I expect him to be a bloody tyrant. And why wouldn’t he? He said he would and we elected him. If we had a problem with it we wouldn’t have voted for him.
As long as he hurts the right people this time, he might be remembered as one of the most popular presidents in history.
I’m not sure how much longer history is going to last, is the problem.
I expect he’ll do what he spent his last term doing; spend half the day watching Fox News and rage-tweeting, go downstairs for some photo-ops and sign whatever his staff puts in front of him, get whatever it was challenged and (sometimes) blocked in court, and then, if he’s feeling insufficient attention, make a bunch of pronouncements that’ll catch everyone by surprise and then never follow up on it.
…And sign whatever bullshit the Federalist Society slip under his greasy hands, fucking the country over for decades, if not permanently
You’re right, completely glossed over his 3-day golf weekends.
It’s kind of cute for the times to write an article scaring us about that man now, after they spent months and years down playing the risk. But it’s to be expected, because all they want is drama. Truth, justice, decent human beings, none of that matters to the bosses at the times.
Given the opportunity, no, he’s not going to prosecute his foes. He’s going to have them killed.
But until he can count on getting away with that, he’ll have to, and will, settle for just prosecuting them.
Official act?
Whatever. It doesn’t matter.
The basis upon which the Supreme Court will rule in his favor as necessary might be of some scholarly interest, but that they’re going to is already a given.
I think it’s more likely that he’ll order killings the same way that his hero Putin does - it won’t be officially acknowledged in any way, but it will be an open secret that he ordered them. And anyone who tries to look into any of them any further will be silenced.

Trump has to be immured. Why?
‘Before Nelson Mandela was arrested in 1962, he was an angry, relatively young man. He founded the ANC’s military wing. When he was released, he surprised everyone because he was talking about reconciliation and forgiveness and not about revenge.’
- Desmond Tutu
I read stuff like this and I’m like “Oh yeah, I gotta reconnect my VPN…”
As if my half-assed security measures are gonna stop anything.
But first I think he’s going to pardon Hunter Biden. He’ll get to look like he’s rising above politics (despite Hunter not being a political figure) while painting Democrats as hypocrites for prosecuting their political rivals. Then he’ll pardon anyone associated with January 6th, using the Biden pardon as cover. Then, once he’s proven all the fascist rhetoric wrong, he’ll seek his revenge.
If Joe doesn’t pardon Hunter, there’s no way Trump will. He’s spent 6+ years saying the Biden family is crooked, he wouldn’t want to show he’s weak and reverse his original unsubstantiated stance. I assume Joe won’t pardon Hunter, to set some sort of norm for Trump, which Trump will completely ignore and pardon his family at the first smell of corruption.
He’d execute Hunter before pardoning him. Unless Hunter or J6ers are willing to cough up enough dough to buy a pardon, they’re gonna get ignored and rot in a cell. Maybe Epstein themselves.
Get Epsteined

I will never believe that was actually suicide. He had way too much dirt on way too many powerful people. He was offed.
