If that's not an emolument, I don't know what is

Well this is kinda what happens when all the checks and balances are under the control of the same people.
Normally this is the point where the voters themselves act as the ultimate check, but thanks to your weird-ass, gerrymandered electoral systems that’s no going to work either. Even if we politely ignore the fact that a good fourth of the country is fully on board with the lunacy and only howls for moar, moar, MOAR to cuck the libz.

As for what happens next ? Dictatorship, usually.

Gerrymandering is part of the problem, but there’s no saving ourselves from ourselves.
