You know, that technically, when he violated his oath of office the first time, he resigned from his position. Once you violate your oath of office you no longer hold that office. You can do whatever you want to him, worse case scenario you have to wait for a pardon
I wish the law worked that way, but there is no technicality that violating an oath of office triggers a resignation. Resignation is resignation.
It's abdication. He's already relinquished power. The reigns just need to be taken
If anything, the interpretation of "official acts" by the Supreme Court explicitly shields him. He cannot be held legally responsible for any decision carried out as president, which is terrifying.
Don't miss next time.
Yeah but these laws are only meaningful if they’re enforced
I asked Merrick Garland if Trump had done anything wrong and he just shrugged and said "There's no way for us to know for sure so we didn't want to take any chances by pressing charges."
Four years later, I feel like he made the right call. Imagine if the Biden DOJ had actually tried to press charges on Trump. Just imagine... I think we can all agree that their prudence and restraint really helped the US dodge a bullet.
Lmao had to read it a few times. Ty
Oooh! Hey ask him where our fucking unredacted Mueller Reports are.
I've never looked at it from that perspective. Now that I've tried, my nose and ears are bleeding, so that's gotta be a good thing, right?
Meaningful laws for thee, laughable pretense for me
