There will almost certainly be an election in 2028. The degree to which it will be rigged through gerrymandering, voter intimidation, voter suppression and/or blatant cheating is a different question.

  • The answer is "as much as legal, and maybe a little more" as with all American elections.

  • Every president remodels and redecorates the White House, often to a much greater degree. The consternation over it is an intentional distraction.

      Exactly. It's a social norm among that class of society

      When a Koch, or a Scwab, or the CEO of some mega-corp buys a property on Martha's Vineyard, or the Hamptons, or Vail or overlooking Tahoe or whatever, with intent to actually spend even the scantest amount of time there themselves they engage in absurd unnecessary renovations. That's just how they do things. There is an occasional exception for those in that group who have "found meaning" in some other avenue for lighting money on fire.

      Edit: You can thank me later for implicitly telling you where the best construction dumpsters are.
