More than anything, Biden should call Trump out for being what he is: a little boy who wants to be accepted by the big boy dictators he so admires like Putin and Orban and Xi Jinping and Kim Jong Un.

Trump and his henchman, Steven Miller, have been open about their plans if Trump is reelected. These plans include mass roundups and vast concentration camps to hold people for deportation. Sound familiar? It should.
