People who say Trump can’t follow through on these threats against the judicial system are assuming he’ll follow the law and won’t try anything insane.

I think it’s a big mistake to get complacent about that. As he’s frustrated more and more by the courts and public opinion (and that’s going to happen, of this there is no doubt), it’s entirely possible he’s going to really lose it and make a serious effort to turn the presidency into a very real autocracy, possibly with military support.

The United States is in very serious trouble with this malevolent unpredictable narcissist in charge.
