The ex-Trump fixer says he was summarily jailed by Trump to silence him—and says SCOTUS declaring presidents immune would turn a second-term Trump into a dictator.
Are you hoping that Biden now sets a precedent by using his newfound king powers to assassinate his opponent? I want Trump to lose in a fair election and go to prison for a very long time. Biden using this “the president/king can do whatever he wants” would lead to an immediate civil war
What?! No! This is like a riddle. You assassinate the Supreme court first, THEN pack the court. Then have the new Supreme Court strip the presidency of these new powers.
The time for a president to not act like a king was before a corrupt court awarded the powers of a king to a president. The only way to turn it back now is for a non-corrupt king to break the corrupt court and then divest himself of powers before a corrupt king ascends to the throne.
What? No. The damage has been done and only Biden can do something about it, but he won’t because he’s a centrist and a coward. He’ll just sit around waiting to lose the election and say that he stood by his principles.
Accelerationism is voting for the fat orange idiot and waiting for the country to burn.
Weird how if Biden uses any of the power he has to stop Trump from becoming Fuhrer then it will cause a civil war, but when Trump actually uses that power to become Fuhrer he will face no obstacles.
I changed my mind about what I wanted to say, but was I wrong?
EDIT And I changed my mind again. If Trump is so dangerous, the only way to really stop him is for Biden to win decisively. Instead, he’s behind in fucking New Jersey in the latest polls. If he wins it’ll be razor thin, maybe only by the electoral college or a few counties, and then the fascist Supreme Court will give it to Trump anyway. Lose/lose, at least if Biden does something really funny before he resigns he could make sure Trump can’t become fuhrer.
The forces that produced Trump remain and will birth a new “strong man” for the masses to get behind, and the GOP does another attempt for Christian fascism.
I’m trans in a red state, they’re going to kill me, and the only option I’m allowed to vote for a genocidal mummy who is going to fucking lose because he’s too stubborn and old to realize he has to drop out. Meanwhile, smarmy fucking liberals want to tell me it’s too dangerous for Biden to use his unlimited executive power handed to him by the Court, and they’re frog marching me to my death.
So yeah, my first instinct was to wish Biden would do literally fucking anything to stop Trump, and he won’t and we’re all fucked.
EDIT And I’m a stupid fuck and hit enter too quickly sometimes and then think of more stuff I want to say or change my mind about what I wanted to say, and now that I was “caught” being a stupid indecisive fuck because I edited a few minutes after posting I lose this argument so whatever
You accused me of gaslighting people, like I’m some kind of abuser. That put me in a really bad place.
Here’s reality: Biden is going to get me killed because he won’t do what is best for the country and either resign or stop Trump permanently, and you all are telling me to support this genocidal mummy who would rather get me killed than do the right thing.
Nope. That’s not how it works. If you are purposefully going to withhold your vote in your own country because think you’re going to make some grassroots change to acts committed by another country- in another country.
then YOU are going to get you killed.
YOU have the ability to stop that shit. YOU can vote. Votes matter. And if your own safety and well being is worth the risk to make some stupid point-
Then you don’t get to put that on someone else. It’s FAR too late in the game to pretend you don’t know what’s at stake.
The great day of victory over Germany has come. Fascist Germany, forced to her knees by the Red Army and the troops of our Allies, has acknowledged herself defeated and declared unconditional surrender.
Yeah… after Stalin worked with Hitler to carve up Poland. It was only when Hitler attacked Stalin that he begrudgingly got on the Allied side. Poland still got fucked by that asshole though.
