    The thing is, the common thought Trump will abide by bureaucratic processes is utterly wrong. He and his cronies even made abundantly clear they will replace any opposition starting day one, and declared they have 50.000 people chosen and lined up to fill the newly empty government positions. They have no intention wait out approvals or discussions about new laws or rules.

    He’ll sign an executive order making instant sacking of any bureaucrat possible, those that try to block or slow him down will be forcibly removed.

    As I keep bringing up, Hitler did not come into full power over years, no it took mere months and a healthy week of literally murdering all of his then political opposition to do it. Then all that came from Hitler was a denial along “I do not believe my people did this” and the whole country’s government and judicial system was too afraid to not crown him Supreme leader.

    The Trump camp is following the exact same roadmap… including Trump declaring his current “Jan 6th hostages” to be innocent of all crimes.

    So please do not underestimate his threats or think he’ll need far more than 4 years to accomplish this, as soon as he able to claim the election in his favor (because hey, the republicans are going to refuse to certify any other outcomes, unlike previously in 2020) he will be beyond existing laws and judges. And apparently it will be all legal because it is the certification that matters, not the amount of votes.

    And the very minute he gets an actual armed force to occupy the congress or white house, “as a defensive measure”, well good luck getting him out and undoing whatever laws/decrees he started writing.
