Thanks for the reply… But if it then gets really bad for him, could Trump just ‘rebate’ a percentage of DOGE ‘savings’ to all Americans - many of whom would happily ignore Trump’s destruction of US institutions & foreign policy if they got a $10K cheque in the mail from Trump’s govt?… - ThreadSky

Unless my maths are off, if he have every American a cheque for $10k it would cost $2.5 trillion, and would also blow the inflation figure into space

He can try. It won't matter. He is already underwater.

Apologies also as I don’t know US system - but would Trump getting thrown out of White House even help? Doesn’t that just put VP Vance in charge? His Project 2025 foreward shows Vance an ideological sociopath very much supported/funded by the same US power & wealth behind Trump/Musk current actions

But he is not supported by the same voters as blindly. Thats the problem with personality cults. They rarely survive the loss of the personality.

Thank you.

From your comment above about Trump cancelling/cutting so many US govt programmes causing Americans to tell him “you’re fired” after just a few months into his term, perhaps the better UK analogy is Truss, not Johnson.

Throwing Trump out is much harder under the American system than the British. And Republican Senators have shown no spine so far. But his unpopularity means more Dems may win during the midterms who can block a lot of things.
