Numerous House Democrats Praise Trump's Capture of Maduro: 'Venezuelans Deserve the Promise of Democracy'

The only thing holding Trump back is the constitution and federal judges but even then that isn't holding him back completely especially with the Supreme Court enabling him and also there isn't much of an opposition to him like there was in the first term which really held him back. In the book A Warning by Anonymous they were resisting his worst impulses and the book was actually a pretty good prediction on what his 2nd term would be like.

Trump is very similar to Bolsanaro who both attempted a coup to install themselves for another term but Trump doesn't want Brazil to prosecute him and wants to go after Maduro instead so Trump is motivated by ideological concerns & private business opportunities with the largest oil reserves.

Another thing is the United States has always had a peaceful transfer of power, an American President should be held to a higher standard as so called leader of the free world but Trump treats the Democrats or the "opposition party" very similar to dictators. Those actions have seen leaders replaced in coups for less than what Trump has done.
