32. Prosecutors judges and juries will be threatened by the MAGA mob

And Trumps own armed Militia will stand in front of their houses taught their families. Some can be bought off and if there are any penalties it will only be a slap on the wrist.
His power is the mob. I don’t believe it to be 75 million as claimed, but it is a large enough number that 40% of the legislature won’t stand up to him. The republicans that hate him are quitting, resigning rather than risk their safety and any future as a lobbyist.
Mitch had the power by voting against him and bringing more than 17 republicans with him. He let that pass and it will be very difficult to reverse.
