Though I do agree that the democrats are being overdramatic. In his first term Trump already was mostly just a puppet who just wanted to feel powerful and let other powerful people make all the actual decisions. Now that will be even more so as he's exhausted and mentally impaired. Trump won't be a dictator, he will be a puppet. The real power will lie with the 3 groups that put him there: The religious right, foreign dictators and the megacorps.
Hitler was in a similar condition but he was able to grab absolute power and dominate those, Putin did a very similar thing. I don't think Trump will though, he will just let the powerful interests do whatever they want no matter at what cost.
Trump is almost comparable to the king of Poland at the time of the US' founding. A puppet ruler who just exists to keep the blame off of the oligarchy who have the real power and use it to enrich themselves at the expense of the people and the country as a whole.
