It's more rule by law than rule of law.

While I won't say I have a lot of trust in Trump when it comes to upholding the rule of law, it's ridiculous to cast him as the sole threat when his opponents are:

-Spending tens of billions without Congressional approval, in a clear vote-buying scheme

-Twisting and stretching the law to jail or bankrupt him or keep him off the ballot

-Engaging in coerced suppression if not outright censorship of opposing views

-Acting like the 2nd Amendment doesn't exist and defying court decisions clarifying that it in fact does

-Siccing federal law enforcement on regular citizens who speak out in disfavored ways

-Threatening to unilaterally remove the ability of one of the 3 branches of government to effectively check the other 2
