All he can do is interpret the amendment in a way that assumes the less restrictive interpretation. Even his cum guzzling SCOTUS sycophants can’t justify that . 4 Quote

Unless, of course, SCOTUS says he has every right to make changes 'cause he's POTUS - but that would create a real problems. I'm not putting anything past him or his cabal. He's going to make Nixon look saintly. Before the states vote to ratify I think they have to vote to even meet to do it. 3 Quote

But maybe Trump's right? Hear me out...he gets his wish and after a lengthy process lasting 4 years, he gets his wish and it is ratified the day after his term ends. He is immediately deported to Germany by the next administration. 5 Quote

SwimOdin Posted December 11, 2024 Posted December 11, 2024 He also talked about annexing Mexico. I hate to tell him, then Mexicans in the country illegally would be…legal. They would be deported to…the USA. It’s a 4D chess situation. 1 5 Quote
Dark_Cloud_Overhead Posted December 11, 2024 Posted December 11, 2024 (edited) Chris Wray announced he's stepping down as FBI director just before the guy who basically promised to fire him takes office. So much for do not obey in advance. No worries at least about anyone injuring their spines in Washington, since looks as if no one there's got any these days.

Cuz she broke with the rest of her family a long time ago, and I don't recall her ever of having been accused of any kind of fraud. I lump her in with the 'resist libs' grifters, those who got popular and then monetized their adjacency to relevance (e.g. the "mueller she wrote" lady). The folks where every other post they make is "[comment about the latest shocking news] and what it means for Trump and Democracy. If you subscribe to my website, you can read my analysis in full." Unless I'm totally mistaken and she's not charging anyone anything to subscribe to her. But people who use that framing just trigger me, it's literally DJT in reverse. Quote
Dark_Cloud_Overhead Posted December 12, 2024 Posted December 12, 2024 Where's the grift though? She's not fooling or tricking anyone; she's just sharing her viewpoints. If people want to subscribe or even pay her, or buy her books to read them, that's no different than subscribing to the local newspaper. There's absolutely no grift in any of that. 3 Quote
Raptorpat Posted December 12, 2024 Posted December 12, 2024 Maybe grift is a strong word, but I guess I disagree. She was an interesting figure in that she's from the inside and all that background, and it was interesting to hear her viewpoint about him and their ongoing family drama up to a point. Sympathetic figure and the schadenfreude and all that. But the eventual shift to every tweet just teasing the tip of some story about every twist and turn to hawk of her subscription-based website to read the full thing was such a turn-off. It feels like a very Trumpy turn to take, like proof that they are related. But I'm also probably overharsh because I kind of resent that whole chronically online "resist lib" ecosphere that I'm lumping her in with. 3 Quote

She isn't a grifter by any metric, but I do get your repulsion to her tactics. For me, it's always been obvious that she wants to take the Trumps down in revenge for how they destroyed her father and she isn't above dangling carrots to keep us interested. 2 Quote

discolé monade Posted December 12, 2024 Posted December 12, 2024 Those pardoned Thursday had been convicted of nonviolent crimes such as drug offenses and turned their lives around, White House lawyers said. They include a woman who led emergency response teams during natural disasters; a church deacon who has worked as an addiction counselor and youth counselor; a doctoral student in molecular biosciences; and a decorated military veteran. i want to see every weed slinger, any grower , and caught with x amount of marijuana, pardoned. 4 Quote

We all know why they did it, but that doesn't change the fact that even Hitler didn't crow about being Time's Person of the Year as if it were an achievement. Making Trump Person of the Year is only going to fuel his erratic behavior rather than offer some kind of insight into the man who we all know too well. 3 Quote
