A few years ago this would've sounded insane, today not so much. Some of you may have seen Bill Maher's closing remarks on Friday, they were chilling to say the least.
Basically what he said is that when you switch over to a dictatorship, it still has the appearance of a democracy. Showed pictures of Russia and North Korea, how they still technically had a "parliament" but obviously they're just for show.
I realize some people here indeed still think this is a crazy thought. But how far have we already gone?
The checks and balances of our 3 branches no longer exist. The President is impeached and witnesses aren't even allowed at the "trial".
The President is instructing the DOJ to do his bidding, whether it's sending Guiliani to dig up dirt on Biden or trying to lessen Roger Stone's sentence.
Say Trump loses the election but refuses to leave office, siting voting "irregularities".
What happens next? What do we have in place to stop him?
