But a dictator in charge of the most powerful government in the world would not let go of the power and would do anything to maintain the power.

But that’s not what happened.

He was unprepared last time, and made the strategic mistake of having a few non-sycophants around in positions of power who could tell him that he had to surrender.

This time looks very different.

Please read the Jack Smith final report. He broke laws to stay in power, he did not give up any power willingly. And if the Supreme Court hadn't delayed things so much, he would have gone to trial and been found guilty before he could be reelected.

Just because he's an absolute dumbass who had no idea how to effectively overturn the election doesn't mean he didn't try and doesn't mean the attempt wasn't violent.
