    I wouldn’t give Trump that much credit (yet), the damage done by Reagan was far greater (disregarding social/demographic, which I mostly blame the attention industry of). But we’ll see how much damage he does this time, maybe he “trumps” Reagan…

      He’s speaking openly about imprisoning political opponents and even members of his own party that didn’t bend the knee. And now the Courts he packed are backing up his claims to absolute immunity.

      He even said people will no longer “need to vote” after he’s done.

      The best hope for America right now is an aneurysm.

        Yeah definitely, it could escalate to a complete shit-show unfortunately, as they even got senate and house as well… I’m lucky currently that I’m european, not that politics is heading in the right direction, but we’re not yet at autocratic level as could happen in the USA…
