Trump did some awful things in his first term, but he was prevented from doing his worst. He was prevented by GOP appointees who believed in the Constitution and the rule of law. He was prevented by Democratic control of part of Congress. And he was prevented by the court system.
In his coming second term, none of those guardrails will exist.
Trump learned from his first term. In the second, he will not surround himself with those who believe in the Constitution or rule of law. He will nominate only sycophants, who will do anything he wants - even things that are illegal, morally reprehensible, or damaging to our economy and democracy.
Congress will not stop him. MAGA Republicans now control the Senate, and it looks like they will also control the House of Representatives.
The courts will not stop him. The Supreme Court has ruled that he can do anything he wants (even break the law) because he has immunity.
Trump has told us what he wants to do. And he can now do all those horrible things because there is no one to stop him!
