Trump "doesn't have the brains" to be a dictator

According to John Bolton, the former national security adviser, Donald Trump doesn't have the brainpower to be a dictator. Obviously Bolton, the guy with THE moustache, is not counting on getting a job in a future Trump adminstration because every time he is asked about his former boss he is very rude about him. Trump is on record as saying that he will only be a dictator for his first day and then will knuckle down as a democratic-style president. But Bolton doesn't seem to think that he has sufficient dictator assets. I don't know what he means by that because the current family of dictators around the world don't seem to have many brain cells between them but they keep ruling without too much trouble. I think Trump would be a pretty formidable dictator, issuing edicts as and when he decides. He doesn't need brains, he just needs total obstinacy and a determination to do what he wants without anyone, from Congress to the Justice Department, getting in the way. Joe Biden, on the other hand, doesn't have a dictatorial cell in his body. He is a Congress man through and through and when they screw him, he pleads and pleads but doesn't even lose his temper. I can imagine Trump has a fiery temper - indeed, biographies have confirmed it. So, John Bolton, your remark about Trump is pretty pointless. If Trump is elected in November, he's going to try to get his own way, and if he has to step into dictator's shoes, he will do just that.
