Interrupting discussion momentarily to share a word I learned today-- appropriate to thread topic.

See (post by Fiveyearlurker on Nov. 13):

What will happen if Trump somehow remains president?

Today I learned the word “autogolpe”: " in which a nation’s leader, despite having come to power through legal means, dissolves or renders powerless the national legislature and unlawfully assumes extraordinary powers not granted under normal circumstances."
