Trump's about to fins out he was expendable all along. However, at his age, it was never in doub that he wouldn't last too long.
I'm less worried by him having a third term. I don't think he'd have the stamina for pretending to be president, let alone actually stage a(nother) coup, even with help.
It was lightening on a bottlez os hopefully his downfall is the end of far right shenanigans for another generation. The question is how much will he destroy before that happens, how much damage will his successor so before getting the boot and how will we hold all levels culpable.
There will be a sense of returning to normal without punishmentz but the lack of punishment for Nixon is what directly led to Trump not facing consequences. There is not inoting the country by not upholding the rule of law.
