Trump is a goddam hero who is going to save America from collapse. We are all waiting for 20 January when he takes office. I thought Biden was alright as President before he started to go ga ga and then pardoned the felon Hunter - for one thing he was a committed Catholic.

I feel he will push limits to get people scared. Then come back and not do somethings and say See I'm doing good with the hope his cult followers will overlook all the bad he push through. I'm gonna cut the Steel deal People cry wtf He doesn't cut the Steel deal see I'm good They believe he's a god

Agreed, but once it happens, it's too late. It could take decades to win back international trust, and even if we do, it will likely never be as strong. And, once his popularity plummets, will it change his behavior? History shows that like a child, he'll get worse.

The cyclone of abuse… Love bomb Honeymoon Manipulate Devalue Repeat all steps to keep target trauma bonded until the final discard. Final discard is achieved when the target is no long required or can no longer be manipulated.

Here’s the thing….corporations want tax cuts and GOP politicians want to be re-elected. They are all in with whatever Trump wants to do. His bully tactics have worked and there is no turning back.

I remember starting a new job as a contractor working at an Air Force base right around the time Trump was elected the first time. In early 2017, we all had to listen to our SES talk about how Trump was "laser focused on the needs of the Air Force." It was all I could do to not roll my eyes.

Look, Republicans can loathe Trump as a person as much as they want, but as long as they're too scared of Putin to defy Trump in any meaningful way, it doesn't matter. They'll make a big loud empty kabuki show of "independence" and then when it comes time to act they'll knuckle under as always.

I respectfully disagree, to a point. I don't think the public's view of Trump will change much. Look at his handling of COVID. His lies and incompetence led to the death of hundreds of thousands of Americans. That should have been disqualifying in and of itself, regardless of politics.

Memory holed, and revisionist history…. They seriously believe they were better off four years ago. He got a pass on the economy, because, well you know, it was COVID’s fault. Even tho it was heading into the shitter prior to pandemic,that he lied about to us, then took no responsibility AT ALL FOR

Agree he basically had a normal economy for only two years and not enough time to mess it up But overall with Covid there is a lot of blame to go around. Strangely the best thing he did was Op Warp Speed he now disavows which is sad. It was a great accomplishment

Excellent read and hopeful with your statement..”History has shown us that no leader is immune to accountability, no matter how insulated they may seem”. As for the “American people…withdrawing support when…evident that his admin poses a threat to democracy itself”, there is plenty now & they didn’t

I am more concerned with the possibility of an Article 5 convention to rewrite the Constitution. I believe that is the reason they keep trying to sell the "Trump has a mandate" lie more than any other!

Unfortunately, the miscreants that comprise the GOP, coupled with the compromised media, will continue to enable & prop him up. That tangerine tyrant will never suffer the consequences he deserves. That’s why we’re in this disastrous situation. #TraitorTrump #GOPmobsters

200,000 + died from covid because of his incompetence during his first watch. How many are going to die this time? He should immediately be arrested after being inaugurated. He will lie while pledging allegiance to the constitution w/ his hand on a Bible.

The biggest difference between 2016 Trump and 2024 Trump is that in 2016, he was fighting against the allegation that he was a Russian Asset. Now, he doesn't seem to care how obvious it is that he is indeed a Russian Asset. Picks Tulsi for DNI, Tucker's buddy, Ukraine Peace deal really favors Putin

The real reason trump wants to end wars, is bcz wars r messy. He is too lazy & coward to take the responsibilities of Commander-in-Chief. It means spend long periods in the Situation Room & the effort to command over the Military. Too much work & effort which he refuses to invest for the nation

There’s a bird flu epidemic and 10M chickens nationwide have been killed in the last few months. Some humans have been infected. They’re watching to see if it jumps from human to human. Another pandemic? Oh did I say it has a 50% death rate.

Adam can you explain please the strategy of waiting until the honeymoon is over to 14.3 him vs protecting US citizens by doing it before Jan 20? Hitler was an idiot yet he still murdered millions & non-MAGA Rs like you might not be around if he purged you like Hitler did within his own party

You’re definitely not alone. I cannot shake it: so trump’s told us what he’s gonna do, he’s done it before, but Congress is gonna wait until he actually does it *again* to take action? It may be too late by then, he’ll just adjourn Congress or arrest everyone like Adam

His ego won't allow him to take a measured approach. He could have waited on his cabinet announcements and likely would have had more success in getting them through but he had to rub it in the libs faces right away 1/2

Good article! We can hope that this time Trump's followers realize their mistake - I wouldn't bet on it though. And what possibilities for civil justice will there be under Trump? But the minute Trump's sworn in he's a military man and can be tried for crimes against the constitution, right?

Although true, what is going to stop him? I’m ready to expect the unexpected. Pretty much a free for all unless Congress stands up and I him. If not them, the courts and we all know that trail ends w SCOTUS. Will the military stand up to tRump? I’d like to think so. 🤷‍♀️

His base stood with him even after 1/6. They stood with him for all the lies. They bought all the merch, fell for all the cons. Trump is like Obi-Wan Kenobi... "these are not the droids you're looking for"... and they believe him. Trump’s base will never abandon him and the GOP follows like puppies.

Honeymoon? The scenario here is the groom has tried to screw all the bridesmaids and overturned the wedding cake and the buffet. Everyone's going to want an annullment before the bouquet gets tossed!

