63. And the longer he stays in office, the more 'normal' getting away with shit becomes.

I would not even doubt that IF he stole his way into another victory, by the end of his eight year term, he would have consolidated power to such a degree with loyalty pledgers, in every possible authority position, that he COULD, and probably WOULD just to prove he can...shoot someone on 5th avenue.

I can see it now. A whole TV production by Fox News which will be the only news network left on TV. Maybe the Sinclair group will have their own by then, or the rising America First movement who are even more extreme. But a big production, where some undocumented immigrant who was one of the very few that had been convicted of murdering or raping a good white American citizen, in a Red border state, would face a grinning Donald wearing some military garb rife with fake medals waving one of the most controversial semi automatic military style weapons.
