Trump has vowed to be a ‘dictator’ on day one. With this day now coming, what exactly will he do?

I'm just waiting for the almost immediate removal of the filibuster now that it would be Democrats using it. They're going to have the trifecta of control and they're going to go full scorched earth on Democrats.
His "promises made, promises kept" line makes me think he goes full dictator, Marshall law, insurrection act, terminate the constitution, send the death squads, eliminate/arrest the dems, fire up the death penalty machine for criminals (not including his criminals), declare the storm, and call for the purge.
Then, that demonic portal that his buddies said had opened up above the white house actually opens up.
Then elon, trump, and rogan, hop on their horses to set the world on fire.
Fuck this life.
This world - the people - deserve to be destroyed.
Humanity is a fucking disaster.
I understand you are scared right now, and there's probably no talking you off that ledge. Seek the goods things in your life right now. Surround yourself with the ones you love. It's hard to process, but breathe. I promise you'll be ok.
Edit:
Just wanted to add this moment of realization from a CBS news personality.
He was talking about how people shouldn't be afraid, that America is the oldest democracy on earth, that democracy wil survive, and things will be OK...
... And he continued on talking about how trump likely has full control of the government, the house, the senate, the courts, and an immunity ruling.
After the last words came out of his mouth he looked at the camera and paused and said, (paraphrasing) " I'd like to maybe take back the first part of what I said, we should be afraid"
I promise you he will order shootings on 5th avenue.
If you think I, we, us, anyone will be OK, like the half of the nation that elected him, you haven't been listening.
People voted for an economy and against scary immigrants.
They also get the storm, the purge, the accelerationists, the camps, the executions, the prisons, smothered hope for the last possibility of saving this earth from environmental collapse.
They literally want Armageddon.
I mean actually fucking literally.
Once you learn how many in the Republican party, and supreme court, are members of NAR and 7MM - literally groups with the purpose of bringing Jesus back.
Nobody is going to be OK .
He didn't do it the first time. Surely he won't do it this time right?
Right?
I'm so tired.
A lot of the safeguards against a power hungry president have since been removed by a red SCOTUS. In their own words "The president is now a king."
We're fucked
He lied about everything else so maybe he will lie about being a dictator.
I'm kidding, he only lies about doing good things.
Literally every former president says "promises made, promises kept."
Look at elections around the world. It is not just our mess.
last time he was president we got a global pandemic and no wall. i guess that'll happen again. just because.
I think he'll do a little victory dance.
Whatever happens is EXACTLY what we Voted for! I hope Day One he Eliminates my Healthcare, Social Security and makes all the Drugs to save my Daughter's life ILLEGAL!
But a pardon is not an absolution. To accept a pardon you also accept the crime that you did.
I bet he won't pardon the Jan 6. rioters since that doesn't do anything for him. He already won with them in jail and without their votes, there's nothing more he needs from them.
Really dark, but logical.
The good news is we’ll get a Supreme Court decision on the president pardoning himself. The bad news is we have a president who believes laws don’t apply to him and it will be decided by a court of judges whom he mainly picked, and I’m sure will not see the need to recuse themselves due to any conflict of interest
We’re going to get a Supreme Court who says a sitting president can’t go to jail for any crime, including the state felonies he’s been convicted of that he can’t self pardon.
Suspend habeus corpus, declare strikes illegal, nationalize power grids and other basics. Require national ID cards to make purchases, probably require an oath to Trump to get one...
Don't say "Viva la resistance".
No nationalization. All public services will be gutted and sold to cronies.
You forgot fire every single civil servant and install loyal idiots disband the department of education the department of health the weather channel pretty much everything that we've grown to appreciate.
Oh and also completely roll back every single social advancement made since the new deal.
#9 will actually be Putin’s Dirty Sanchez
So his first term all over again.
Except with teeth this time... The rich are going to use to dismantle the government
