Although I don't get your gist, prediction is a prediction and it might not turn out to be true. These are sheer wishful thinking.But Steven, the writer, has made a relief and cautioned, that I quote: " The bottom line: I am by no means predicting the collapse of democracy in the United States under a President Donald J. Trump. What I am saying is that it is not impossible, and there are some clear warning signs to watch out for. Now, as always, the price of freedom is eternal vigilance. Or to use a more modern formulation: If you see something, say something".
