Option A: have a real court that judges against you and points out all the crimes you commit.
Option B: A court that judges in your favor and makes up rules to support your actions after the fact.
Hmm, which court does a dictator want?
Trump admin: what’s the rush? He’s not going anywhere.
Great for trump. He can just declare whatever crisis to do even more stupid things and grab more absolute power.
The Constitution according to Republicans:
We The People…words words GET TO HAVE AS MANY GUNS AS WE WANT words words…The End.
I’m not a fan of vigilantism or mob justice save for the removal of objectively destructive and tyrannical leadership. Too many ways to get it wrong.
Ah, catch a predator style. Gotcha. Removed my comment because it was wrong. So far anyway.
Their only interpretation of the 2nd is “the constitution says I get to have an arsenal and nobody can do anything about it.”
If you get a “smart one” they start spouting off supreme court and other rulings that went in their favor, and if faced with the argument that the Founding Fathers could not and would not ever have conceived of millions of guns in private hands with people having arsenals of weapons capable of modern day destruction - and especially if the Founders had been faced with school, workplace, or other random massacres - they would not have so vaguely worded the 2nd Amendment. Then they just say “well the constitution says I can, so eat it.”
They’re perfectly happy to let society pay for their hobby.
He doesn’t lie about what he wants to do.
He lies about his accomplishments.
It’s been like this since his first term. He’s not lying about invading Greenland or punishing Canada into being the 51st state. He absolutely wants to. Assuming (hopefully) that both these endeavors never materialize, he will claim that these threats accomplished some other goal that was made up on the spot. Which will be a lie.
Yeah, the excerpt in period script that says “We the People…” and nothing else. Pretty much all they know of the constitution anyway besides the 2nd Amendment.
It’s like a car covered with bumper stickers. It’s mental illness. Unhealthy fear and rage leaking out around the edges and corrupting the facade of decency.
Some version of a window-wide US flag with the angry eagle, a Gadsden snake sticker, a gun maker sticker, an AR silhouette variant sticker with a juvenile anti-lib slogan like “my AR says fuck your lib tears” and of course the NRA sticker and a military service branch sticker.

Gravy Seal. Proclaiming what a badass he is but probably starts wheezing just making it to the table from the Cracker Barrel parking lot.
I have an acquaintance that works for an old money, very wealthy family from oil money. The kind that influences regional as well as national politics. He worked for them during the last major recession in the late ‘00s. He basically said that his employer and all their buddies were running all over the world buying everything they could “like it is a fire sale” during the recession.
So yeah. This is how we get more billionaires, more oligarchs, and more meta national corpo monopolies where one company controls multiple brand names.
Almost like someone actively causing instability with bad economic policy and stirring global political instability would cause it to go down.
The medical misinformation led to the measles outbreak. It’s not in parallel, it’s in series.
I’ts all good bruddah, how you doin’?
Gonna blow up the database as many times as they blow up SpaceX rockets.
Oh man, this whole sexy she-animal thing wasn’t really a thing when I was a kid. Yeah, they had anthropomorphized animals, like “Miss Bunny” from Bambi or even Guinevere as a literal fox on Disney’s Robin Hood , but nothing really designed to be attractive as some kind of crossover. Even in the ‘80s if they wanted someone sexy they made it a human, like Jem or something. Wasn’t until the later ‘80s and ‘90s that I think that changed to getting more “furry” like.
