Trump open to invoking the Insurrection Act is a chilling prospect that, frankly, feels like it’s been brewing for quite some time now. The idea that he might use this power to bypass the normal legal processes is deeply unsettling, especially considering the potential for abuse.

Ultimately, Trump’s own actions—including reckless foreign policy decisions, rampant corruption, and self-destructive tendencies—could be his undoing.
