I guess one can hope, he spends most of his term on "executive time" playing golf in Florida. But his billionaire kleptocrat clique plus the heritage foundation ideologists will still wreak havoc on domestic institutions.

You sure about that?  Looks to me like the Republicans will control the Executive Branch, the Legislative Branch, AND the Judicial Branch of the Federal Government in two months.

As in voting will no longer be a thing.

Not too optimistic, an absent US will do a lots of harm to world stability.

Any chance Biden can spend his last couple of months gutting the presidential powers?

 :lol: as garbon said the only way he is not running in 4 years is if there won't be a presidential election at all. Who is going to stop him going for a 3rd term? The SC? LOL

Tbh, there's a good chance he might be dead or a vegetable in four years.

On the plus side Missouri overturned its abortion ban.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Yeah, they are going to be able to do whatever they want with a big mandate.

He already  looks half dead.
I doubt he'll live till the next election.
Which is a worry honestly. Not just playing hyperbole games but this is something Trump has in common with Hitler, the precise things that made him so dangerous for getting into power make him good to have in power. A more competent Hitler/Trump would never have gotten into a position of power in the first place.
But neatly remove Trump from the equation with sudden death then suddenly you have in power someone just as menacing as him but less likely to be distracted from directly targeting a keystone of democracy by some crap he heard on TV that morning.
