We need a dictator just like in the Roman Republic to restore order. We'll worrry about the government's power when it's time, right now it's in our favor and we better use it to destroy everyone in our path.
You don't know what the dictator's job was in the Roman Republic do you? His job was to restore order and clean up the shitshow that made his powers necessary to begin with. Our entire nation is filled with traitors and useless politicians, if Trump were to go full Pinochet (which means stepping down and resuming elections after he's done) and clean this mess of a government I would applaud him.
You're wrong and I'll give you an analogy. Let's say you and your family open a family business. You all have an equal say in business decisions because there's not much of you. Now, the business expands and expands from 5 people to 10 to 100 to 10000 employees. Can you all have an equal say in business decisions? Of course not! You have a CEO (dictator) who runs the show because it is more efficient that way. This is the same as how the founding fathers intended for landowners to vote, then it got expanded to everyone, then it got expanded to women, then it got expanded to legal immigrants and now its getting expanded to illegal immigrants. How could a country run smoothly given that the founding fathers originally intended that only landowners could vote?
What you are saying is 100% the complete opposite of the founders intentions.
3 equal branches of government. Checks and balances of the power so 1 group or person doesn’t control everything
Initially only allowing land owners to vote was to ensure the voters had a stake in America, something to lose. Modern day example, again my opinion, if you don’t/never paid taxes, you should get no vote. What are they contributing to the rest of us? I don’t quite understand your point on land ownership; currently almost 70% of the population owns a home. ~230m voters, 2 times the number of people that voted in 2016
Our government is a republic. We have an equal vote, not an equal say. I don’t want pure democracy and I don’t want 1 person making all the rules. I’ve worked for corporate America for almost 2 decades; if our nation mimics business we are all fucked.

Negative ghost rider. We cannot agree there.
It’s not the time to doubt our roots.
Eliminate the FBI close the CIA, sure. Dictator? Nah man.

I guess I was not aware of that job in Rome. That doesn’t really change my opinion.
But have an upTrump. Our government is a complete shit show. Badly needs cleaning.
Sure seems like Trump is going to try.
