Abstract

This article discusses the concept of psychological projection and how it applies to the portrayal of Donald Trump as a dictator by President Biden and his supporters. The author argues that Biden and his allies project their own authoritarian impulses onto Trump in order to avoid confronting their own illiberal actions. The article provides examples of Biden's alleged abuse of authority, such as attempting to cancel student debt and ignoring Congress's commands. The author concludes by stating that both Trump and his opponents share a tendency to blame others for their own failings. [Extracted from the article]
