David Frum, a former speechwriter for President George W. Bush, is issuing a dire warning about the state of American democracy should President Donald Trump win a second term.
Writing in The Atlantic, Frum argues bluntly that America "wouldn't survive" a second Trump term, even as the country is limping to the finish of his first term.
In fact, Frum believes that Trump has already proven that an American president can get away with discarding guardrails in place to keep him in check without suffering significant political consequences.

what he means to say is “our globalist marxist revolution will not survive another term”
that would be Atlantic regular, David Frum, who FANTASIZED the story about Trump’s HAIR, which his good friend at The Atlantic, Jeffrey Goldberg, included in his Sept 2020 Parisian fantasy about Trump:

Bernie Bros - & even moderate Dems - who planned on voting for Biden - surely must have second thoughts when they see the likes of Frum and other vile RINOS campaigning for Joe.
How is a speechwriter considered an “official”?
There will be no waiting for the January inauguration.
The Deep State will immediately go into destruction mode.
He is absolutely correct—we won’t survive with four more years of President Trump, but we will thrive. He built the greatest economy we have ever seen prior to the pandemic, and he will do it again but better. You ain’t seen nothing yet if we voters give him control of the house and the senate.
What he really means is the Deep State wouldn’t survive a second Trump term. To them, America is the Deep State and patriotism = loyalty to the Deep State.

“an American president can get away with discarding guardrails in place to keep him in check”
I do not even have to read the article to know that Frum does not detail any Trump actions that Constitutionally meet the charges he makes. Just like the Dims saying things like “our democracy is in danger”, nothing precedes or follows such statements to back them up.
Charges, charges, charges, allegations, allegations, allegations - and not backed up by facts, just accusations.
It is amazing how Donald Trump had to fight the entire might of the Democrat party, the mainstream media (except for half of Fox News) AND the Bush era members of the republican party.
President Trump is a giant!
He would have to be a huge mean angry wolf that snaps at anything in his way, just to stay on top.
No wonder why half the people find his demeanor off-putting.
Go Trump! Take a bite sized chunk of the swamp, and then some more.
President Trump truly needs to streamline the means for such parasites, yap-hounds and communists to *easily* surrender their US citizenship and move permanently to any poor country that will accept them. No “backsies”.
Especially right after *this* election, there are so many defective, weak minded, neurotic, and fanatic individuals chomping at the bit to leave the US, President Trump should make it easy for them to do so.
He should even offer many 3rd and 4th world nations a one time payment (per head) for offering these dregs citizenship and a new place to feel miserable.
And the backside to this is that if any of them ever think about reentering America as illegals, they will face 5-10 years in a federal penitentiary before being deported.
Seriously, think of the people who could emigrate, and how much better our society would be without them.
“If Trump ever gets in the White House, we are doomed”
I guess well know in four years whether America can survive a second Trump term.
... our democracy is in danger...

Guardrails? I suppose that means all the “reach across the aisle and give more and more incremental control over to the progs” *compassionate conservatism* shtick? I don’t really know and neither do they, IMO.
Or maybe it means a weakened executive, a powerful (D & RINO-controlled) Congress and a rubber stamp Judiciary?
