So Cheetos-Face has done a lot of questionable shit. In his first week. First there was the executive order to do away with birthright citizenship, which has already been stopped due to being blatantly unconstitutional. In order to amend the Constitution, you have to get a 2/3’s majority in both houses, and then get it ratified by 3/4’s of the states. Not going to happen. There was also a proposed amendment that would enable him to serve a third term. Again, it’s not going to happen.
As concerning as these appear to be, I’m not really worried yet. They’re being done by executive order, which means at worse case scenario they’ll only last till the next president (it is in fact normal for an incoming president to undo most if not all of his/her predecessor's executive orders.
But so far none of his ‘orders’ have been through congress. They’ll be gone at the next president. If not before then, as some of them ( like the birthright citizenship one) won’t survive the scrutiny of the courts.
And the 22nd Amendment hasn’t been repealed yet. The worst case scenario is that this madness will end in January 2029.
