If there is a second Trump presidency, whatever little competence and objectivity we have in every federal agency will be out the door in no time. As bad as FEMA has been in responding to federal emergencies, can one imagine a Blue State seeking assistance from Trump next time? There was a big uproar during the Obama years on the IRS removing exemption for certain religious non-profit. Now think about what the IRS under Trump may do to his real and perceived enemies. Most Americans do not know how the government works is why half the country does not see a problem with Trump being president.
There was plenty of evidence for what you describe. I’m remembering particularly when Kushner hatched a scheme to delay needed Covid supplies to blue states, early in the pandemic. A continuation of this would be but one way in which a second Trump administration would be a crisis. I’m among those who think it would be the end of our democracy.
