    And do you think there will be a single Republican willing to do anything about it?

    Mark my words, they will vote 100% in lockstep every single time. And if what Trump is doing is illegal (like that matters anyway), they’ll just write legislation to make it legal. Not a single one of them is going to even think about criticizing him, out of fear of either violence, political suicide, or both.

    The government will be crammed with unqualified hacks from top to bottom. The corruption will be open and blatant.

    And every single Republican senator will vote to confirm. Every single time.

    RFK in charge of healthcare. Musk in charge of spending. Aileen cannon is either getting the AG job or a Supreme Court seat. Whichever one she doesn’t get, Alina Hobba gets. Steve Bannon gets pardoned and gets communications director. Alex Jones is probably going to crawl out from whatever rock he crawled under too.

    They’ll all get jobs. The Senate will confirm them all. And far-right conspiracy theories will become official US policy.

      Hell, why should he care if any of it is legal or not? Him being inaugurated after inciting an insurrection is a direct violation of the constitution. His entire second presidency will be illegal.
