That's honestly what scares me the most. I think we can survive another 4 years of Trump. What I don't think we could survive is if he completely destroys what democracy stands for and gets rid of our term limit for presidency. That is completely terrifying to me and seems to be a very real threat. Trump is old and he'll probably die soon, but if he gets rid of term limits then who knows what kind of horrifying monster we could have ruling the country indefinitely after his death once that precedent is set.

But at least I have another 4 years roughly before I have to start worrying about that I guess.
