Donald Trump Enters Lame-Duck Phase of Presidency

Donald Trump has entered the lame-duck phase of his presidency, sparking predictions of a volatile final two years of his term. He has repeatedly claimed a right to run for a third term, asserting that he was cheated in previous elections.

Observers suggest the president may take dramatic actions to cement his legacy and resist political decline. These potential actions include defying court orders or invoking the Insurrection Act.

Analysts identify significant risks during this period, including the possibility of Trump issuing extensive pardons for associates and individuals involved in the January 6th events. There are also concerns regarding the potential use of nuclear weapons against Iran.
