History can and does repeat itself.
In Germany 1933 the blueprint for America is a real possibility.
The german Constitution was allowed to be modified at will by Hitler by decree's that were by law amendments to their Constitution.
These decrees could not be challenged or modified.
The Enabling Act allowed the National Ministry (essentially the cabinet) to enact legislation, including laws deviating from or altering the constitution, without the consent of the Reichstag.
Also Hitler issued other decrees that had the effect of laws that could not be challenged also.
Through intimidation - prison - murder etc the german republic was forced to pass laws to enable hitler.
Consequences
Under the Act, the government had acquired the authority to enact laws without either parliamentary consent or control. These laws could (with certain exceptions) even deviate from the Constitution. The Act effectively eliminated the Reichstag as active player in German politics. While its existence was protected by the Enabling Act, for all intents and purposes it reduced the Reichstag to a mere stage for Hitler's speeches.
It only met sporadically until the end of world war II, held no debates and enacted only a few laws.
Within three months of the passage of the Enabling Act, all parties except the Nazi Party were banned or pressured into dissolving themselves, followed on 14 July by a law that made the Nazi Party the only legally permitted party in the country.
With this, Hitler had fulfilled what he had promised in earlier campaign speeches: "I set for myself one aim ... to sweep these thirty parties out of Germany!"
During the negotiations between the government and the political parties, it was agreed that the government should inform the Reichstag parties of legislative measures passed under the Enabling Act. For this purpose, a working committee was set up, co-chaired by Hitler and Centre Party chairman Kaas.
However, this committee met only three times without any major impact, and rapidly became a dead letter even before all other parties were banned.
Though the Act had formally given legislative powers to the government as a whole, these powers were for all intents and purposes exercised by Hitler himself.
After its passage, there were no longer serious deliberations in Cabinet meetings. Its meetings became more and more infrequent after 1934, and it never met in full after 1938.
Due to the great care that Hitler took to give his dictatorship an appearance of legality, the Enabling Act was renewed twice, in 1937 and 1941.
However, its renewal was practically assured since all other parties were banned.
Voters were presented with a single list of Nazis and Nazi-approved "guest" candidates under far-from-secret conditions.
In 1942, the Reichstag passed a law giving Hitler power of life and death over every citizen, effectively extending the provisions of the Enabling Act for the duration of the war.
Ironically, at least two, and possibly three, of the penultimate measures Hitler took to consolidate his power in 1934 violated the Enabling Act. On 14 February 1934, the Reichsrat, representing the states, was abolished by the "Law on the Abolition of the Reichsrat" even though Article 2 of the Enabling Act specifically protected the existence of both the Reichstag and the Reichsrat. It also can be argued that the Enabling Act had been breached two weeks earlier by the "Law on the Reconstruction of the Reich" (30 January 1934), which dissolved the state parliaments, transferred the states' sovereign powers to the Reich and effectively rendered the Reichsrat irrelevant. Article 2 stated that laws passed under the Enabling Act could not affect the institutions of either chamber.
In August, Hindenburg died, and Hitler seized the president's powers for himself in accordance with a law passed the previous day, an action confirmed via a referendum later that month.
Article 2 stated that the president's powers were to remain "undisturbed" (or "unaffected", depending on the translation), which has long been interpreted to mean that it forbade Hitler from tampering with the presidency. A 1932 amendment to the constitution made the president of the High Court of Justice, not the chancellor, first in the line of succession to the presidency—and even then on an interim basis pending new elections.
However, the Enabling Act provided no remedy for any violations of Article 2, and these actions were never challenged in court.
Something similar is happening in America now.
The groundwork is being laid for an absolute police state.
An absolute police state doesn't allow opposition of any kind.
I could make some predictions on how it could end but I would be guessing.
2023 America is much different than 1933 Germany.
1933 Germany was more than ripe for a dictator to take absolute control through intimidation and murder.
2023 American is more than ripe for a dictator to take absolute control.
History is repeating itself again.
America is becoming more and more of a total police state everyday.
Our system of government has been corrupted and compromised.
Government officials are controlled by blackmail and other means.

THE ENABLING ACT
The Enabling Act allowed the Reich government to issue laws without the consent of Germany’s parliament, laying the foundation for the complete Nazification of German society.
The law was passed on March 23, 1933, and published the following day. Its full name was the “Law to Remedy the Distress of the People and the Reich.”
The title of a law or governmental program can disguise its true intent.
Congress uses this tactic often to feed the people garbage disguised as a Joe Biden ice cream cone.
Looks good but is filled with corrupt garbage.
Laws are passed to limit freedom all the time.
They are disguised or hidden as amendments in bills to hide their intent and purpose from the public.
Compromised members of congress vote for these laws often telling you it better than nothing or they had to vote for the corrupt law because other things in the law had to bee passed etc etc.
Corrupt politicians feed on one another in congress and also suck the live out of people they don't really represent.
Our system of government is surely headed for a 1933 Germany moment.

CRITICAL THINKING QUESTIONS
- How can the title of a law or governmental program disguise its true intent?
- How can the use of emergency legislation or powers (in the face of a perceived crisis) be a warning sign?
- If a system of checks and balances becomes null and void what is available to stop a dictatorship from total control?
- Can you see why our country is on a real path to a total control dictatorship?
