If you believe Trump is joking about wanting to become a dictator after everything we've lived through -- including a failed coup attempt! -- I do not know what to tell you. He has also been lying about his poll numbers for his entire career. None of this should be surprising.
The transcript of this interview is worth spending time with. When NBC's Kristen Welker was on the phone with Trump, she started out by saying "I know you're joking about this," but "I've been talking to a lot of your allies. They say they're very serious." He responded by essentially confirming it.

maybe there was actually a pretty good reason for the 14th amendment to have banned insurrectionists who tried to overthrow the government from serving in government and the decision to just decide it was a dead letter and ignore it was a horrible mistake?

All groups are political. Your book club. Your knitting group. Your gardening collective. The companies from which you buy your food, clothes, entertainment. The place you work out. Right now, in this cultural moment, anything you can do in the groups you're in contact with makes a difference.

I think people are kinda missing the point of what Trump is talking about by dismantling FEMA. His vision is clearly that the federal government helps red states and lets blue states fend for themselves. Trump is not going to screw over red states, but he'll gladly punish blue ones.
Trump claims that disaster aid for North Carolina and California will go through his administration instead of FEMA

their view is that high status jobs ought to belong to white men, who exist at the top of a natural hierarchy
