    I honestly think this will be the last time we have an election. It’s looking like he could possibly take the house, Senate is already red. Likely control of all 3 chambers. Our systems of checks and balances likely won’t survive the next 2 years.

    The man has outright said he would be a dictator on day one and would make his enemies pay.

    1776-2024. RIP America’s experiment in democracy.

      Time for people to learn to fight the system outside of elections. Strikes, protests, mutual aid, propaganda/education, and, last resort, guns.

    The last time they were in charge they didn’t have any plans and couldn’t come up with any.

    Now they have a playbook to follow.

    I’d say it’s 100% likely.

    This is the guy who tried, and partially succeeded, to ban Muslims after all.

    There is a small chance the bit T’s ego leads him away from being told what to do, and following plans.

        So far, he did - but just hoping maybe whatever blackmail P has on T won’t work any more … as he’s got the votes (for the last time), also it seems mud just doesn’t stick as more was revealed about his past deals with women and other dodgy business. They both follow the recipe book from 1930s germany, but that doesn’t lead to peace.

          Agreed, Putin has kompromat on Trump. I hope you’re right but not holding my breath
