What is over exactly?
Why do you say “he probably will” as if it was a done deal?
Are you a trump shill?
@spaceghoti hit the high points. The presumptive nominee for President of the United States for one of two major parties is openly fascist, with exactly zero consequences. He has a lot of people on his side, many of whom are already in positions of power in government, in all three branches, and in the press.
There have been plenty of opportunities for consequences to be laid upon these people who are still working to overthrow the foundations of democracy. None have been laid. None. I have zero faith in the ability of a democratic government to be able to put down this fascism.

You are free to browse my comment history to make your own judgment on that. Or go fuck yourself, your choice.
“Go fuck yourself”
Ok, I deserve that for insulting you.
But moving on, I disagree with you. If he couldn’t overturn the elections while being president, he won’t be able to do shit now.
You forgot the “or … your choice” part.
We will disagree until at least powerful fascists see real consequences. This very post is about Trump telling his followers to go strongarm polling places, voters, and election workers. And they will. They’ve already made life hell for some election workers. They’ve already been threatening House members over the Speaker votes.
It’s getting worse, not better. It will continue to get worse. A lot worse. More people will die, and as yet, the people who are fomenting terrorism with their speech are not being held accountable at all.
They’re saying democracy in the US is over. The slow walk of prosecutions against the Jan. 6th insurgents, particularly its organizers, has given the fascists the confidence to do it again at a national level. We’ll either have to fight back with equal violence, flee, or submit to their dictatorship.

A sane legal system takes time. While I agree the organizers have mostly gotten off scott-free, it’s because they know how to keep themselves in the grey area even knowing full-well how the uneducated, violent people will react to their messages. The rubes have gotten hard time and I feel potential rubes have taken some notice. They’ll still play the victim all day, but they seem less hesitant to join calls to action.
It didn’t help that America’s top cop (AG Merrick Garland) deliberately held back on the investigations. It’s not just my opinion. Multiple observers came to the same conclusion.
