During a Fox News town hall with Sean Hannity, Donald Trump joked that he would only be a "dictator" on his first day in office to close the border and expand oil drilling. NBC News and the Biden campaign reacted sharply, warning voters to take the comment literally as a threat to democracy. Supporters argue the remark was clearly hyperbolic "shtick" intended to mock the media's obsession with his potential authoritarianism.

Former Secretary of Defense Mark Esper appeared on CBS News to discuss the Biden-Xi summit. Esper characterized Biden's off-the-cuff remark calling Xi Jinping a "dictator" as a truthful but diplomatically complicated statement. He emphasized that while communication is vital, the U.S. must "verify" China's actions, as the Chinese government has a history of failing to keep international commitments.

He warns that failing to act could result in humanity becoming a "bad biological experiment."
