I hate to be pessimistic but just how do you expect us to fix this? The only institutions who have any authority over his actions are controlled by people who have shown us time and again that they’re willing to enable his ascent to autocracy and now they see the last election as proof that that’s what the American people indeed want.

Yes. We’ve been betrayed. Our elected officials do not uphold oaths is office. Half the country no longer wants democracy, they got what they want, and democracy no longer matters. I’m just waiting for them to turn on each other because they are a bunch of sociopaths. But there’s a lot of everyone else to fuck over before they start to factionalize. If we don’t somehow take back the House and Senate both in two years, we could be in for a protracted darkness.
