There were still some guardrails in place while trump was occupying the Oval Office, which prevented trump from destroying the United States as we currently know it, and as it has functioned for over 247 years.

In case you forgot, between LOSING the 2020 election, and leaving office, trump tried to oust the acting AG Jeffrey Rosen and install a trump loyalist, JeffreyClark at the DOJ, which nearly caused a massive resignation of department officials.

Unfortunately that won't be the case IF trump were to win the 2024 General Election, as he'd be surrounding himself with only those absolutely loyal to trump, yes people, willing to do anything to stay in trump's good graces, even if the actions were unconstitutional or against the law.

Those yes people fear the wrath of trump. They'd bend over backwards to do trump's bidding.

You either had a poor history teacher or slept through a large part of the class. The way the US government has functioned, what things it has done or not done etc. have changed multiple times and often in radical ways over the years. And especially since Wilson and then FDR it has tended to do more and more things it left to the states, or no one did at all in the past.
The size of the government in the last 150 years has gone from being supported almost entirely by tariffs (except during wars) to the huge IRS/Tax programs of the present day.

More likely though you just believe what you want to believe. There are others just like you both pro and anti Trump, pro or anti Biden and just plain pro or anti conservative/liberal on UHH and other sites. Reality means nothing to them unless it happens to fit what they believe or want to be true.

Note: I taught History, Government, the Constitution and Geography for 34 years in Los Angeles High Schools and Jr High Schools.

lol ok that’s funny, you seem to have an unlimited supply of irrational conspiracies about Trump. There was always guardrails for any presidential Powers’s and none have been nullified. Trump had 4 years in office to become a so called and “Autocratic” leader and he never once made that attempt. I will encourage you to seek professional help to cure your obvious psychological issues with conspiracies. None of what you claimed is even remotely true or have any once of validity.


The coup failed Boo Boo. Ask around.
