Republicans have been working on a 30+ year project. 60+ years project.
So what?
The people been working on a 248+ years project. In two years it will be 250. The world’s been working on its own projects too. I like smart bets. I’m not betting on the NAZIs.
Can someone ELI Not American?
They’re mocking the fact that the only actions being taken against our authoritarian President have been legal charges.
Our government is designed with three co-equal branches to prevent the consolidation of power of a king. Actions taken by one branch must be checked for constitutionally by the other two. Trump is currently using executive orders (temporary measures of execution) to make these extreme changes to our government.
Congressional Democrats forced a 15-day vote on the constitutionality of Trump’s emergency executive order. The Republican majority in Congress redefined the congressional calendar as one single day to avoid the vote entirely, effectively disabling Congress.
Now Democrats are bringing cases to the courts to challenge the executive orders. There have been 49 cases so far, injunctions have been issued, and most are now being appealed to the Supreme Court. Trump is continuing to defy federal court orders, so there is a contempt of court hearing on Tuesday. Trump himself cannot be charged with a crime, so at most the members of his administration will be charged.
Removing the President requires a majority vote in the House, and 2/3 vote in the Senate. That has never been accomplished in our 250 year old system.
Thanks!
I mean, there were two actual assassination attempts.
Don’t have to be an American to understand the constitution is more than just a piece of paper.
Eventually Trump will tread on the Constitution enough to trigger the Second Amendment required response.
The deck has been stacked too hard to fast.
