I honestly don't think it's possible.....Do I think Trump's DOJ can weaponize election law to make swing states borderline uncompetitive for the Democrats? Absolutely. Do I think Don Jr can still be considered a viable candidate in that environment? No. And I don't think elections are going to be suspended anytime soon either.I don’t think elections are how he intends them to acquire the position
It depends on what means he chooses to break the law and the constitution. If he simply refuses to vacate office at the end of his term, and all branches of the government have been filled with loyalists, who actually is going to remove or stop him?I honestly don't think it's possible.....Do I think Trump's DOJ can weaponize election law to make swing states borderline uncompetitive for the Democrats?

I honestly don't see why he would choose to do that and trigger the inevitable economic catastrophe it would cause (which is the answer to your question).It depends on what means he chooses to break the law and the constitution.

A conspiracy theory if ever I heard one.I don’t think elections are how he intends them to acquire the position
Too Drunk To Give a F*ck to be honest.Does he think they're the Kennedy's? I wonder if in time to come there will be a band named 'The Dead Trumps'

On that note, who won the 2020 election?A conspiracy theory if ever I heard one.

The problem is though how many times can we all go 'that will never happen' and be proved wrong. If you'd have predicted the events of January 6th you would have been told it was ridiculous.I honestly don't see why he would choose to do that and trigger the inevitable economic catastrophe it would cause (which is the answer to your question).
I think it’s a big mistake to wildly speculate about elections being suspended (for which there is pretty much no precedent or playbook in modern American history) when there have already been genuine attempts to interfere with the existing election architecture in the US.The problem is though how many times can we all go 'that will never happen' and be proved wrong.

He's in power again yet still banging on about stolen elections. He's ignoring due process and ignoring the supreme court while showing he couldn't care less about crashing the markets.
Is it really that big a leap to think he won't go quietly and gracefully at the end of his term?
That’s meOne for @Sky Blue Pete
‘And in his estate shall stand up a vile person, to whom they shall not give the honour of the kingdom: but he shall come in peaceably, and obtain the kingdom by flatteries.’
But it's also stuff you have to prepare for just in case. No point not wanting to be alarmist then having no plan when he actually tries to do it.I think it’s a big mistake to wildly speculate about elections being suspended (for which there is pretty much no precedent or playbook in modern American history) when there have already been genuine attempts to interfere with the existing election architecture in the US.
If you turn the ‘Trump is a dictator’ dial up to 11 before anything like that has even happened then you don’t leave yourself much room to manoeuvre if/when stuff gets really real.

Well you can really, you can do a Trump and dial it back down to 8 or 9 and say that was your plan all alongI think it’s a big mistake to wildly speculate about elections being suspended (for which there is pretty much no precedent or playbook in modern American history) when there have already been genuine attempts to interfere with the existing election architecture in the US.

Honestly, if the scenario in question is ‘Donald Trump suspends elections so he can install Don Jr as Lord Protector’ then I’m not sure you do.But it's also stuff you have to prepare for just in case. No point not wanting to be alarmist then having no plan when he actually tries to do it.
I see he now wants to throw US citizens in the torture prison in El Salvador, after already throwing in hundreds of innocent people. This after ignoring the court rulings that people are entitled to due process and a lawyer, and that one of the men they sent who they admitted wasn’t a criminal needed to be brought back.
Totally not a fascist though.
This one.Which man was sent who wasn't a criminal? Also, which US citizens are they wanting to throw in El Salvador prisons?
This one.
Trump has said he wants to throw ‘home grown’ US criminals into the El Salvador prisons.
He objectively isn’t a gang member. Though not surprised you’re repeating the lies coming from the WH on the subject.Kilmar Ábrego García is a member of the MS-13 gang in El Salvador, and entered the US illegally. The only reason he previously wasn't deported is because he was at risk of being murdered by another gang. With the new prisons and clean up that has been done in that country, he is unlikely to meet this fate now. There doesn't seem to be much desire for either country to put him on a plane back - which probably says a lot.
As for putting US criminals in jails in other countries, I don't know. Several countries have agreements to send prisoners abroad to other countries around the world, so I don't think it is that outrageous. A bigger problem for me is the reoffending rate from being in prison. I think it is even worse in the USA than the UK. It seems the system isn't really working and probably needs to be reviewed in general.

Even if he is, he’s entitled to due process at least. The way it’s worked, the state simply declares you a criminal and sends you off to a foreign prison. Do you not see anything dangerous about that?
