@hosford42 @mattblaze yeah, that's the "practical ability" bit here. I want to remain hopeful, but the noise and fear mongering is very loud.

@mattblaze the "practical ability" thing is the one I'm most curious about here.

He's broken laws (has he not?) so far, and people complied? Is that being mis-represented in [social] media? e.g. there's lawsuits around tariffs? People told Trump "you can't do it, it's illegal", and yet he still did it, and his goons followed through? Why wouldn't the same work with elections, given he still has a compliant base of supporters, incl. among officials?
