That doesn't even make sense. Presidents don't "rule you absolutely." They're public servants, and have concrete limits on their power. Yes, Trump tried to ignore those limits, but it didn't work that well, and Trump is in legal trouble because of his efforts to abuse his power. And other presidents (from both parties) have been pretty respectful of those limits. Biden, Obama, Bush, Reagan, etc. did not attempt to "rule absolutely" either.
