He’s on record as talking about not being restricted to a third term. SCOTUS has ruled that he can do no wrong, specifically in the context of him being brought to trial for asking for the vote to be rigged in his favour, but also for inciting armed insurrection against the United States government in order to keep him in power after the rules said he should go. He has talked, out loud, about being a dictator on day one and said that he should be allowed to order the death of people who oppose him. You could argue that Russia is a democracy, but the kind of “democracy” where political opponents are murdered and vote counts are changed in favour of the leader are better called dictatorships.
Last time he was in a position of power, he tried to organize a coup against the US government. It’s not a stretch to think that might be his starting point.
I’ve heard this before. What do you people mean when you say “end of democracy”?

The thinking is that Trump will do something for the republicans to remain in power permanently.
Not clear what that something is.

I’m stunned how people just bloop right over that
Extreme gerrymandering
RepubliQan staffed voting approval boards that change the outcome
Blatantly unconstitutional laws to prevent minorities from voting (even more than they have now)
Troops at the polls
Some of these are already passed in red states.
