Not just Democrats but most Independents and a lot of Republicans see trump as a want to be dictator.
If Trump’s name weren’t attached to that the Zoomers might see it as some pretty high IQ social media posting.
Sure, but a lot of them wanted to be astronauts as kids but didn’t and they realize that the odds of Trump becoming Eternal Emperor are pretty low given the way our system of government works.

We will rebuild our capital city so it is no longer a nightmare of murder and crime.... Right now if you leave Florida — "Oh, let's go darling, let's go look at the Jefferson Memorial" ... and you end up getting shot, mugged, raped.

“I know nothing about Project 2025,” Trump wrote in a social media post. “I have no idea who is behind it. I disagree with some of the things they’re saying and some of the things they’re saying are absolutely ridiculous and abysmal. Anything they do, I wish them luck, but I have nothing to do with them.”

Here’s something more recent:Radical right wing Vox has a different take.
DC saw its deadliest year in more than two decades, with 274 people killed and a homicide rate that makes it among the deadliest cities in the country. Violent crime also spiked nearly 40 percent in the nation’s capital, driven largely by a surge of armed robberies and carjackings, many of them perpetrated by kids. The city reported more than 950 carjackings in 2023, and shocking news coverage about teen carjacking rings rattled residents and people who worked there.How the nation’s capital became an outlier on violent crime

"In 2023, Washington, D.C. had 274 homicides, the highest number since 1997, and the fifth-highest murder rate among the country's most populated cities."
The drop in 2024 was from a 20 year high in 2023.
If you own one statistic, you own both statistics.

“However, data informing the FBI’s figures is supplied voluntarily by law enforcement agencies across the US, and do not include major metropolitan areas including Los Angeles and New York, where crime is historically high. The LAPD and NYPD are the two largest police forces in the nation, but they are not included in the FBI data, which could have changed the data if it had been included.”
