Will he and his party be seen as one of the worst for enabling and permitting Trump, and not taking the extraordinary steps required of extraordinary times?

Maybe.

He can still merc that fucker and his homeboy jd. At least according to the highest court of the land. When if they change course, he'll be dead before he faces consequences, so fuck it my guy, piss on the tree of liberty with fascist kidney stones.

That would put speaker of the house Mike Johnson into office... So you'd usher in Christian Fundamentalism.

We already have that coming. But fuck it, merc him too. At this point who gives a shit? Biden is immune to the law right now, give these fucks a red wedding. The ideal of peaceable transition is dead and a government of/by the people is a Neolithic fossil. He should just go for broke and bring about the reckoning this country has needed since 1865.

Biden is immune to the law right now

People keep saying this, but this isn't true. SCOTUS very specifically made sure that "official actions" are defined by SCOTUS. And they have absolutely no definitions. They get to decide who's king. There's no way they would allow a Democrat the same privileges as their Nazi buddies.

That being said, joe should drone strike Mar a Lago with a tactical nuke yesterday.

I mean technically if we're going that route you could also pick off a few "troublesome" justices as well. I'm just not sure holding a gun to everyone's head is a good path to go down.

Not that I'm happy with the path we're heading down as is.

Until the GOP decides to stop holding a gun to everyone else's heads, we might need to hold a gun to theirs. It's a shit situation but appeasement NEVER works with these people. Force is necessary.

Not a chance. C’mon, Jack.

Look here, fat, he and cornpop can still turn this around.

I'd like him to pardon "illegal" aliens, but that's just me

Biden has deported 250x more people than Trump. I wouldn’t count on it.

Uh... after the way Latinos voted in the last election, I am now against immigration. We don't need more fascist enablers.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Um... Literally all ethnic groups voted for Trump. If you don't want fascist enablers you'll have to delete America off the map or delete the DNC off the map.

[–] [email protected] -2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Sure, sure. But only three groups had a vast majority vote for Trump. Whites, Latinos, and native Americans. I only give the natives a pass, plus they aren't represented in significant enough numbers to impact the election the way whites and Latinos did.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Do you have a source? Everything I'm finding says Trump got a higher share of latino voters than other Republicans but the majority still voted for Harris.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

You're right, 51% of Latinos voted harris. It was the 54% Latino men for trump figure I was thinking of.

And 60% of white men voted for trump, and 53% of white women. So tell me again what you're trying to say, and how its not racist?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago

I specifically mentioned whites as well, boo boo. Maybe focus that impotent anger on improving your reading comprehension.

They're allowed to pardon more than the one? Did The West Wing lie to me?
