I think a president and enough political supporters could turn the US into a socialist or communist state, a president like that could at least make some incremental changes, but with the elections and state functions so controlled by capitalists and bourgeois interests it seems unlikely in the US political climate. I don’t think it’s impossible though and we should use all means possible to help, but issues we face such as climate change and wealth inequality require more substantial changes that aren’t likely to be passed and implemented quickly enough within the current structure to adequately address them in time.
So you think the US would become a one-party socialist country (or a multi-party socialist country, but all parties work cooperatively under a common cause a lot like China)?
Maybe in time or with better political education, but if a president suddenly tried to do that anywhere in the near future I would guess it could cause conservative states to cecede like the civil war to defend capitalism, or at least some kind of violent conflict is likely to happen.
What about a communist president who advocates for constitutional reform?

You really need to learn theory. Your comments lack any and all sorts of material analyses and reek of vibes based understanding of politics
