Too many people in the U.S. have discounted the damage that is being done. Wall Street sure has. In contrast the European neighbors are taking it very seriously. Their history demonstrated what unchecked power can do.
Personally I think there is a good chance that we are Italy and Germany in the 30's, and unless the courts can stop what is happening, or some black swan event removes him from office, I think it is over.
Too many people believe it can't happen here. They thought the same thing prior to January 6th, where people were discounting that there would be an actual insurrection against our government.
The book, The plot to seize the White House documents how FDR came very close to being removed from office by powerful forces in out country, and if it wasn't for a Marine General who exposed it, it would have happened.

The fact that in spite of what happened on January 6, the deaths of a million Americans from the mishandling of a pandemic, the country still voted him back in the WH, and that does not bode well.
History is repeating itself, and not in a good way.
January 6th failed only because there were people in his administration, congress, and the military who put the brakes on it. That is no longer the case. The republicans in congress are fully on board with this now, and the people he has appointed from the military to the FBI, are part of the cult.
We are in deep yogurt, and too many people don't believe it.
