  Correct to be scared imo. And I reckon things will get worse before they get better. Distinct possibility that that creep Vance will end up in the White House before term’s end - and that’s a horrifying possibility.

    He’s more clever than Trump BUT does not have the same gravitas and cult following. There’s still the hope that senate and congress will flip blue during the midterms, which means nothing new gets passed and impeachment can proceed (provided enough dems grow a spine).

      when trump dies his blackmailing dies with him, the new leadership might lose control of the gop politicians and thus the politicians will vote against leadership

      so how would evil keep power

      congress no longer sits, no legislation, only orders

      kind of like hitler burning the reichstag ( not literally )

      would the gop do it? maybe

        GOP would definitely try and do it, but I would hope the cult turns on them. We’ll have to wait and see I guess.

        Yeah, dang you’re right. That is definitely not the correct word.
