The distraction is exactly what you are describing: you think The Congress still holds any power. Or the Judicial. The longer he can keep the pretence that this is an “administration” and not a totalitarian regime, the more he can expand ICE, weaponise the DOJ, round up citizens without due process, build camps, make people think that there will be mid term elections that matter.

I tell you, if congress started articles of impeachment today and got the votes, and then had the senate vote to remove him, the supreme court would overrule it for him. It’s over. You don’t have a democracy anymore. It never was much to speak of, ever since Eisenhower’s warning of the Military Industrial Complex, but at least we were pretending and had changes of power every 8 years.

The analogy with Hitler’s rise is astonishing.

You realise this guy has a cuck fetish right? Made his married friends fuck prostitutes and tell their wives? He gets off on that. Do you see Nancy Mace, a rape survivor, cucking to him? Do you see Mike Johnson cucking? Vance? Moscow Mitch? And now Tim Cook, an openly gay man, supporting bigot and a rapist? He gets off on that. He hold power over all of them. He enjoys subjecting people around him to please, respect and obey him. That’s why he calls himself a very stable genius. He’s not leaving. Maybe someone will shoot him, maybe he will die, or maybe they poison him, but he’s not going back (to quote Kamala).

And after that, Vance and the tech bros will calm everyone down and pretend and promise they will bring a sense of normalcy.

Trump is still nominally beholden to the democratic process

That’s how I know you’re distracted.
