As someone who studies government, I want to say as clearly as possible that Trump 2.0 will not be the disorganized shitshow that the first term was. They have a credible plan to govern in an explicitly authoritarian model.

I recall pretty consistent stories that Trump was, for the first couple of years, genuinely scared he was fucked by everything his gang was advising him to do. He was actually hesitant. But by the end he began to feel being president makes you invincible and nobody can stop you.

To understand the danger, just imagine who is left who still enthusiastically wants to work for him.

While Trump has very noticeably declined cognitively, his advisors, his authoritarian white-supremacist advisors, they are as capable as ever.

This, 1,000X. We were spared the worst of it because it was disorganized. But his sycophants have formulated plans and just as importantly figured out how to get him to go along with them. "Trust us, this will get rid of the brown people," etc. knowing that he cares nothing about the details.

Given what I've seen of the fear-mongering about Biden on the left, and what we know of it on the right, I think this is what we have to get out there. Fear from the center. Hate it, but here we are.

The thought of another pandemic happening under Trump 2.0 is too awful to even contemplate

And yet on this very site people currently hold and express the sincerely held believe that the difference between a Biden Administration and a Trump Administration would be "mean tweets from the POTUS account"...

Take a breath, buddy. As someone who studies government, maybe you should find something else to do with your time. Trump will be the same shitshow in his second term as he was in his first. You can relax.
