I’ve just finished an inventory of all of the actions undermining the Pillars Of American Democracy. These actions demonstrate how Trump can act by decree, with impunity and no guardrails or comeback.
It is getting less likely by that day that courts will be able to prevent his excesses especially given the lack of leadership in Defense of Democracy (rather than defence of the Democrats).
Not to mention the successful campaign by the Trump cult to terrify Americans on a personal level - the hordes of illegal immigrants came here to rape "our women" and kill us, Dubya Bush's declaration that Muslims "hate our freedoms," that the Democratic party is made up of child molesters, and that the pro-choice movement is about murdering babies, it's about fomenting unreasonable fears and then ginning them up as a tactic to control people's minds. Having done this, the paranoia and anger become schemas impossible to reason away. The Trump cult will go down with the ship.

Bill Clinton was a triangulating neoliberal fool.
