Democrats Must ‘Show Boldness, Not Timidity’ For 2020 Win, Says Lichtman...

If this guy is right America is already lost. If after all Trump has done he can still hold onto the office,  there's just no saving the republic, we will be a dictatorship.  Of course there will be screaming and yelling and even resistance, but the rule of law will be over and done,  the courts will lose their power and the executive will have the last word on everything.  Meaning that over time he will eviscerate the opposition.  It doesn't happen over night, it happens little by little as he consolidates power and mows down his opposition. Eventually he becomes strong enough to simply do away with even the smallest appearance of being accountable to anyone.  Then, like other dictators before him, he gets to express his paranoia and goes after his own, thinking they have too much power or are too popular or too wealthy, on and on.



Even worse, political hacks who have his ear,  get plum appointments and they appoint others, all of whom will have super powers to do whatever they like with anyone unfortunate enough to get their attention. I, sincerely doubt Republicans realize what they are doing and I'm very sure they are not going to like the results either.
