When looking at the sum of Donald Trump’s actions on his first day in office (January 20th, 2025), how much will I agree with the statement, “Donald Trump was a dictator on Day 1”? This will only be looking at his actions, and not his words.

This will be Resolving to a percent, with 100% being “I fully agree that Trump was a Dictator on Day 1”, and 0% meaning “I don’t see any dictatorial actions in Trump’s first day”. As this is fully subjective, I won’t be betting here.

Why should you trust my subjective opinion here? I have a weird obsession with Dictator podcasts (I’ve listened to every episode of multiple dictator podcasts - some multiple times), and will be as structured here as I can: comparing his actions to both dictators and democratic leaders.

If you’re looking for a more standard version of this question, you can trade on Shump’s market here: Will Trump "Be a dictator on day 1" if elected?NO‌

@mods Mattyb is off the site, and this is an entirely subjective market, so I don't think it's suitable for mods to resolve this. In the next few days, I can msg Mattyb and ask him to chime in with his %, and resolve to that. If he doesn't want to opine, it will N/A. (As I don't think he'll be logging in to chime in himself, I guess you'll just have to trust me that I msged him, but that is what it is).
