‘The man who was made for this job is doing exactly what he said he would do,’ Newsmax’s Rob Finnerty declared, adding that the American public ‘asked for this and voted for this’. Gushing over Donald Trump’s “shock and awe” flood of executive orders upon returning to the White House, Newsmax host Rob Finnerty excitedly declared on Wednesday that the president was indeed a “dictator on day one,” but one “that the American people voted for.”.
During his presidential campaign, Trump repeatedly said that if he were once again elected president, he would “be a dictator for one day” and use his executive powers to enact sweeping changes to “take care of the border” and roll back actions taken during the Biden administration.
After taking the oath of office, the president immediately signed a slew of executive orders that included an effort to upend the Constitution and end birthright citizenship, deny the existence of transgender people, expand the death penalty, and axe DEI programs in the government.
He also issued blanket pardons and commutations to the nearly 1,600 people charged with crimes related to the violent January 6 Capitol riots, including former Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio and Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes, who were both convicted of seditious conspiracy.
