19. So they hire Elon Musk to count the votes (figuratively)

There's a hue and cry
Judge rules against Trump
Trump says "FU, judge!!"
Judge mumbles "contempt of court..."
Trump yells "Immunity!!! And I pardon everyone else. FU, judge!!"

The AG of the country is exposing victims and protecting rich pedophiles.
The President's private army ICE is murdering people and the FBI will not investigate nor allow others to investigate.
The President pardoned people who attacked the Capitol in an insurrection.
etc

Trump knows his support is eroding.
The house just passed a bill to try to thwart people from voting they don't want voting.
They're gerrymandering and doing everything they can to cling to power.

Expecting Trump to play nice under those circumstances with his track record seems naïve.
I think they'll double down and just get more ruthless.
When he breaks the law, who are you going to call? DoJ? FBI? Get a court order he'll defy?
No way the GOP will allow impeachment.
American democracy is on thin ice.
I'm worried.
