If they stop him from declaring himself ruler for life he can’t run for reelection. Two terms and they don’t have to be consecutive.
@VelvetDuchess he will just declare martial law. No more elections.
@Eclecticmezzo @VelvetDuchess HE isn't going to live long enough for another term. look at him. he's not well.
Vance, OTOH, is younger & apparently healthy in body. but Junior & Eric think they deserve a dynasty, so that could be interesting...

Doesn't matter if he remains in office for only four more years--if he lives that long.
He'll tear a lot down, and further shift the Supreme Court to the right.
Even if the next election happens and is fair and a democrat is elected--it'll take a generation to begin to repair the damage.
@tyghebright @redenigma @Eclecticmezzo @VelvetDuchess true, Tyghe, we haven't recovered from Reagan's tax breaks to corporations(are people) and millionaires.
@JanetZumba_FalPals @tyghebright @Eclecticmezzo @VelvetDuchess "trickle down" has always been a joke on the average worker, but they still seem to be able to sell it to the rubes
@redenigma @JanetZumba_FalPals @tyghebright @Eclecticmezzo @VelvetDuchess
Things have been much worse in the US (slavery, Indian genocide), and we've put it behind us, at least officially.
I'm more worried about the environmental impact. We don't have 4 years to waste.

There's a big difference in "putting things behind us' and just not talking about the things that continued to happen for decades and decades afterwards.
