Tomorrow marks the end of Year One of the Second Term of Donald Trump in the Presidency.
Already, it is quite clear that America is in crisis, as Trump 47 is far more disastrous and dangerous than Trump 45 was.
Trump 45 had people who were able to control his impulses, and prevent what could have been worse than was.
Trump 47 has no such individuals, as his entire Cabinet and other advisers are no check on his whims and desires, and he has been running rampant in a highly dangerous way.
He has promoted chaos, anarchy, cruelty, instability, and persistent authoritarian actions in a multitude of areas of domestic and foreign policy.
If the Republicans in Congress continue to bow to his whims;
If the Supreme Court continues to ignore his abuses of power;
If the corporations, law firms, universities, news media continue to bow to his demands;
And if the Democratic Party cannot win back control of at least the House of Representatives, but hopefully the US Senate in the upcoming midterm elections of 2026,
Then there will be despair that American democracy and the rule of law will disintegrate completely as America reaches the 250th Anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, a landmark year.
