Demographics are trending away from conservatism and since they are almost to the point where they can no longer win elections, they want to install a permanent conservative dictatorship.
This has been a long time coming, I remember hearing on the radio in 2008 that projections showed conservatives couldn’t win elections if current trends continued for ~20 years, and they did. In conservative speak they call this the “great replacement theory” but it’s standard population math that a freshman math major could perform. They frame in a way to make stupid people think something nefarious is occurring. In reality, conservatives are the shrinking minority that is attempting to cling to power.
Just look back to the last time a conservative won the popular vote. I believe it has been over 20 years. The electoral college can only carry conservatives for so long.
To paraphrase a famous quote, “At some point conservatives will have the choice of abandoning conservatism or abandoning democracy.” Which do you think they’ll choose?
Which is why it pisses me off when people go, “Third Party/Not Voting”. Other elections, fine. This election? Dems need to win. Period. They need all three branches of government and enough of a margin to prevent getting Manchin’d. Anything less means there will not be a second chance
Destroy the GoP first, THEN focus on smacking around the Dems
The last was Bush Jr but it was narrow, there were two wars raging, and he was in office already. The last first termer was Bush Sr. That was 36 years ago.
Even the EC cant hold it much longer. A blue Texas means the odds of a GOP win become in single digit probabilities. Go to Nate Silver’s site and play with the possible maps yourself.
Of course in an ideal world they would look at this and try to change to match what the population wants.
It’s the logical conclusion of the insane unitary executive theory. Basically gives the president power way beyond what the constitution outlines that a sympathetic judiciary (what we’re currently stuck with) could enable.
What makes me laugh is the idea that if Trump were declared dictator for life, how long do you think his life would be?
One, the man weighs 280 lb in his 70s. He does not have long left.
Two, the best way to become dictator for life is to be announced dictator for life. This second best way is to kill the current dictator for life and take his seat. How long do you think it will take all of the people that follow Trump for money to realize that putting a bullet in his head would get them more money?
Well technically three years is all that separates their child brides from being legally old enough to consent when transported across state lines, so I’m sure that must be just enough difference in their minds.
One person is easier to control than a mob. The billionaires want a Puppet President they appoint without the annoyance of a voting populace. In short, they want feudalism with themselves as the aristocracy.
Whats that?

Basically it would turn the American Government into the CCP but with Trump instead of Xi

Joe Biden is too old and senile but this other guy that was a freshman in high school when Joe Biden was a senior is somehow alright
