The inevitable Constitutional crisis

Authoritarians do not and cannot work within the framework of a constitution or other institutional guardrails. They inevitably force a constitutional crisis that is either acquiesced to or becomes a rallying cry for the opposition and leads to the authoritarian's downfall. Which will it be? I don't believe Trump is capable of masterminding a serious governmental takeover, especially considering his obvious mental health decline, but I do believe that there are enough craven ideologues in his orbit, and soon his cabinet, that are capable of damaging even the most established institutional safeguards if not eliminating them completely. Examples of openly discussed targets are the EPA, the Department of Education, and the military. Since the courts refused to prosecute Trump's past crimes, he is completely free to go even further this time around. What can we expect? The inevitable constitutional crisis in my opinion. It's just a matter of when and which institutions will stand, and which institutions will fall. Hang on. This ride is going to be bumpy.
