well, that's indeed the question, thanks for bringing it up. In most #bananarepublics it's not the citizens forcing the #dictator out, it's the #army taking over. We'll see if the #US qualifies.
That's why 47 has prisons in El Salvador, Russia, North Korea, and right here at home. Pretty soon he'll have mass graves, too, for the "Lunatic Left," and "The Enemy Within." Check with ya in 20 years to see if I'm right. Hope I'm wrong, but
It would seem that the courts could enforce their decisions in spite of Trump. If his orders are deemed illegal, those who received those orders cannot carry them out. So the underlings should already know they are not obliged to carry out illegal orders.
Everything the Nazis did in their consolidation of power was technically legal under their constitution and it took them about a decade to achieve full control. Now we're seeing how quickly it can go when the leader just ignores the constitution and a significant chunk of the population supports it. Speedrunning the end of an empire.
Honestly every goddam major company and investor in the US has a lot at stake in the protection of the rule of law in this country. (With the exception of the South African madman who has grabbed control of the White House.)
They'd better start working their lobbyists and wholly owned Republican Senators to stop this. They can. Hey guys. Tell them to bounce Kash Patel. That would be a warning.
Fun fact from Wikipedia - "A high crime can be done only by someone in a unique position of authority, which is political, who does things to circumvent justice." You can't more directly circumvent justice than to ignore a directive from a member of the judiciary. Impeachment is the appropriate next step.
too many people believe deceptive media. They drank the Koolaid. Political media is responsible for this. Political Media must be exposed. Admission of guilt is needed by those who deceived others. Unwinding cults is a very hard thing to do

He’s probably right, sadly.
