"If he allows, you know, one or two senators or one or two House members to tank his Cabinet picks or his legislative agenda, it's going to make him a weakened president. "

kindergarten cabinet can't do anything as long as using existing social framework. attempting coup is something totally different, though tv clown con man is trying to do it.
Just because you won an election doesn't mean you're qualified for the job. I expect the worst the the next administration. From false starts, to grift, scandals, mismanagement, bad and harmful policies, public spats, and turnover.
Trump is a lame duck because he knows he can't run for President again. Don't expect him to leave willingly or a peaceful transition of power in 2029. Don't expect Trump to allow any more elections either. He's serious about wanting to be dictator & following the law is NOT what dictators do.
"If he allows"? We send people to Congress to represent our best interests; not to comply/obey/bow to an insurrectionist who should not be allowed to set foot in the White House. Represent us; not just your ego & bank account. Tank everything this man tries to do!
I gotta know WHY everybody is just accepting this guy as our next potus?!?!
What about the Constitution? What about his criminality? What about his abysmal incompetence?What about all the Americans he killed with Covid?
What about the soldiers he allowed bounties on? What about stolen State secrets?
As much as #GOP used him to get political power, reality is #DonaldTrump does not have control of government. The #republicans have own agenda that does not necessarily go with Trump's agenda. Exhibits 1 & 2: #BorderWall & #immigration. When #economy suffers from #massdeportations, GOP will end it.
Copium.
There's no historical evidence the "fractured" Republican party won't burn the country to the ground to loot it as it burns.
History, in fact, suggests they will do exactly that.
It doesn't take a tarot card reader to predict that any cracks will soon vanish. The consistent history in this regard is so compelling as to render any other prediction irrational. There may be one or two exceptions, but overall, Trump will get what he wants.
As in POTUS for a freakin weekend or a “weak end”… wait plz….. wtf is a “weak end”? Is this a new football DC catch it all phrase?! Umm splain it to me please ser?! He only “weakens” himself. Choices matter!
Musk is already threatening Repub to support Trump or he'll personally fund their primary opponents. We need to let politicians know that we'll support those who oppose Trump's picks.
Having a divided party isn't going to affect the damage Trump can do in the White House. The U.S. needs strong leadership on the global stage. He's more the petty tyrant with a nuclear club to threaten. It will create distrust of the nation. We'll lose out moral imperative, and they'll see it.

Turtle is out of leadership and older than dirt.
Knows his grip is slipping.
Knows he's damn near dead.
Knows his time is up.
Has nothing to lose by making statements that I think he hopes will gain him the "Romney-like 'hero'" tag on his way out.
Congress is a co-equal branch of government. Its legislators owe their allegiance to their constituents and the people, not some trumped-up mob boss.

This assumes normal guardrails are functioning.
