Day One
Dictator Trump: I am disbanding the US Constitution, and implementing a new one that gives the Office of the President supreme power. Whatever the President says becomes law and supersedes Congress and the Supreme Court. The sole purpose of Congress and the Supreme Court are to support the President however it's requested by the President. Anyone that disagrees with the President will be immediately be found guilty of high treason and punished by death without a trial. Only the President can decide who is allowed to run for President in elections. The only person that can adjust this constitution is the President, and only in order to give the President more power.
Day Two
President Trump: Sorry, guys. I'm just following the new constitution that the dictator before me implemented. ¯\(ツ)/¯
You joke, but that is uncomfortably believable.
I can see why people would think I'm joking, but I am not. This is the kind of bs he would pull. He's warning us, bragging, and setting us up to shift blame onto us at the same time.
