But like. Are you stopping him? He's been doing shady and illegal shit for ages, and yall can point out its illegal and shady, but like. Are any of those critics actually stopping him or nah
Like please, I want some good news, and Moral High Ground does not count
He should be wary. Lest such fuckery become a prescident.
Oh, that’s what it takes to finally call him a dictator?
Some days you see this shit and wonder why you participate in a meaningless system that lets convicts be President.
Like as naked apes on a floating rock in eternal space I gotta wake up every morning to go to work and "be a good worker" while this motherfucker breaks laws and wants to make up shit as he goes.
Cool. No wonder I have no more motivation to be a good worker anymore.
Sometimes I hope the asteroid wipes us out in 2032
I'm rooting for the AI ending. Maybe something superior can be born out of humanity so we served some kind of purpose.
i'm rooting for the 'people finally stood up and did away with the sociopaths, ushering in a new utopia' ending.
stop being cowards making bad jokes.
I remember when I was young and optimistic and believed this was possible. The humanity at its best ending. I honestly don't have that kind of faith anymore and doubt I can get it back now.
Give the cephalopods the reigns
I declare Trump's presidency void. He isn't obeying laws; he's no longer a legitimate president. He is a dictator. And a hypocrite any time he enforces laws of any kind.
To clarify, I think someone who has broken laws CAN enforce them without being a hypocrite, but only if they have taken accountability for the laws they have broken.
they don't care if they're hypocrites and listening to you children say that over and over is tiring. do something.
What are you doing about it?
trying to explain to the painfully naive what we ALL have to do. you should be thanking me and joining the chorus. i'm trying to fucking help you.
This is the oath presidents must make before exercising any official powers or duties:
I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.
He has been very obviously doing the complete opposite of that. The GOP has some pretty flexible mental gymnasts in their circus, but I don't think even they will be able to dodge this one.
My understanding of the supreme court ruling was that he has immunity only for "official acts". So... If he violates this oath, he isn't authorized to exercise any official powers of the presidency, and thus anything he's doing isn't official! Right? I hope so. It'd give me something to look forward to as we suffer through the next 4 years.
Maybe Trump thought execute meant kill the office of the president
Wait, is that Donald "I can declassify documents by thinking it" Trump who is tweeting?
