“What did they expect?” is kind of a misleading question.
The people who supported them didn’t expect something very specific. They expected to own the libs. They expected people they resented to suffer. The expected the world to burn. It wasn’t about specifics.

The “methods for doing so” are (1) getting two thirds of Congress and three fourths of the states to repeal the 22nd Amendment and (2) declaring himself king.
That’s it.
Stop treating this despotic bullshit as if it’s some worthwhile thought experiment we have to consider as legitimate.

President Trump did not rule out the possibility of seeking a third term in the White House, which is prohibited by the Constitution under the 22nd Amendment, saying in an exclusive interview with NBC News that there were methods for doing so and clarifying that he was “not joking.”

President Donald Trump said in a Sunday-morning phone call that he was “not joking” about a third term, adding that “it is far too early to think about it.”

Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything we’ve seen in this country in a very long time.
Video of the international student at Tufts being arrested by "federal authorities" in Massachusetts has been released and it's terrifying.
They're not even uniformed officers. Just secret police thugs in hoodies and masks.

I keep thinking about the Matthew Desmond figure on how much it would cost to pull Americans out of poverty: ~175 billion. The 148 billion Musk is reported to have lost could have made SO MANY LIVES BETTER. Instead it's evaporated into the ether of him being a hateful dick, loathed by millions.
It's probably premature to suggest Musk is cooked but I wrote about the dangerous game he's playing. how the protests are working, how people are mad, and how you can really see the contours of how the whole thing could collapse for him www.theatlantic.com/technology/a...

i’m sorry, i’m tired of this shit. there was no pronoun policing. i have encountered exactly three or four land acknowledgments in like ten years, and the most you’ll hear about “intersectionality” is in liberal nonprofits. this is just freefloating resentment masquerading as analysis.
Elissa Slotkin told Tim Alberta why her response to Trump's joint address did not touch on a laundry list of priorities from various advocacy groups.

It’s almost like these people were in the MCU Blip during Trump’s *first* term.
Laid-off IRS employee said he had voted for Trump: "I thought that someone with his business acumen would have come in with a fine-tooth comb and actually found it instead of coming in with a wrecking ball and destroying people’s lives for no reason."
