And what does it say to Republicans when they can attempt a literal insurrection to overthrow the government with no repercussions then get elected again? "That's okay, just give it another shot."
And how much voice do you think the working class would have under a 2nd term of Trump?
They attempted a literal insurrection to overthrow the government to keep control of it What makes you think they won't try harder given a 2nd chance?
Constitution also says the candidate with the most electoral collage votes gets elected president. They didn't obey then, they won't obey it at the end of the 2nd term. "He gets another because his 2nd was stolen!" or some stupid bullshit like that.
Nobody is saying the Republicans will "pass all these things". Republicans won't bother with following the legal pathways because getting reelected will prove to them that they don't have to. Biden is having difficulty because he is obeying the constitution and laws, Republicans have already shown that they won't.
At this point I have to believe you're a Russian Troll. That's the only logical explanation for "The law abiding President isn't doing everything I want, so I'm not going to stop the Dictator from taking over who definitely won't do anything I want."
