunderstanding the proposal rather than intentionally misrepresenting it.)
The arrival of the worst effects of climate change has been forestalled by the actions taken on many levels, but this past July WAS the hottest month on record, EVER.
And regarding illegal immigration. Aliens DO NOT vote and there is ZERO evidence that they do. This is just something that trump and his supporters tell themselves. I literally can not think of a crime with a worse risk/return ration than voter fraud. What illegal immigrant is going to risk prison/deportation just to run up Hillary's margin of victory in California. trump even put together a commission to investigate it and quietly dismissed it when they found NOTHING. And PLEASE, don't tell me that they don't risk prosecution because no Dem official is going to prosecute them. Voter fraud, when there is a federal office on the ballot, is a FEDERAL offense and trump's justice dept. would LOVE to bring charges. (Oh, there was ONE case recently of an alien voting. He was a trump supporter.
