He has stated that he wants Musk to come in and literally fire everyone.

He's already got the Supreme Court to allow him to assassinate opposition.

Even if he doesn't, its a very dark path being trod.

What's stopping him from doing a Nayib Bukele, calling a state of emergency, mobilising the armed forces and using them to coerce the House and Senate into passing laws?
