Why Trump Isn't Joking About Canceling Midterms: Congressman

[Dave says]

25. Sliding toward competitive authoritarianism

Trump also has the SCOTUS looking after him on rulings. Meaning they have reversed strong appeals court rulings in Trump’s favor. He counts on this. We’ll see what happens with the tariffs ruling.

If SCOTUS reverses a ruling, I guess you can blame them, but I don’t. It’s Trump’s team that argues their case. It’s all on Trump.

Things the Trump regime has done on the road to fascism, wether lawful or not (remember I’m at a doc, so can’t research):

— pressured universities to drop DEI initiatives
— pressured universities to fire professors that don’t tow the rightwing line
— sequestered and ordered national guard in our cities to quell non-existent chaos
— ordered are armed forces to do the same
— appointed Musk and funded the DOGE even though as the executive he had no authority to do so
— empowered DOGE and others to dismantle a lot of the civil service system, ncluding firings and sequestration of duly appropriated funding
— ICE with a $40b budget

Gotta go, infusion done, doc to talk to me about results of previous tests. Maybe I’ll be back to continue the list of things Dave Does Not Like.
