I think you're discrediting that there's a decent chance that Trump is at least going to try to turn the US into a dictatorship. I'm hoping any attempt will fail, but there's been weirder successes throughout history

And I think people who claim Trump is going to put Americans in camps do nothing but polarize the political landscape more than it already is. If you sincerely believe Trump would have the ability to line up political dissedents up in mass and send them to camps, you've reached a level of delusion that is unhealthy. Theres no evidence Republicans are going to gain nearly enough seats for a supermajority, so please explain to me how Trump sends democrats to camps. It's a sensational divisive claim that does nothing but worsen an already shit electoral climate. Its the same level of crazy as claiming Bidens going to take away your guns. Even if thats what he said he wanted, he lacks any way to do so.

The only people actually goin to camps are immigrants and last I checked those are still open and functioning.
