    Nobody is talking about it on the MAGA side, but that’s because it is too early. If they were to make the announcement now, that leaves more than a year for people to get angry, and the courts to weigh in, stop their ban.

    Instead, they’ll wait until late next summer. They will stoke the protests between now and then, forcing them to be more and more violent. Eventually they will engineer a major violent incident, and sometimes around early to mid-October 2026, he will announce that the 2026 Mid-terms are being postponed “until peace can be restored.” Since he controls the peace, and what defines it, that will never happen.

    Even so, many will believe him, and think that when those evil liberal protesters start to behave, we can get our elections back. But when he suspends the 2028 Presidential election, people will finally understand that there will never be another election as long as he is alive.

      I think both outcomes are likely right now, but it’s pretty sure that there’s not gonna be a regular free democratic election.
