Will #DonaldTrump's presidency destroy American republic democracy?

Will #DonaldTrump's presidency destroy American republic democracy? One historian believes we're very close to going over the brink. For years one side has used the threat that the other side will find some reason to declare martial law and suspend elections. The Left did so when GWB was elected and the Right when Obama was and while most rational people believed it would never happen Donald Trump has repeatedly demonstrated his willingness to buck presidential norms and even the law.

And when he finally does jump the sharknado (because, let's face it, he's already jumped the shark a few times) will those in #TrumpNation finally feel remorse for voting for him?

Nope. They will think he's finally doing what is needed. They've already finished the cool-aide and are lining up for a second cup.
