I've been thinking about this recently.

What happens when the Felon's term is over (assuming he hasn't declared martial law, or done some similar power grab)?

If the economy is not a shambles, probably not much. A new Rep administration would be possible, and the Reps are now MAGA-heads. So...not much.

But, as I suspect will be the case, a wrecked economy will usher in a Dem administration. Voters tend to punish the party in control when the economy is bad. In that case, any pending EOs (and/or litigation of those EOs that is still pending) will be abandoned/canceled/not-defended. Seems obvious. I would expect a rescinding of any EOs that are not pending. So, the Dept of Education would be restored. Consumer Protection would be restored. CDC, FDA, even IRS. People would be rehired (assuming their terminations actually stuck, which is not a sure thing given all the TROs flying around). Basically, an unwinding of everything that has been going on. At least domestically. It seems ridiculous to cause all this chaos, knowing that it will almost certainly be undone in the future. Probably the near future.

Foreign policy won't be so easy. We have now lost trust, and it will be very difficult to earn it back. So that will be lasting, unfortunately.

But the domestic stuff, I don't see the point. It almost certainly won't last. Once the bull is out of the china shop, you sweep up the mess and restock your china.
