Stanley noted that Trump's behavior resembles that of a mob boss, saying, 'If you want to understand what is going on, think about the mafia. This is the same thing. The literature on dictators talks about the relationship between fascist leaders and the mob boss.' He emphasized that Trump's strategy includes hiring people who already know what he wants, similar to tactics seen in gangster films.
Stanley expressed concern over the normalization of Trump's selections by the media, stating, 'They are just reporting on it as if it’s normal. This is completely par for the course, targeting opposition politicians and the media.' He highlighted the danger of such actions and their implications for democratic processes and civil discourse.
