Summary
On her podcast Monday, Ana Navarro pushed back after Hunter Biden said the U.S. had "already" lost democracy under Donald Trump and called him "a dictator ... in no uncertain terms."
Navarro said Trump "would like to be a dictator" but argued the country still has courts, elections and a free press, framing the bigger problem as weak Republican congressional oversight.
Hunter Biden pointed to Todd Blanche's confirmation as attorney general and federal charges against Don Lemon as evidence Trump was using presidential power against critics and journalists.
The exchange marked a shift in Navarro's rhetoric: she had recently called Trump a "wannabe dictator" and, at the 2024 Democratic convention, compared him to communist strongmen.
The White House rejected Hunter Biden's accusation, with spokesperson Davis Ingle dismissing the claim in a mocking statement.
