The main thing you need to worry about in that case is the battery. It’s useful to have a built in UPS, but definitely keep an eye on it, especially after keeping it plugged in for long periods of time.

You can fake it by setting your oven to the lowest temperature and leaving the oven door slightly cracked. I did it last winter with some flank steak and it turned out great.

Because fucking with time travel can affect your existence, but meanwhile, present actions only affect people in the future.
It’s the standard “I only care when it affects me personally” thought process.

He’s lying. He’s stupid, but he’s not literally that stupid.
Yas Trump ever been known to admit that he was wrong about literally anything in his life?

No he doesn’t. He knows it’s fake, but he’s lying on purpose so that he can further his agenda to deport anyone he doesn’t like to a concentration/death camp.

More generally, the founders wrote the constitution as if every leader will act in good faith. That has proven to be a bad idea, but also how do you even account for that? Their idea was a system of checks and balances, but that failed to account for when one party has control over every branch, and for when one branch goes rogue and starts ignoring the other two branches, as we are seeing now with the executive.
IMO, limiting power (money in the case of a capitalistic society) is the only way. The founders had the right idea with the limitation of power, but they didn’t take that idea to the economic side of things. Force all corporations to be worker owned coops and have a hard wealth cap of $50 million by taxing anything over at a rate of 100%.
