Pretty much spells the end of us.
The whole point of what the US was founded on was to prevent the tyranny of the whims of one leader without the representation of its people.
We've now crossed the Rubicon of which power can be usurped without following our Constitution.
Even if this gets knocked down in the courts, it sets the precedent that dependent on the right situation, one could eventually break our system of government.
Trump just wiped his ass with the Constitution and the GOP cheered him on. There is no way Democrats should justify this with their own whims. If they do so, it would hasten our demise even quicker.
