We've had 4 years of Trump and he's nowhere near closer to being a fascist dictator now than he was 4 years ago, but, sure, keep comparing him to one because THAT doesn't further divide the country or anything.
Yes, but a business is also not a democracy. It's undemocratic to do those things. Small "d" democratic. What is the opposite of democracy? Tyranny. Doing undemocratic things means sliding further away from democracy, and Trump has been consistently attacking democracy.
