The (new) Observer's Patrica Clarke has surveyed the shape of 'Trump Family Inc.' & how the Tangerine Tyrant's second term will likely further enrich the various family members & close associates.
None of this is particularly new but when you have it all summarised in one place it become clear quiet how POTUS Trump is focussed on the presidency for private gain rather than any inkling of public service (again no surprise, but just now very stark!)

"President Donald Trump waited until the 101st day of his administration to fire national security advisor Mike Waltz, the official responsible for including the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic on an unsecure Signal chat in which leaders shared classified information about a military strike on the Houthis in Yemen."

"Heβs doubling down on things people donβt like. Heβs fomenting a growing political backlash. The more signs we see of the limits of Trumpβs power the more people show signs of bucking that power. All power is unitary. We see signs of it everywhere. You simply cannot impose an autocracy if a clear majority of the country opposes what you are trying to do at the outset, when you are trying to do it."

"Donald Trump is an aspiring despot intent on destroying American democracy. The people with the power β and the constitutional obligation β to stop him are the Republicans in Congress. Their failure to act is a constitutional crisis and a stain on their legacy that will never be removed." - Marc Elias
"The administration wants everyone to know that nothing will protect you. Thereβs no bridge too far, no line they wonβt cross. If theyβll deport 2-year-olds and not give it a second thought, if theyβll leave someone in a violent prison overseas, if theyβll roll up on a judge and arrest her at the courthouse, theyβll do anything. The fear is absolutely the point."

"Weβve never seen anything like the seismic political shift Trump triggered in Canada to deliver a stunning Liberal win. Trumpβs toxicity is rewriting global politics."
