'Donald will burn everything down' if Republicans turn their backs on him: Mary Trump

51. That all seems extremely likely. I've been mostly expecting

that the perfect storm for the blood-red tsunami would fail to form and eventually mostly dissipate. Again. Eventually.

And now what comes next...?

Of course, tRump was never the whole, and he's never been the leader of the whole. Various RW powers. including RW plutocrats and the religious right, had decided democracy needed to go long before populist mania took control from them by elevating a depraved tRump. They've been accelerating their visible attacks on government since the 1990s into this century and have been able to use trumpist chaos to create enormous successes for themselves.

Why would they stop?

As of now, they have their own enormous personal powers (and are far wealthier than ever), have installed a supermajority on SCOTUS, and have powerful agents in governments at all levels -- and in control of many, plus the nation is still reeling under a fair amount of desirable, revolution-enabling chaos. And the MAGAs' radicalized, even nihilistic populist mania, far slower to ebb than to explode, means they will continue to be very grave threat and weapon for some time. I

So, we carry on. This election puts the Republicans farther from being able to call a constitutional convention to burn up our 1788 Constitution, but they have SCOTUS. I worry that America may be lulled into believing the GOP has regained its senses and the big threat is past. I'm wondering if SCOTUS will back off a bit on its aggressive RW judicial overthrow of what we've built over the past 230+ years to help lull the people or bull ahead like the anti-democracy extremists they are. Best clueless guess, the latter... It's unlikely we'll have the ability this term to re-form the high court, i.e., stop them.
