Biden: "I can't fire a postmaster general who actively tried to sabotage the election against me in 2020 because it would be against the law."
Trump: " I fired someone who SCOTUS directly said i can't fire because some people openly bribed me"
“Illegally fired” means you rolled over and resigned in response to a threat
Oh, I get to say it this time. A dog can't play basketball!
I feel like if a democrat did something like this fox news et al would be screaming screaming screaming and there would be violent riots. Why is everyone else so docile?
Woke: Get illegally fired and act like you were fired illegally. Keep going to work. Let security block your entry. Argue that you still work there because the order to fire you was illegal. When you're arrested, take the matter to court and get legal standing on the fact that your firing was illegal.
Broke: Get illegally fired and whine on social media about it.
DEI?
Do what a Trump official would do, refuse to leave. What are they going to do?
Earlier today, the DC police forcibly removed the employees of an independent agency after the employees called said police to get the illegal attempted-invaders removed.
administration fears accountability
Pfffft. That is so fucking bullshit. No they don't. They don't fear accountability or responsibility. This administration is lead by a 34-count convicted felon/rapist, a two-time impeached, failed businessman of a crook. What the fuck does he have to lose in terms of credibility that makes him think twice of the actions he's done?
Sure he fears accountability, all profligates do especially when that accountability comes in the form of extreme violence. Ooh maybe we can give out loto tickets to decide who lives or dies, only two get to live one though one will get their legs crippled. Truly I need to stop playing New Vegas
He straight up admitted on air that the election was rigged, and there hasn't been a peep from anyone
And what did Harris and the Dems do? Nothing.
What did Trump do in 2021? Cause an insurrection.
I had literally not heard of this so looked up the video. Fucking wild, man!
He even praises Elon over it...
I'd seen that one and I understand how he could be referring to the Dems as "them" but the FIFA/Olympics one is more damning imo.
Yup. "They rigged the election and now I'm president again."
So fucking nonchalantly too.
Just illegal, fascist things.
And nothing will be done.
Dems are just going to sit there with frowny faces, say bold things but take it up the ass.
Most blatantly and openly venal miserable and horrible attempt at an "administration" in the last 60yrs... Likely in US history.
Helluva legacy for you Chump! Good one!
🙄 🙄 🖕 🖕 🖕
The fact that approval ratings for Trump are still as high as they are while the approval for the only other far, far, far lesser evil you can vote, the Democrats, is sinking, does not give me any hope whatsoever for the US, were I naive enough to believe that the next elections that matter could come soon enough or that they would still remain legitimate. The US no longer has a trace of Democracy except for the mask it wears, it is at the same or even lower level than Russia's.
All that he's missing is a war America is involved in, not related to the trade tariffs. We'll find out which country he wants to go to war with soon.
Canada, Greenland or Panama. He's still deciding. Give him time it's been a busy two months!
I wouldn’t be surprised if it were Central America, first. They already lack strong governments and global positioning. Especially with the cartels actively holding back progress.
That is one of my more annoying thoughts. In his child-like rampaging through the most powerful office in the world, he might accidentally do something good like wipe out the cartels or give support to a country that really needs it on the global scale. The cost will be extremely high. Like through the twisted Nazi experiments, we ended up learning a ton about mental health and brain responses that... Well, it's probably the only way to discover some of those things. But the methodology is unthinkable.
He may have some success in beating the cartels back, somewhat. But overall he's not going to support any country down there, he's going to send the military to bomb the fuck out of what little infrastructure they have, cause large amounts of collateral damage and death, and seize whatever is of value. We've already seen this playbook in the middle east.
I didn't really do a good job in my comment. I meant fostering support by others, just like Ukraine. Against his whatever crazy agenda. But I totally agree.
Yeah, Panama also side steps the NATO problem.
