rule over the remainder with an iron lung?

This made me laugh.

I don't Think trump is trying to become a dictator. I think trump truly believes in the invisible hand of the market. He's fallen for the propaganda that "the problem with Capitalism is that it's never been tried. Governments are always getting in the way. If we just let go and allow the market to be free to self regulate all the problems will go away."

He is the quintessential failson confusing propaganda for the truth because they are able to exist in a ideological bubble detached from reality.
