Coalition of parties must save government

As we move further into his presidency, Donald Trump, with a blitzkrieg of executive orders, has shifted our government from a democratic republic to an oligarchy. While our president is focused on retribution, Elon Musk, our country’s first oligarch, is gaining control of the Treasury Department and the systems that control government payouts, like Social Security.

Many, if not all, of Trump’s illegal actions are and will, be challenged in the courts; but will he abide by the courts’ decisions if they go against him? He will not. This last election could indeed be our last election. Only a coalition of Democrats and Republicans, who now regret their vote for Trump, can stop him from completely destroying America.

If this coalition can bring out millions of protesters and if the Republicans pressure their congressional representatives, impeachment might be possible. But this won’t happen until Americans actually care about what’s going on,
