Shutdown crisis, Trump's cruelty and cuts to healthcare elevated, jobs situation grim, inflation. Can Trump succeed

[Doodley]

in his dictatorship ambitions if public support drops to the low thirties? If polls at some point show he has lost the respect and confidence of two thirds of the country, will Republican lawmakers start infighting and the whole Trump coup implode?

1. IMHO our country is probably already lost

The mechanisms for the regime to fuck w/elections to the point where there's 0 chance of taking back the House or Senate in 2026 or 2028 (+ POTUS in 2028) will be well in place beforehand. This means the Repubs won't start infighting because they cannot lose elections. Trump is well on his way to completely usurping Congresses authority anyway, with the full blessing of the Slimy Six. The media is already completely cowed, the "independent" regulatory agencies are all corrupted with cronies, he uses the DoJ as his political hitmen, is massively profiting and committing Hatch Act violations with impunity, he's almost destroyed the federal employees unions, he's building a massive secret police force full of J6 traitors and various other degenerates that are beholden and accountable only to himself, and NOW he's trying to get the military to go to war against the American people.

If ALL THIS has not caused anyone to effectively stop him, terrible polling numbers are not going to either. The republicans have already sold their souls to Trump and the idea of fascist dictatorship run by "christian nationalists" and white supremacists. They have made it more than clear they are Trump is their "ride or die".

I DO HOPE I'M ENTIRELY WRONG, of course. And there's one possibility that could derail it, but it needs to happen soon. I shouldn't have to spell out what that is, but let's just say "KFC & Big Macs".