As if that’s not gonna happen when Trump uses said powers? Indecisiveness will doom America. Act! The Heritage foundation, Trump, and the Republicans do. They ask for forgiveness, maybe, but not permission.
America is doomed. Now both sides are calling for their chosen king to execute the other king. The experiment is over, hyper capitalism disguised as theology won. I want to vote for my chosen president in this election. This thread is telling me I should support my king executing the other king. Even if he gives up that power right after said execution, the president has made a precedent that the “checks and balances” are broken.
My prediction is that if an execution / forceful power grab is to happen, China will immediately invade the Phillipines and Taiwan, seeing the instability of the US, possibly Japan right after, since our new king will be too busy with the civil war or dismantling the government.
After that NATO and the EU will remove the US from any seat we have during said civil war, as we are no longer a democratic state.
The US arms companies will move to supplying the civil war in addition to just pumping Israel full of guns, maybe Russia too since it’s profitable and what even is regulation at this point.
By the time the US does stabilize, we’re a corporatocracy, as the only things left with real buying power are our tech companies and arms manufacturers, which at this point have their own mercenary security to defend against potential profit loss or have moved to other nations (Apple’s risk management division absolutely has these papers and plans drawn up seeing the political climate)
Canada will absolutely close its borders, and probably will be a hotbed of attempted immigration, ironically their right wing leaning government fighting the effects of our right wing government.
But yeah, we should yell at our king to assassinate the other potential king, instead of organizing, donating, campaigning and voting
That’s bullshit. Most people I have talked to believe trump should be sentenced accordingly to the felonies he has been convicted of, not executed.
Sure, blowhards in their online echo chambers love to bloviate about all the doom and gloom, but we have seen enough propaganda as of late to question the veracity of these dubious claims.
Most Americans are pretty much fed up with politics at this point. But the misinformation needs to stop.
Hell no, this “When they go low, we go high, bullshit!” is why Roe Vs. Wade was overturned and if we continue that nonsense it will be why Gay Marriage is overturned.
If you do crime and don’t get convicted, you’re innocent. That’s how the judicial system works and the Court just confirmed Nixon was right: when the president does it it’s not a crime.
The powers just granted to him by the Supreme Court.
Any “official act” done by the President is now constitutional. He couldn’t, like, shoot Trump at the next debate with a gun he smuggled on stage. What he could do is, as President from the Oval Office, order Trump’s motorcade to be droned.
You say incorrect and grossly exaggerated bullshit- and if I so much as even try and tell you that you’re wrong-
You get to troll with impunity.
Riiiiiight…
Well, I hate to break it to you, but again- shit isn’t going to work that way. You see, there’s a thing called accountability. And you clearly have proven that you have none. So while you think you have made yourself a fun little “gotcha” moment- you’ve really only proven that you can’t hold your own.
It’s easy to talk shit when no one asks you to back it up.
Here’s what fucking Supreme Court Justice Sotomayor said in her dissent:
“The President of the United States is the most powerful person in the country, and possibly the world. When he uses his official powers in any way, under the majority’s reasoning, he now will be insulated from criminal prosecution. Orders the Navy’s Seal Team 6 to assassinate a political rival? Immune. Organizes a military coup to hold onto power? Immune. Takes a bribe in exchange for a pardon? Immune. Immune, immune, immune.” Sotomayor went on to write, “In every use of official power, the President is now a king above the law,” she wrote.
Biden can kill all his enemies and that’s the law now. As long as it is an official act, it’s constitutional.
Yet somehow Biden is powerless to stop him. 🤔

