Trump has been president for 5 years now, I'll call that the timeline, since little substantive action was taken during the Biden administration to bolt down small-r republican institutions due to inaction in Congress and DOJ. He's about where Putin was in 2004, farther along in some areas, less in others.

We'd be utterly screwed if they actually knew what they were doing.
