A reader remarks on the GOP Senators breaking ranks to rebuke the President’s national emergency declaration:
Maybe they are starting to see the writing on the wall. If they want to retain their power, they need to reign the president in. Otherwise, we may be facing President Ivanka, president for life. I’m not kidding. We are living the exact story of how authoritarian nepotism works.
I think my reader hyperbolizes a bit. I seriously doubt enough Americans would be willing to put up with that kind of shit from Washington; nor would the military. Such a setup would have to offer some big advantages to a lot of American citizens in order for it to be accepted.
If a recession were to occur during President Trump’s first term in office, that would probably limit him to a single term.
