[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone who has lived through the collapse of a democracy or studied that topic is very worried. Are they crazy or just better informed than you about the signs that institutions are failing and power is being dangerously ceded to one man with authoritarian tendencies?

A lot depends on if the executive still follows the courts. The legislative branch has shown no signs of being a check. They’ve been verbally threatening not to follow court orders for a few days. Threatening judges. Project 2025 says ignore the court rulings and proceed with your policies.

Are we crazy for taking them at their word?  Where do other people find the confidence to believe they wouldn’t actually do it?[/quote]

Really something that reducing the size of the federal workforce and ending ridiculous spending by USAID = the end of democracy.

If this is so obvious, why won’t he just propose these cuts to congress so they can pass a law cutting them?  Why does he insist on doing it illegally?[/quote]

Because Congress is incentivized to stay in power which means doling out funds and special pork projects for their constituents. [/quote]
