Of course not.
It’s not as if Trump is difficult to figure out or predict.
All you have to do really is keep in mind the fact that he has the emotional development of a spoiled toddler.
So all you have to do is ask yourself, for instance, “Would a spoiled toddler share power with Congress?”
And the answer is “No.”
It’s not as if Trump is difficult to figure out or predict.
Exactly. He grabs them by the pussy. He is doing the same with the country. This video is a decent prediction of how it will unfold. Of course he has a lot of instruction from the far right folks, because he is too stupid.
That’s why it blows my mind how so many republicans are helping him, regular people and politicians alike. Like, y’all know you’re not getting a slice of the pie right? In the end he’ll only want the ones that are useful, not the ones that are loyal. Loyalty only goes so far when you aren’t useful anymore.
By the time the average schmoe makes it Congress they’ve been a big shot for years. They were a star in high school, important at college, had their pick of jobs after graduating, and were hand picked by The Establishment to run for office. They can’t comprehend that Trump doesn’t care about any of that.
It’s kinda the same thing as talking to my MAGA father. Saying “you know he doesn’t give a shit about you, right?” Always falls on deaf ears.

I never understood fascism until Trump came in. It works not because he gives orders, but because others *want to give him the power.
It’s early stage and anyone that follows his orders are either fascist too or idiots. Fast-forward 10 years, if the GOP still haven’t been edged out it will be an automatic felony and mandatory jail time to disobey a President.
I’m saying they don’t just “follow” if ordered. Fascism comes about because people want to do it. They want to give their power and support to the leader. They implement what the direction is without being given an order.
I’ve had this exact discussion with my father. We both think it’s absurdly short sighted for the SCOTUS to give Trump immunity like they did, even if they reserve the right to define what is in bounds. The moment he has unlimited power, they’re toast.
The moment he has unlimited power,
He already does. What enforcement mechanism does the Supreme Court have? None.
If Trump decides he wants to start ignoring the Supreme Court tomorrow, what the hell are they going to do about it? Especially if Congress is on his side?
Biden pretty much already went through this dance with student debt relief. Trump will throw a dozen things at the wall all at once in the hope just one thing sticks. There’s only so many judges and hours in the day, so just like with the media he’ll overwhelm the system. Until a judge rules on it, Trump and the whole of the GOP considers his every action legal.
I’m surprised he pardoned the Jan 6 people. I thought he would let them hang because their usefulness was done. The fact that he didn’t suggests he wants something more from them.
“may not want”?
lol
has already blatantly and repeatedly stepped on congress’ toes and assumed much of their powers. he isn’t sharing and no, he doesn’t ‘want to’ either.
this should be infuriating to every member of congress, regardless of party…
so… wutcha gunna do about it, dear members of congress? stop him? or be a willing and liable accomplice who are already forgotten by the asshole in chief now that he literally doesn’t need you anymore.

FTFY
Republicans in Congress won’t complain until they notice they’re no longer worth bribing.
