I'm officially terrified.

Dana Bash on CNN just reminded Kevin McCarthy that he'll be second in line to the presidency once elected Speaker. Holy shit. The second dumbest member of Congress. A dumber version of Trump. Vote, vote, vote, vote, vote, vote, vote.

That the MOST likely outcome of Trump will be something worse than Trump.

The weak reaction to Trump by the government is proof to hostile powers, and even domestic scumbags like the Koch Brothers, that US democracy is weak, US politics is an easy target and that bad guys can easily win.

This is likely the calm BEFORE the storm.

If given he is above the rule of law, they will lose all their powers to do anything to him , and he'll undermine them ASAP. Russian oil sanctions being removed soon by him. I would also be shocked if he hasn't tried, or already corrupted Supreme Court Justices already .
