      It’s not actually Trump that’s the biggest threat, it’s his supporters. And the Republican party that lets him do whatever he wants. That cult-like behavior dies with him (please, tonight on a hamberder). Vance sucks shit, but he in the past has said things against Trump, suggesting he’s just in his camp for the power, money and fame. And sadly, that’s the best case scenario in this failed democracy…

        Good news is the Republicans are varying levels of unhinged, so since Trump doesn’t actually care about policy they could become deadlocked again as they infight over how badly to screw up the country, probably with trying to muck up Medicare or the ACA again

          You’re assuming they’re still going to be allowed to make decisions.

          Everyone is expecting his government to still follow the established rules, but there’s very good reason to think those rules will be thrown out.

          The USA is dead.

      I think it’s that he’s really bad at the job. He can’t keep people who disagree - or don’t agree forcefully enough. He can’t take advice, he’s not that good at coming up with plans.
