The truth is none of us have any idea what a Trump administration, Republican congress and conservative Supreme Court is capable of. Not even Trump voters.
That's why anyone paying attention is freaking out.
None of us could predict how the first Trump term would go but we all know how it ended. Even though a large part of the electorate wiped the year 2020 from their memory.
Trump hasn't gotten saner or less corrupt since he left office. Or more presidential. His cabinet picks prove that. As of right now that's all we know for sure about this aspiring dictator.
