It's cute how so many in the comments think the legal checks will prevent this. They don't care about the law or the Constitution in the same way they don't care about optics, hypocrisy, decorum, or process. People keep viewing this through the lense of American democracy. None of that matters to fascists.
-
Yeah, people don't seem to truly understand this, and I fear it will take something extreme before they do... And it's likely already too late now, let alone by then.
-
They care about the law the same way the nazi's cared about the law until the night of the long knives. I suspect their mass deportation plan is really them gearing up for the night of the long knives 2.0.

Night of broken glass comes first.
Wait for them to loot and pillage “immigrant” owned businesses.

We do not call it Reichskristallnacht anymore. We call it Novemberprogrome.

After four years of them being in power, he'll probably just be able to...not leave, regardless of any election. Who would stop him?
-
Presumably someone with better aim than the last shooter.
I’d be very careful as a wannabe dictator in a land with this many guns. The next four years are going to be tense for everyone.
-
Trump even said he shouldn't have left in 2020. So think that is the plan already.
-
The constitution says he's no longer president Jan 20.
-
The Constitution is just a piece of paper unless someone enforces it.

In the end, the country isn't a democracy. It's a complicated system with complicated interactions.
It's really not impossible that a democracy turns into fascism.
-
Thought about that regarding the current events in Germany. If people democratically vote for fascism, that's still a democratic vote. Only the outcome might be less democratic (or not at all) but at least once people choose this path willingly, following democratic rules.
At the end it's perfectly legal to do this. The question is more if it's good or bad. It maybe even stupid. But here we are.
-
But then we would not be a democracy and being a democracy is written into the constitution.
-
True, never looked into the protective mechanisms in our constitution. But I bet there is a way to change these mechanisms, once you are the reigning political power.
Will have to research on that.

I can't like this comment enough!!! When will we learn they DON'T PLAY BY THE RULES. If the magats want this to pass, they will manipulate, intimidate, bend, or break the rules to do it. This is how coups happen. They don't sit down and ask nicely, they just DO IT and back it up with military force if they have to.
-
They care so little they're trying to get an amendment passed... wait.
