Former President Donald Trump said at a Fox News town hall Tuesday that he would not be a dictator “except for Day One” if he is elected president next year.
Trump’s comments at the taped event in Iowa came in response to host Sean Hannity’s asking him whether he would abuse the power of the office to seek revenge.
“You are promising America tonight you would never abuse power as retribution against anybody?” Hannity said.
“Except for Day One,” Trump responded, repeating the phrase.
