the only thing potentially stopping him is the MIC and intelligence apparatus so im doubtful we’ll see any seismic change in those parts of the us govt that most deserve to be cut to ribbons but it only serves their purposes if he can blow up what remains of education and social safety nets without much destabilizing backlash. it’s still just “advisory” to the omb which still goes through congress but it would take liberals fighting republicans like they fight vaguely left of center ‘progressives’ and im skeptical of their willingness to do that