Wish I could believe this. Trump’s honeymoon has lasted since 2015 with the ruling minority of Americans. Each new outrage is met by strengthening, not weakening, of his support. GOP shows no spine in the face of it. Senator Collins believes he’s learned his lesson.

There's reason to hope that the Constitution's "separation of powers" will work. The Senate appears to have stood up to the Gaetz nomination. With a narrow majority in the Senate, it will take only 3-4 Republicans to frustrate Trump and his MAGA Party's reckless autocratic plans.

The 'normal' representatives in Congress must stand up and warn Trump that if he attempts to use a fake reason to institute Martial Law against the American people, they will resist him with everything they have. STAND UP! We will not tolerate a dictatorship. 💪👊

"History has shown us that no leader is immune to accountability, no matter how insulated they may seem. Trump’s tenure will not defy this truth." I wish I had your optimism.

I'd like to believe that this will be true. My concern is that, without competent people to limit Trump's worst instincts, there will be events that are difficult to imagine in our country - for example an armed response against protestors.... Autocrats want power... forever.

Dude, no one is waking up to a damn thing. You know Congress is driven primarily by greed, wealth and deception. It feeds your ego and every person you are associated. Trump has no "Good Will". He is a harbinger of all that is contrary to "Good Will". I'm so fed up with complaints and empty words.

It'll be quietly bit late by then, I'm afraid. They've got congress and SCOTUS. You've had your last election, you know that right? There'll be some spurious "election fraud" reason to "postpone" them and that will be that. Nothing short of a military coup or civil war will stop what's coming.

I think his followers are finally starting to realize what kind of monster they've unleashed. With doing away with IEPs in schools, and other programs that help them to exist, theyll wake up soon enough.

Don't forget what's happening at MSNBC and CNN too. They're kissing orange ass as well. It's quite sickening according to ALL reliable sources(I've stopped watching for obvious reasons). Hopefully they'll ALL get what's coming to them ( lowest ratings EVER, cancelations)!!!

Dear Representative Kinzinger- the truth, whole truth and only the truth. Imagine if they get their way and axe out $$ for CDC; NIH the whole world will start screaming. Never mind- you know even better than I the harm they will do 😫

I can think of good ways to use those words together. How about “T*ump ran out of money and can only buy his extra-long ties from Goodwill” or “I found these gold T*ump sneakers for 50 cents at Goodwill.”

We’ll see soon! I don’t think Trump really has the brains and maxi to pull off his or maybe it the Project 2025’s authoritarian agenda. Seems like Trump is pretty much inept at most things, not sure about the 2025 people? It seems likely that Trump will blow their plan as well! We should know soon!

I think they are letting him pick the world's least competent cabinet in order to make it seem like the best decision ever when they slap him with the 25th and put him in a home for "his own safety". The kids get the loot, the techbros get the country, nd we all get screwed.

He'll either resign (for health reasons?) or be removed, and when Vance takes over, he will pardon Moosolini. The "Supreme" Court will rule that the pardons cover state crimes as well.

It’s not rational thinking that put this guy back in charge. That’s the problem. In a cult people will literally kill themselves to follow their leader. Learning from mistakes is not part of their lives. Until their at death's door and say "please tell my kids to get vaccinated" as an example.

I sat in a hospital with my daughter in laws mom in Feb 2022, as her husband was dying. Conspiracy theorist and anti-vaxxer maga deluxe. NOTHING was going to change her mind. And yes he died, unvaxxed😷😷😷😷😷

We need to do more then wring our hands and feel powerless. We The People need to realize we are what keeps this country running. If we protest in mass and all call in ‘sick’(of the Nazis) we will see that only we empower them & we can take that power away.

That honeymoon happened in 2016, we know how this movie will go. His 2nd term will start in the middle half of the movie when everything escalates. We will see how many can cope, fight back, & survive. I guess it is our turn as a nation to go thru a turmoil like other nations are. Who’ll win 🇷🇺 or 🇺🇸

He Is a clear and present danger, and he is ineligible to be president because he incited an insurrection and yet Garland is not arresting him. No other country on earth would let this arsonist into the White House to torch our democracy.

What would the American people “withdrawing their support” look like? What impact would that have? It seems to me he only needed enough support to get elected. Now that’s over and the voters can’t touch him.

Y'all act like they'll actually replace him with someone better. The plan was ALWAYS to dump him as soon as they won the WH. They have everything they need now to destroy us. They will metaphorically "shoot the Trojan horse" and replace him with worse. Watch and see.

Trump is not a smart person. He’s gotten by on luck and the inheritance of millions. His incompetence is showing again in his unserious, unqualified and insulting cabinet picks.

He’s mentally devolving from Dementia/Alzheimer’s: Both parents, an uncle, his old sister all died from 1 of these mentally disabling diseases. It’s why maga projected senility on Biden when everyone knows he has a lifelong stutter; to distract from trump’s very real & obvious mental decline.

You did nothing wrong. Would you accept a pardon anyhow -because Trump’s people are out for vengeance His people want to retain the immense power they have gained while he lays comatose

It will be interesting to see if Trump's honeymoon lasts as long as Starmers did Starmers government honeymoon lasted for about four weeks before his and his associates lies began to come home to roost Michelle Barnier in France has faired even worse He has had to resign due to no confidence vote

I agree with this, but... "they will not hesitate to withdraw their support when it becomes evident that his administration poses a threat to democracy itself." I'm not sure about this. They elected him when he already told them he plans to shred the Constitution.
