Okay, so, American here who has been telling fellow Americans “it can happen here” for years about various shit. Because I know it can. There’s no reason it can’t.

It can happen here.
It has already happened
Oh God
It happened in Hungary when Orban decided to break bad and shoot for being president for life.
It happened in Russia when Putin orchestrated a series of false flag “terrorist” bombings to help seize the presidency which he hasn’t really ever relinquished control of (regardless of official position) at any point between then and now.
