Not sure if he has the power to do that, or if he could do it but not make it permanent. But if he can, he really should…

    Well, he’s a King, with Divine Right, according to SCOTUS.

    Will he use that Right? No, he won’t, because the Democratic Party of the US won’t belittle themselves to fight dirty.

    Hence, here we are.

        He’s a sitting duck, nothing bad will happen if he just goes “Alright, I’m king for the next 3 months. Here’s some more polices things for Americans, free gun training and a copy of the Improvised Munitions book included.”

        He could just… legalize pot, give Americans money, and have Trump taken care of. “but muh rule of law!!! what president would that set for the next dude who’s going to do it anyways?”

          Yup. It would also be nice to have a candidate that was outspoken and fighting for things. The two party system sucks

            The problem is we have two parties beholden to greed. The difference is one will throw the peasants bones occasionally, the other are literal narcissistic psychopaths. People unable and incapable of recognizing anyone or anything beyond themselves as anything but useful, or unuseful tools to gaining their goals and desires. That includes family. Other people are literal things to be used, or discarded when undesirable.

            Both US parties worship Mammon. One is just slightly more benevolent.

            The United States of America was founded on greed. Wealthy white men who hated sharing a single cent of their wealth. Here we are, the logical conclusion.
