10. Trump will say anything and do anything to sieze more power

If the courts become a serious obstacle he will ignore them or destroy those who dare defy him.

What mechanism can enforce court decisions?

The so-called "Justice" Dept and the FBI are fast becoming his personal tools of vengeance, and the head of our military is his eager servant.

Fascism is upon us.

With few exceptions, congressional Republicans are in lockstep with this dictator.
