Can we like ... put it in a contract?
And can we like ... add a clause that we are allowed to chop of his head if he refuses to give up his dictatorship after a day?
Because Trump is famous for honoring his contracts.

Riiight... so what has happened to make the Great Orange Hope magically more competent at fascism than he was during his first stint at the Waffle House?
His best trick (so far) was to sicc a white lynch mob on the capitol that was so incompetent it only managed to lynch some of their fascist besties (ie, police).
Trump is more dangerous outside the Waffle House than he is inside it - all the traction the fascists got out of Trump essentially ended when he became SCROTUS.
Trump doesn't want to be the head honcho - he wants a mass of foaming MAGA hive-mind stroking his ego while he rants at them from a podium - and it's much easier to achieve that while he is running for pres than actually being the pres. That is when Trump is at his most dangerous.
And, of course, liberals will do nothing to stop all this except to try and get their "good cop" into the Waffle House... but they will be sure to heckle antifa and BLM from the sidelines when these movements do the actual necessary work of physically confronting the white supremacists and their fascist besties (ie, the police) in the streets.
It's exponentially easier to be a fascist dictator than a conscientious democratic leader. One gives you ultimate power and authority, the other forces you into meetings where you have to weigh the pros and cons of policy and how the economy will perform on an international scale.

the answer is more republican backing, the Republican Party has purged its self of a lot of its internal opposition

Donald Trump has said that he will not become a dictator

I don't believe you
He can have a little ~~salami~~ dictatorship, right?
"If Trump wasn't running, I'm not sure I'd be running. But we cannot let him win,"
I’d personally say letting a different Democrat campaign would’ve helped with that… but whatever, let’s hope it still works out.

This guy is swirling the drain mentally. Another 11 months of this is why I think these polls are currently worthless.
Which begs the question why is he not in prison?????????????
