Part of me thinks 2025 and onward might be like being on four years of probation that could be extended, depending on the oligarchy's whims.
Also, I think of 1925 in Indiana when the defacto state gov't leader (wizard) imploded the majority party due to cruelty and greed.
I'm optimistic for the future. We must be resilient. We must remember what happened past leaders who went down similar roads.
