If a US President wanted to be a dictator, he would:
- talk up a 3rd term
- ignore Congress
- stack the judiciary
- sack opposing army generals
- pardon criminals that would fight for him
- ignore rules-based order
- set up a militia
So far, so bad.
Think on, America

A presentation slide with a dark brown header reads, “Is It Complicated?!?!?: 5 Questions For Thinking About Your Relationship with GenAI,” followed by “aiedusimplified.substack.com” and the tagline “AI + Education = Simplified.” Below the title, three close-up portraits of different cats are arranged side by side, each with distinct fur patterns and lighting. A small resource link appears at the bottom: https://bit.ly/SSU-AI-Questions
, suggesting the slide supports a reflective discussion about GenAI.
