(12,712 posts)All she has to do is look at any country that is run by a dictator and that should answer the question.
The GOP CONTROLS the Senate, (I mean the R's are not serving in the capacity that they were elected for), the courts are being stacked and stuffed like there's no tomorrow and Trump CONTROLS the entire Executive branch. He has the DOJ in his own pocket and all the agencies he has made appointments to are run by people who are either inept or adversarial, (or both) to their agency.
A dictator can do whatever a dictator wants to do. That's how he continues this criminal activity and why he will be ramping up into full gear with the GOP doing everything they can to assist him since they are completely complicit and out to preserve an irrelevant party that would go the way of the Dodo if they don't take over.

(31,893 posts)from the article cited in the OP:
Even if a campaign were breaking rules by paying exorbitant rates, theres not a lot anyone could do about it right now. The FEC, which examines such things, cannot take any official commission action unless at least four of its six commissioners vote to do so. Since Trump took office, three of the FECs commissioners have left their posts. Their seatswhich demand presidential appointments and Senate confirmationshave yet to be filled.
They cant even meet without four members, because four is a quorum, said Ann Ravel, a Democrat who left her post as a commissioner in March 2017. They cannot ask the general counsels office to investigate anything. So if a complaint comes in, it will just sit there.
Just another instance of trump dismantling our government.

But the assholes think Dems play nice and obey the rules as the right-wing assholes change the rules
If it was not for Covid 19 I wonder would it still be peaceful?
