@georgetakei Orange wannabe-Caesar at least.

Something the Founders would've shown him the middle finger for:

"...
But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.
..."
— Preamble to the United States Declaration of Independence, July 4, 1776 —

@georgetakei “At that point, Trump will either back down from his threats and submit to the federal courts, or up the ante yet further.”

The latter. Definitely.
