I think that we all had better start getting used to a second term for Trump. The polls keep gradually moving his way, and Kamala has not yet figured out a way to stop that. So the question is what would be the worst thing that Trump would do in his second term. I have three items to start:
-Give Putin/Russia an inevitable victory in Ukraine by pullling all US support from Zelensky and his military. Yes, he clearly plans to sacrifice an entire independent and democratic nation because Putin is his good buddy. There is no place too deep in hell for someone who would sacrifice an entire nation to his ego.
-Release the Jan 6 rioters from jail. I'm certain that his staff is drawing up a list for him and, yes, he plans to release them "as his first act". He will be sworn in, and then go back to the WH and sign the pardon to release them. The criminals who tried to overturn the results of the last election by stopping the Electoral College vote counting and who battered any number of Capitol police will be walking free within a few hours of his inauguration, just his first action in throwing the Constitition into the trash.
-He will encourage more lawsuits regarding stopping abortions from the Red State Attorneys General, and even more draconian laws. Hopefully the referendum elections to overturn the abortion bans will be successful but beyond that, and over the next four years, the war on women's rights will be in full swing in the Red State legislatures and in the far right courts. And who knows what restrictions the far right Trump SC will add.
That's just a start on some very obvious ones. I'm sure that there are plenty to add. Goodbye Constitution, goodbye Democracy as we have known it.
