So he's basically killing democracy in his country if he wins the election.
I mean, once he wins, because I'm very pessimistic.
I think the silver lining is that he might be too incompetent to actually pull it off, like last time he obviously tried it. Unfortunately, the US judicial or whatever system is also too incompetent to punish him so I guess he just gets to try it again and again until it works.
So if it doesn't happen soon, it's gonna happen eventually.
If it's not him, it will be some other clown. The GQP got to the position it is in even when it wasn't brainwashing personality cult members and it wast that bad, now it is and all it takes is a non-ideal candidate on the democratic side to let them win. Democracy in the US can no longer be retained through the popular vote.
The fifth column of generational oligarchs is just trying to find its next figurehead Hitler to take leadership and if it fails, to take the fall while they sink back into obscurity to prepare for the next round.
