Doesn’t even know the presidential oath he pledged.

You proud now MAGAts? Does this make you proud?

    He knows. He just hasn’t consolidated enough power yet to outright openly say he doesn’t give a shit. But keep waving those protest signs around guys. I’m sure that’ll slow him down.

      That’s the issue isn’t it? Things aren’t bad enough that armed rebellion would be successful. If you tried you’d die and the vast majority will simply call you a terrorist and move on. Maybe you’ll get some popularity like luigi while the state works on executing you.

      So instead people protest, but at best that may swing one or two votes in congress, but not enough to stop anything.

      But as things get progressively worse and the state becomes more authoritarian revolution will also be harder as many will be tossed into a gulag before they can take up arms.

      Plus any armed resistance will be used as an excuse to declare martial law.

      Seems like a no win scenario. The current best chance is he has a stroke and Vance fails to govern effectively

        The solution is to work towards forming and building up antifascist guerilla resistance blocks, so that when shit really starts getting too real for people, resistance groups are there ready to go

        Yes, it of course would have been better to do it all earlier, but as you said…

        It’s super frustrating, for sure. You can plainly see what’s gonna happen, and yet most people are too clueless to support it

      The only time when “love and unity” isn’t the correct answer he uses it.

    Oh he literally forgot the oath of the presidency? Sounds like a good reason to invoke the 25th amendment.

    I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.

    -President Trump, just this year.

    I always go back to that early coronavirus briefing where a reporter questioned his authority to dictate state government lockdown policies and he just sat there stunned, repeating “when you’re the president your authority is total because you have total authority, it’s total…” It’s been clear for years that this fucking guy never understood the job description, and rather than learning anything from experience, he’s having it rewritten. The constitution isn’t going to save us from that.

    They don’t care. All they care about is their in-group is strong and the out-group is punished. They’re shitty people.
