In reply to the discussion: Trump just gave away the reason for tariffs today [View all]Martin Eden
(14,583 posts)Corporations will lobby for relief, and will comply with his demads on bended knee. Tariffs are a means of coercion, just as he has pressured universities and law firms.
The Felon plans to remain in office as long as he wants. He's itching to invoke the Insurrection Act and declare martial law.
As protests grow, Proud Boys and their ilk will incite violence. The Felon will do what he wanted to do during the George Floyd protests -- use the military to shoot protesters.
Do not underestimate what The Felon will do, or try to do. The scenario in the previous paragraph could be orchestrated in the run-up to the 2026 midterm elections, which would then be canceled or controlled with the iron fist of a dictator and his Republican cohorts who are equally determined not to lose their House and Senate majorities.
They have already shown an utter disregard for American institutions, our Constitutional rule of law, and truth.
Do you really think that once they've thrown their lot in with a dictator-- which they have already done -- that there is a line they will not cross?
I'm not saying they will succeed.
I'm saying they must be stopped.
