Do you believe it would signal the true end to American democracy? Do you believe there would be no more paths for opposition victory if such a thing would take place?

Yes, he is in protection mode and will burn this country to the ground to protect himself.

I know they are saying it. I'm asking if CE believes there would be meaningful prevention if Trump wins.

There's no meaningful prevention now. Trump shouldn't even be on the ballot.

Everything is set in place for America to become a Christian Theocracy. Project 2025 is not fearmongering. It's in place and just waiting for Trump to win.

The GOP would get their dictatorship. And eventually it would fall. But the damage would be enormous.

For example, look at what the Nazis did with just 12 years in power.

They're telling you in plain English what it would mean. They're showing you in their actions what it would mean.
You may not be ready to accept the reality of it, (which I totally understand), but there's no question as to what this country would look like if Trump won. Which is why he won't.

the moment Trump takes power, he is absolutely going on a revenge spree on everyone he thinks "wronged him"

we're talking armed raids on any news organization that reported anything bad about him or politicians that disagreed
not to mention all the MAGA folk who will feel emboldened to "take matters into their own hands", followed by him probably pardoning as many as he can get away with

According to arguments that Trump's lawyers have made, and which conservative nut jobs on the supreme court may pretend to take seriously in order to delay Trump's criminal trials, it would be perfectly legal for Biden to have Trump assassinated.

Yes, 100%. There would be nothing else left to stop Trump and Republicans from turning this country into a fascist Christian theocracy.

It wouldn't be forever. Eventually the regime Trump starts would fall. No government lasts forever.

But think of how much suffering and death the country would go through in that time. As someone who doesn't have the financial means to leave the country and is part of multiple minority groups that the MAGA crowd would love to see dead, I know with almost complete certainly that I wouldn't survive to see the end of the regime should it actually come to pass.

Deep down inside I believe he'll never live long enough to sit at that desk again, even if he was declared the winner. (Because we already know he won't get more votes.)

He stole classified secrets from the government. You honestly don't think his days are numbered?

Yes. Dude hast literally promised to end the democratic process, our Cons., and to seek retribution against his "enemies"/undesirables.

It would likely resemble Hungarian's autocratic system

We'd replace one racist sack of shit with another.

Maybe he'd be better? They're both truly unhinged and equally hate their critics, so even though Kanye hasn't been as vocally "diverse" as Trump, I don't really have high expectations that he would only be a reprehensible sack of shit monster to the Jewish community of the U.S.

In their defense, while the American government is garbage at governing it is extremely good at killing people.

Except for Castro but Trump ain't Castro.

Those aren't handled by the same people.
