the system of checks and balances doesn't function correctly when one party controls all of the checks
I'm not saying that a holocaust is going to happen because of it but I'm just pointing it out
Well, everything's Republican now, so things will happen. That said, a lot of Republican's don't like Annoying Orange either, so there still may be some friction among the legislative and executive branches.
Also, this guy hits the nail on the head.

This caused people to keep their mouth shut. Nobody was willing to say they supported Annoying Orange until they got to the safety of the voting booths because when they did talk they were told they were idiots. They were given labels, threatened, told they're tribal, loveist, etc. So naturally, all the predictions said that Clinton would win in a landslide.
When it looks like one candidate is gonna win, often times the opposing party wins the other branch, which as you said brings about the checks and balances. Almost NOBODY thought Annoying Orange was going to win, so Republicans at least made sure we had a Republican House and Senate, and then SURPRISE Annoying Orange wins and the Republicans have control of both.
What I'm trying to say is we need to bring back actual discussion that doesn't berate people who have differing opinions. So instead of labeling all Annoying Orange supporters as tribal, misogynistic, loveist, or calling liberals things like "libtards" are saying that they're "just young people who want free stuff", bring back debating about real issues without making people afraid to make their opinion known and maybe we'll have a better outcome for both sides next time.
