This is a nice simple explainer of what Trump will do if he returns to power, with the implication that it will be used to usher in an authoritarian government that rounds up immigrants, gives him unchecked power, and prosecutes political opponents www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Can we at least that our institutions, our laws, our Constitution, and our experts are massively incapable of even slowing him and his droogs down?

remember this, White Boys™️, you will not be tall and fit enough to pass, but you will be sacrificed to die for their elites. The same class structure will be in place, but with less humanity. in the end, the colour of your eyes, and the name of your great grandmother will be enough to doom you.

OTOH, Trump is an elderly, overweight man with a sedentary lifestyle, alleged poor diet, a tendency to empurpling rage, and a probable history of substance abuse. The chances are improving all the time that he (as opposed to the far right in general) may cease to be a problem at any moment.

If I focus on getting my steps in today, maybe this will all go away.

If he is elected and just muddles through and is ineffectual, there will be a lot of cynical NRO types saying "see we told you so" and nice thinking people will be like "eating all of those discarded syringes in the alley didn't kill us this time, but it was still dumb."

During his last administration, he left vast numbers of government offices unfilled because of his organizational incompetence. Where’s he gonna find all these “loyalists” this time? Released Jan 6 inmates? Meet the new CIA chief, Jacob Chansley

I feel these are too neutrally stated. Voters out of the loop may think many look positive or are the prerogative of the president. Eg, "agencies under presidential control" should really mean subvert agencies maintaining function of the system for all and turn them only towards Trump's benefit

Every time somebody says “why is it when Repubs are president they’re unstoppable god kings but when Dems are in charge the parliamentarian’s roommate’s dog can stop anything good” people absolutely blast them in the replies. Just call them stupid, lefty idiots. But there’s 2 of these posts a week.

Do people really think that most of these things are trumps ideas? Other than the ones that involve prosecuting the Biden’s. Most of this crap is long time Republican wish list crap. Firing or downgrading civil servants? Long time gop dream. Please some reporter ask trump how the Gov. works.
