If that happens, it means that any political opponent is at risk of losing every single right. That is an overwhelming constitutional crisis and I cannot see any ending that is not catastrophic.
Yet when I go on the internet, I see these right-wing Trump supporters making arguments in support of stuff like this with the most hollow and rabid nature.
Have any of you considered that the US Gov just does whatever it wants and manufactures at least a large percentage of the consent we see in digital media?
And I'd be willing to bet that if the election were re-run today they'd make the same choice.
Electing a mad man or dictator is not equivalent to 3/4 of the states ratifying an amendment to the Constitution. The Yarvin, Thiel, Musk view of using autogolpe to place a CEO-dictatorship in place of Constitutional order is in progress. But the People haven't consented to that. Proposing that they have does enormously heavy lifting for this patrimonial diarchy movement.
But we'll see. Assuming there is an election next year, they'll have a chance to signal their disapproval. In many cases it will suffice for them to simply stay home.
My prediction is that they will vote to affirm this self coup. I would very much like to be proven wrong.
