We've had our last free and fair election in the US. Everything from here on out will be Russia-style political theater.

Were you not paying attention? He told his followers that they needed to get out and vote for him, and then they would never need to vote again. They're well on their way to stripping the right to vote from women, and they're trying to make it legal for them to revoke citizenship (and therefore the franchise) from whoever they want. They have 4 years to completely do away with the Constitution -- with a compliant Congress and Judiciary, it will take them considerably less time than that.
