"When Trump loses in November, America needs to grapple with the fact that it was not our constitutional system, but Trump’s own incompetence that preserved our democracy. We might not be so lucky with the next would-be authoritarian.”
This quote is why someone like Josh Hawley is so terrifying to me. Someone like him would use the flawed design of our political system to wreak havoc on our society. If Biden is elected and we don't eliminate the filibuster, Democrats won't be able to do anything. Whoever the Democrat nominee is will lose due to general dissatisfaction. And we will realize that Trump really was the clownish buffoon compared to what the Republicans will bring next.
