I too share the fear that year after year, governing by executive order and emergency order is here to stay. Bush admin escalated this in new ways with the war on terror, then Obama, then Trump, then Biden, then Trump again…more and more and more. We are living in a civilized authoritarian state, with eroding democracy year after year.
And my fear is the same democrats who are criticizing Trump’s abuse of powers and too much power in the executive today will do the same thing when they are back in power for their own causes. And the people aren’t willing to say “no!”
Either we go into full authoritarianism/communism, or the people fight back through a period of great civil unrest. Hard not to see either coming to fruition in the next 25 years or so.
