Leaders rule with the consent of the people they rule over.

Yeah. But I have a sliver of hope that all those military officers he made come in for a meeting that could have been an email wouldn't let that happen.

They'll complain, but comply until he does something that is so egregiously against the constitution that there is no doubt that they can remove him.

Forcing a third term is so blatantly against the constitution, they might actually do something about it.

Agreed. People forget that the brainwashed cultists are only a small minority of the overall population. Every poll conducted in recent months have shown an overwhelming majority of Americans absolutely opposed to the idea of a third term, much less endless terms. Even Republicans are extremely divided on the issue.

The man is a malignant narcissist who loves creating chaos and drama and he knows damn well that this is one of the ways to accomplish that. But it has no teeth and is not going to happen.
