Christie tore into Hillary Clinton with gusto on Tuesday night, leading the assembled delegates in a mock prosecution of Clinton for the "crimes" of pursuing foreign policies that failed to bring peace to the Middle East, stop the rise of ISIS, contain aggressive Russian President Vladimir Putin or topple the dictatorial Castro regime in Cuba.

"The majority of us in Venezuela want an end to the dictatorship of Nicolas Maduro, but the criminal, cowardly and dictatorial nature of this regime wants to close all the electoral mechanisms that the people have to express themselves and show their desire for change," the Popular Will party said in a statement on Friday.

Nicolás Maduro no dudó en imponer medidas extremas apenas decidió informar del primer caso positivo confirmado en el país, de una manera tan tajante que todos intuimos que usará la crisis como pretexto para hacer lo que siempre ha hecho: apretar aún más el control dictatorial sobre una sociedad que vive una emergencia humanitaria.

That might be so, but it overlooks the way in which tyranny and writing are often conjoined — through the writing of laws and decrees, but also the stamping of coins, huge inscriptions on columns, the elaborate architectural construction of triumphal arches, not to mention the branding of slaves — that dictatorial regimes assert and exert control.

"Politically, I think he is discovering that having total dictatorial power has a downside, which is that when things go wrong or have a high risk of going wrong, then you also have to bear all the responsibility," said Victor Shih, an associate professor at the University of California San Diego who studies Chinese politics.

By the time the banks finally began reopening on March 13, Roosevelt had delivered the first of his intimate "fireside chats" over the radio and had been granted what The Times described as "practically dictatorial powers" by Congress after he proposed a $500 million cut in federal salaries and pensions, and in veterans' compensation.

There's no crime so severe that Trump can't get away with it—not intentionally neglecting brown children until they die in cages, not being openly racist, not raping women, not helping hostile foreign powers and covering up for dictatorial regimes that torture American journalists to death, not putting American lives at risk in imperialistic and prosecutorial wars.

In the country that Hew Locke and I both left—Guyana—covert U.S. operations during the Cold War installed a government that became dictatorial, sowing an exodus; and for those of us who came to America, it makes perfect sense that we ran, with a whole heart and a certain irony, to the nation largely responsible for our uprooting.

A Republican lobbyist and political consultant, Mr. Manafort has a long history of enriching himself working for some of the world's most unscrupulous and dictatorial leaders, including Ferdinand Marcos in the Philippines, Jonas Savimbi in Angola and Mobutu Sese Seko of the Democratic Republic of Congo — not a list most American presidential candidates would want to be on.

Our colleague David Segal noted the onetime mogul's corporate achievements in a 2015 profile: Mr. Blankenship's quasi-dictatorial management style as chief executive produced spectacular results for Massey, transforming it from a relatively modest business dominated by a single family into a corporation that operated more than 150 mines and brought in more than $2.6 billion in revenue.

As for what we should actually hope for – well, the midpoint of each axis, the center of the matrix, seems like the sweet spot for the country: A Trump presidency that's competent-enough without being dictatorial, and that provides a needed populist corrective to conservatism without taking us all the way to mercantilism or a debt crisis.

Where this presidency's first year is concerned, I think we represent two poles of conservative skepticism: I've been most worried about Donald Trump's incapacity, the chance that we'll stagger headless into some geopolitical disaster; in your book, you seem most worried about the president's dictatorial tendencies, and you think that authoritarian danger is alive and well.

They contain phrases couched in that inimitable British voice that at once sounds pleasant and dictatorial: "the coins will come directly from the U.S. Mint, …" Liversidge is a mischief-maker; perhaps he's done his reading on the power of the artist to declare a thing and thereby make it so — like the works of Sol LeWitt and Yoko Ono.

It's fair to worry about the threat Trump poses to the rule of law and certain democratic norms, but unhinged and wacky dystopias have arisen as well, where the concern is less a gradual erosion of important norms and more a palpable fear that Trump is preparing an Alberto Fujimori-style auto-coup where he seizes full-on dictatorial powers.

It was appalling, inexcusable and against everything America stands for when Trump said he would be "honored" to meet the mass murdering North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un and praised him as a "smart cookie" apparently for keeping power by ordering the murder of his uncle among other demented, criminal and dictatorial acts that Trump seems to believe constitute strong leadership.

The latest episode of HBO's Real Sports presented to the outside world a reality mixed martial arts fans have been aware of for quite some time: that there's a dictatorial madman in Chechnya using sports as a propaganda tool to impose on his people a poisonous vision of masculinity and oppress anyone who would stand in the way of that vision.

Haemimont's earlier Tropico games suffered from some of these problems as well, but they were better-masked by the lushly gorgeous islands where those games took place, and the buoyant atmosphere of life in a dictatorial tropical paradise (even if that atmosphere was produced by indulging in a lot of stereotypes and gags about exploiting "banana republics" and the people who live in them).

"Her supporters will celebrate her as a champion of women's rights, a patron of the arts and a beacon of social modernity, while her detractors will dismiss her as a monstrous power monger who played a key role in reinstalling her brother's dictatorial reign and benefited lucratively under his tyrannical rule," Hamid Dabashi, a professor of Iranian studies and comparative literature at Columbia University, wrote in an article for Al Jazeera's website on Friday.
