Stephen King posts a brutal assessment of what Trump is doing to America
Stephen King paused his recent run of horror movie reviews on Wednesday to give a damning assessment of what Trump is doing to America.
The legendary author, who has attacked Trump on social media many times in the past, accused the president of turning the country into a fascist state.
"We can kid about Trump, but it’s no joking matter," he wrote on X (formerly Twitter). "He and his cronies, aided and abetted by the Supreme Court, are turning America into a fascist, authoritarian state. The Republicans need to stop putting party over country and recognize the danger."

"So the line is that I'm a dictator, but I stop crime," Trump said. "So a lot of people say, 'You know, if that's the case, I'd rather have a dictator.' But I'm not a dictator. I just know how to stop crime."
Trump has received widespread criticism in recent weeks for deploying the National Guard in Washington D.C. and placing it under federal control as part of a supposed crackdown on crime. His recent remarks about dictators come on the heels of renewed criticism over his plan to expand the policy to Chicago and New York.
