Problem is that once you have a dictatorship, you don’t suddenly go back to elections and normal politics once the dictator dies — you get the dictator’s kid or friend running things.
Somehow I don’t think Generalissimo Eric Trump is in the cards. Probably someone more like Elon Musk or Sean Hannity. A celebrity that can rile up enough violence to overcome his or her competitors.
Okay so 4 year term then he becomes dictator for a year, you think that system will let go of that power once in place? Well maybe I’m not one to study thing things but it doesn’t seem likely.
According to Wikipedia the elite tried to continue the dictatorship but due to pressure things transitioned. Thank you for arguing for my point.
Edit. Okay wiki didn’t say they tried to continue the dictatorship technically but that’s the implication if they were pressured to move to a democracy. So maybe my point wasn’t argued.
honestly once you get into your 70s you’ve mostly dodged the usual things that kill unhealthy people if you’re a relatively healthy and mobile person in your 80s then you’ll probably make it into your 90s barring any major accidents
He’s 78 and obese. Dictator for life is like 5 years now.

This is the point. The Secret Police have files on everyone, and the military isn’t about to hand over their weapons.
The judges on the bench got in because they support The Man; the people collecting taxes; the teachers; everybody in government has to be replaced.
It’s easy to make soup. It’s not so easy to unmake a soup.

Maybe you should study things. Start with Franco.
