- #GOP plans to secure (i.e. steal) the 2024 US election by subverting or bypassing remaining bodies working in favour of free(r) & fair(er) voting;
- invoking the #InsurrectionAct in order to use the military to quell protests;
- purging the #USmilitary & government of independently-minded individuals and replacing them with loyalists;
- removing #TermLimits and other constitutional or institutional checks on #SupremeExecutivePower;
- bringing independent government-funded bodies under direct presidential control;
- locking up his political enemies (or worse, implicit in constant violent metaphors), including partisan opponents, media critics and #antifascist activists;
- blanket presidential pardons for himself & his cronies;
- deporting undesirable people by the millions (requiring the establishment of huge deportation camps (i.e. #ConcentrationCamps);
- further dismantling the vestiges of anything resembling a welfare state;
- pulling out of multilateral & international bodies, reconfiguring #geopolitics even further in favour of #authoritarian regimes;
