   @Rasterman I'll believe he's deporting illegals when I see it happen. Deportations will happen, because they are happening now, but mass deportations?

     @Elliptica @Rasterman How much political capital will Trump lose if he either fails to carry out "Mass Deportation" or can't make a good case the Deep State is preventing it so "Vote in 2026 for what we need to fix that?" Or the like for whatever excuse.

     One thing to remember in case you want him to go Andrew Jackson on the Federal court system or whatever: there's absolutely a super-majority of Dem plus GOPe Senators who'll vote for conviction upon impeachment if the latter think they can get away with it. I believe that was a big factor in his first term.

     To go back to an old quote:

     "You 'conservative pundits' still don't get it. Trump isn't our candidate, he's our murder weapon, and the GOP is our victim."

     That sub-process has to proceed far enough to get a lot of what we want, and Team Trump already removed Gaetz from the table). AKA what was made in 130 years cannot be unmade in 4-8-12 years.

     I'm now going with the start of the "Progressive Era," which never stopped after Wilson only destroyed the brand equity in that word. Also remember Republican Presidents like Teddy Roosevelt and Herbert Hoover were big on it; the former engineered a party split that might have placed Wilson in the White House.
