They can't do anything without the approval of the President Of The United States.- Herr Trumpanzee, in reference to the rights of the individual states, 4/13/20.
Happy Monday everybody! What's that? You don't like Mondays? Well, in White House Land, it's a real special special day today, very special. It's April 20th, aka the birthday of a certain Trumpian role model from Austria, born on this day in 1889.
How far will Trump get? That's up to each and every one of us. He's certainly made it clear what he wants to be and where he wants to take this country. So have all of those Republican $enators who voted not to remove him from office when the chance was presented. There was no surprise in that, just as there can be no surprise when one puts Trump in the context of the persistent rightward drift of both major political parties over the last 50+ years and more. In that light, Trump not only has a goal, he is a goal. But, a goal for actual patriotic Americans? Choose. Voice your choice, one way and/or the other. Personally, I wouldn't leave it to just voting with a hackable voting machine on 11/3. It's 11:58 and we're 120 seconds away from Trump demanding to be called Chancellor or President For Life, to the cheering of the 62,000,000, or more.
Total, as in totalitarian. Trump gets more bold about his intentions every day, especially during his recent rallies disguised as briefings, not that we didn't already see his intentions during the 2016 campaign or when he called his fellow Nazis in Charlottesville "very fine people" or when he proudly presented Stephen Miller to America as one of his top aides and speech writers. Never mind that amendment 10 of the American Constitution says:
The powers not delegated to the Untied States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.Remember when Republicans used to claim state rights on just about everything?

The question remains: Is the US Military going to abide by the Constitution, or will they obey Trump? There isn't much coverage of this topic of which I am aware.
Bolsonaro in Brazil is calling for a military coup of Brazil, something that nation lived under from 1964 to 1985.
Orban has essentially put Hungary under similar terms without openly expressing them.
Duterte DOES murder people in the main streets of Manila and gets away with it.
And so on.
Someone needs to address this question. The literal fate of the nation hangs in the balance.
12:07: I've seen this question come up several times. Bill Maher asks it almost every week when talking to a guest about whether they think Trump will leave the White House if he loses. I've also seen it come up on the Chris Hayes show, on Lawrence O'Donnell, and on this blog. I don't know about the rest of the media. They aren't worth my time.
Neither Bill Maher nor anyone on MSDNC are worth my time. They are all talk and no walk. None of them are around when they might do something beneficial.
