There’s no downside for Republicans. If he succeeds they get to be close to the throne. If he fails they won’t be held accountable. It’s a win win for them because we don’t hold politicians accountable.

    He's also pretty much guaranteed to be dead in less than ten years, so all those narcissistic Republican assholes assume it will be them personally that takes the throne when it happens. So of course they support him.

    He’ll be replaced by one of his idiot children. It’ll be the dumbest monarchy in history, and that’s saying something.

    Can we agree that's when we all do the guillotine bullshit everyone loves to talk about but would never really do?

    The phrase "Trump monarchy" should be followed immediately by "executed by the citizens."

    Those idiots are no students of history and it won't be a win-win for them, either. If he succeeds, it is as likely as not they end up on the short end of the stick, too. These kinds of things always tend to end up that way.
