    Because he surrounds himself with incompetent people that rely on him for their continued employment.

    When he has his last burger, support collapses by quite a bit (although not nearly enough). That’s why they’d quite like to not bother with elections in the future. Nobody is decorating their mobility scooters and mobile homes with Vance merch.

    Plenty of people are telling him to piss off, it doesn’t matter anymore, he has the keys to the castle.

    He’s also surrounded by a cabal of the worst people humanity has to offer, who are taking this opportunity to get as much abhorrent shit done as they can before he kicks the bucket and this weird cult of personality they have dies with him.

    None of them are interested in stopping this train, they’re getting everything they dreamed of and more.

    Because Mitch McConnell and the regular corporate GoP have been planning this for decades, getting legal precedents in place, getting judges into the right spots across the US, all of it.

    The religious right were used as tools by them and the GoP elite always assumed they had exclusive control of them. Then Trump comes along and upends their control, and now Trump is a barely present fool and the religious right(see: Stephen Miller) are in full control of all three branches of the US fed.

    That’s how democracy works

    The will of the people is greater than the laws as written

    The people voted for Trump, a Republican congress, and by extension a Republican Supreme Court

    It’s working as intended

      30% of US adults voted for trump.

      Decades of gerrymandering, voter suppression, disinfo campaigns and no small amount of outright fraud brought the current regime to power, not the will of american people.

    He has blackmail on them. We call it the Epstein files. That’s why most of it isn’t released.

    Because he literally has all the levers of power and the Supreme Court and they’re all owned by Israel and the Zionist oligarchs and Trump blows them just like bubba. The constitution hasn’t really been real since the patriot act and citizens united became law

    It sounds like you’re getting your information from purely 1-sided sources. Look for news sources that cover the perspective of both sides. I’m not saying this as a Trump supporter.

    Because the constitutional methods for fixing a rogue presidency lie with the legislature. The legislature is complicit.

    Unfortunately the Constitution is toothless when bad actors control anything more than like 40% of the government.

    That was what the election was for.

    When someone votes for a person like Trump, they are voting to not hold him accountable and to continue doing worse and worse things and to do away with guardrails, rules, rights, and all those other niceties of the social contract.

    This is what every MAGA sounds like the moment their token gets spent or the chickens come home to roost for them and they receive the same consequences they wanted and voted for others (“but not meeeee”) to be treated with by Trump’s regime
