Both Putin and Erdogan have cracked down on any type of criticism. Trump has clearly said that he wants to change the libel and slander laws to stop people from criticizing him as well. Trump has also repeatedly expressed his admiration for Putin and presents himself as a similar "strongman" type just like Erdogan and Putin. Lots of folks on Voat love Trump, but this is really frightening. Trump has said he wants to do the same fucking thing as Erdogan has done in Turkey and Putin has done in Russia--make criticizing him illegal.
