The Supreme Court ruled that Donald Trump can be a dictator though, Justice Sotomayor wrote "he now will be insulated from criminal prosecution. Can order the Navy’s Seal Team 6 to assassinate a political rival? Immune. Organizes a military coup to hold onto power? Immune. Takes a bribe in exchange for a pardon? Immune. Immune, immune, immune. Sotomayor writes in the final decision of the Supreme Court's term, "Because our Constitution does not shield a former President from answering for criminal and treasonous acts, I dissent."
However, there is a window if he wins, Biden could kill Trump between Nov 4th and Jan 6th if he wins
