    Before, his power was checked by legislature…but now GOP has full control over the gov, and the supreme Court has 5 members nominated by Trump, soon to be 7.

    Hand maidens tale seems possible. Destruction of the middle class through tariffs, union busting, tear down of heath coverage, teardown public schools, force colleges to abandon certain studies or no federal money…

    Add in non stop fossil fuel promotion with drill baby drill attitudes, tear down NOAA and the nhc because strong hurricane news reinforces climate change.

    I guarantee in 4 years Trump will try to name a successor instead of holding an election.

      That would require the narcissist to not think he’s still young and vibrant and will never die. He will go the same way his father did, being manipulated by the worst around him as he drifts into dementia. He will be propped up as a puppet as Reagan was.

        He could postpone the election if America is at war.

          That’s funny, I could have sworn it was Eurasia last year. I must be mistaken.

              I’m most certainly not. Oh look, time for The Two Minutes of Hate already. 📺

        Here’s a horrifying thought: JD’s Silicon Valley puppetmasters wait until Trump has served just over 2 years into his term, then invoke the 25th and install JD. In the meantime, the MAGA types work the system to ensure they can guarantee a Vance victory through whatever means necessary for the next 2 cycles (since his first abbreviated session won’t count as an official term), or a total of 10 years, before most Americans even realize we have sleepwalked into a Vance dictatorship funded by and primarily benefiting oligarchs like Musk and Thiel

        I’m quite sure that this is already the case.

      tear down NOAA

      Fuuuccckkkk… Add to the list of things I forgot… The AccuWeather guy is about to become even more wealthy…

      The billionaire class are the only winners of this election, but then again when aren’t they the winner? Money is literally power.

      Trump had a Republican majority in the House and Senate when he entered office in 2017. They were incompetent, and it took them a while to get anything done.

          They did, and most of it was implemented then as well.

        Yeah but he probably thought he was going to have 8 years in a row. Now he has bigger ass-kissers.

      No. He will not name a successor, he will remain president. Either he will eliminate elections or he will do like his idol, Putin. Arrest and murder anyone who dares oppose him.

      He is an extreme narcissist and egotist. Like extreme extreme. He cannot see a future where he’s not on the throne.

      Wanna bet he’ll put up one of his kids (hell perhaps even Barron?) and bend the whole sycophantic side of the GOP into endlesdly propping them up?

      In 4 years, you may simply get Trump III. I want to say this notion seems absurd, except that it absolutely isn’t.

      Goddamnitalltohell. I forgot we’re going to have to subscribe to private disaster warning systems. That’s pretty much it in a nutshell. Perfectly describes everything they want to do.

      Do you remember a few years ago when the orange idiot hugged a piece of coal and called it “beautiful clean coal”? Ugh, what a dip shit.

      I guarantee in 4 years Trump will try to name a successor instead of holding an election.

      And it’ll certainly be one of his moronic children.
