cult of personality, attacking the press, denying everything, attacking the legitimacy of our voting system, creating division by refusing to unify people, shouting "law & order" to position himself as the only solution against chaos, inciting young supporters to push his agenda with more violence (akin to hitler youth), etc.


Exactly.


Nearly all of the press and social media companies worked together to fight and censor him and he’s the authoritarian one for calling them out on it?

By creating division you mean sending in troops to end riots that were burning down businesses, beating people, and spreading the virus all in the name of dubious claims of police brutality?

The rioters caused real violence that really happened. What did Trump’s supporters do that is violent on that level?


Imagine if there was a truly incompetent and corrupt president, not Trump of course, then what would the media landscape look like?

Is it any different?