Yes but my cabbage is still on the wrong side of the river
You have the leave the fox with it.
But Clarence Thomas keeps eating the fox.
He has enough troops to hit Congress, the Senate, the Supreme Court, and anyone else he wants at the same time.
The irony it would be if he called the Official act, “The Purge of Fascism”
No one would try to bring about an impeachment vote, as they know they would be dead or disappeared before it took place.
Because history is full of examples of people willingly giving up absolute authority.
Magna carta?
The time for a president to not act like a king was before a corrupt court awarded the powers of a king to a president. The only way to turn it back now is for a non-corrupt king to break the corrupt court and then divest himself of powers before a corrupt king ascends to the throne.
That seems logical, but can we try wishful thinking first?
Ah got it

Redundant.

Weird how if Biden uses any of the power he has to stop Trump from becoming Fuhrer then it will cause a civil war, but when Trump actually uses that power to become Fuhrer he will face no obstacles.
It will still cause a civil war. Also, that was a wild edit from “you’ll fucking wish Biden assassinated Trump”
I changed my mind about what I wanted to say, but was I wrong?
EDIT And I changed my mind again. If Trump is so dangerous, the only way to really stop him is for Biden to win decisively. Instead, he’s behind in fucking New Jersey in the latest polls.

They tried that when Trump lost, people gravitated back to Trump
And liberals can’t actually confront those forces, because some of those forces are the ones who donate to them. Yeah, I get it.
I mean, they’re .ml gaslightings to be expected
edit: Lmao, 5 replies and I can see none of them. Sorry Tankies, I’m way ahead of you
I’m trans in a red state, they’re going to kill me, and the only option I’m allowed to vote for a genocidal mummy who is going to fucking lose because he’s too stubborn and old to realize he has to drop out.

It’s always so easy to get upset by a narrative you create on your own. I mean, adhering to reality is so much work! Right?
You accused me of gaslighting people, like I’m some kind of abuser. That put me in a really bad place.
Here’s reality: Biden is going to get me killed because he won’t do what is best for the country and either resign or stop Trump permanently, and you all are telling me to support this genocidal mummy who would rather get me killed than do the right thing.
Maybe that makes me a little fucking stressed?
Nope. That’s not how it works. If you are purposefully going to withhold your vote in your own country because think you’re going to make some grassroots change to acts committed by another country- in another country.

Just letting readers know:
More accurate: Socialists will always choose to side with fascists over liberals, because they really just want authoritarianism.
Though it’s probably more accurate to say “tankie” isntead of “socialist”, but since you’re referring to tankies as socialists, I’ll do the same.
-Josef Stalin, May 9, 1945
Yeah… after Stalin worked with Hitler to carve up Poland. It was only when Hitler attacked Stalin that he begrudgingly got on the Allied side. Poland still got fucked by that asshole though.
Yes. That happened.
I mean, 2020 happened, he lost in a fair election. He did do crimes that should have landed him jail.
Now what? You’re saying it’s gonna happen this time?
As if that’s not gonna happen when Trump uses said powers? Indecisiveness will doom America. Act! The Heritage foundation, Trump, and the Republicans do. They ask for forgiveness, maybe, but not permission.
Indecisiveness = not assassinating the opponent?
America is doomed. Now both sides are calling for their chosen king to execute the other king. The experiment is over, hyper capitalism disguised as theology won.

Yes. Pretty much. Exactly. The alternative is Trump. So, yeah. Glad someone else recognizes America as we knew it is over.
You know the thought experiment where you go back in time and kill Hitler? We’re there. Take out Hitler.
The alternative is to do what Weimar Germany did and pretend it’s not happening, or, it won’t be that bad.
Learn from history.
That’s bullshit. Most people I have talked to believe trump should be sentenced accordingly to the felonies he has been convicted of, not executed.

Immunity only benefits criminals. Biden is not a criminal so doesn’t get any benefit from the ruling.
The ruling only benefits criminal Presidents like Trump.
Criminals have to be convicted.
If you do crime and don’t get convicted, you’re innocent. That’s how the judicial system works and the Court just confirmed Nixon was right: when the president does it it’s not a crime.
What powers would you have him use to stop him?

You clearly don’t understand how this works. And I’m not going to waste the time to explain it to you. It’s way too late in the game for that shit.
You’re entirely wrong about how that works. Just know that.
🤡
Cool, so you’re an admitted troll. It’s always a good thing when the gifts wrap themselves. I no longer have to take you seriously.
Your entire argument was “no ur rong” and so I responded with as much effort as you gave me.
So to summarize-
You say incorrect and grossly exaggerated bullshit- and if I so much as even try and tell you that you’re wrong-
You get to troll with impunity.
Riiiiiight…
