The problem with trying to turn the US into an authoritarian government is our massive land size and population. The military just isn't big enough. And there are those in the military that won't go along with a military coup.

Republicans are going to continue to use immigration and "foreign" threats as a distraction to economic issues in 2026. It will take some really disciplined candidates to not let Republicans frame the issues.

If I were going to run, I would talk about the 1% and corporations the way Trump talks about immigrants. We need to be aggressive and simple in our messaging.
