This lot mean to remain in power way beyond 2029. Like, indefinitely. And who's likely to stop them? A rigged, gerrymandered Congress? The Supreme Court that's now 6 to 3 in their favour? An army and police force filled with Right-wingers and white supremacists? The centrists?
Remember his words : "Vote for me just this one more time and you'll never need to vote again". He was in effect telling the neanderthals that democracy is the problem !
And I am baffled that the GOP has let it happen. Of course they wanted to win the elections, but I would think that the majority doesn’t want an authocracy
Most of the gop is stupid enough to be easily duped by q-anon...
Plus as Glen Kirchner mentioned, blackmail -- for example Lindsay Graham changed from never-trumper to felon sycophant after a meeting on a golf course...
The biggest disappointment of all is that the ENTIRE "justice" system and the ENTIRE democrap party refused to even pretend to take the law in any way seriously.
Not a single judge showed any real integrity; every single one gave him criminally preferential treatment.
The USA is over. We’re into the era of the American Oligarchy now, and the wild card is the figurehead won’t be alive for long. The next guy won’t have to win an election. He might not even be American.
You’re saying Musk, aren’t you?? I don’t think that would fly here. I think Americans would REVOLT rather than have MUSK make himself our LEADER. Even if he could declare himself President (which he can’t unless they change the Constitution). I don’t think ANYONE in the Military will listen 2 him.
Excellent point. I think you’re on to something with that statement. Nobody who lived through WWII in Europe would EVER want a war like that again. Americans are spoiled in the fact we’ve never had a war on our own soil in our lifetime(s). It makes the American perspective more NAIVE & optimistic.

LOL.

The democracy in the US is finished. Sorry to say. Clarence Thomas, Mitch McConnell and Garland are to blame at the end.
In International Relations there's a theory that war becomes likely after the last generation has died who last lived a war. This is our reality.
