Let's hear what you have to say to me.

If there's nothing authoritarian about his agenda, why did he fire the Inspectors General?

Fired watchdogs can’t be reinstated despite Trump’s ‘obvious’ law breaking, court decides

A federal judge determined the removed inspectors general could not show irreparable harm.

www.govexec.com

He's not authoritarian.

Why did he fire the Inspectors General?

Under the Inspector General Act of 1978 (as amended by the 2008 Inspector General Reform Act), the president has broad authority to remove an establishment IG.

When did Congress authorize $40 Billion to Argentina?

The Trump administration mirrors the 1995 Mexican peso bailout under President Clinton, where the ESF provided $20 billion in swaps (plus guarantees). That action faced lawsuits and congressional pushback but was upheld as constitutional.

Why did his DOJ indict Comey without evidence?

It was not done without evidence.

Which president has successfully intimated media sources?

Obama.

Such delightful people.

Such delightful people.

Shit that one interaction totally changes the course of history wiping out the fact that 7+ million citizens peacefully marched yesterday against the worst POTUS in generations.

since you backtracked on J6 you have no moral high ground here.

What I find interesting is that all of those people who are dressed up in fantasyland garb have actually in the public square ed Donald John Trump as their King!
Why would they subject themselves to Trump being King over them during their “fantasyland reign” idea being promoted in the public square?

When In real life Donald John Trump is factually/actually The 47TH to Duly Elected POTUS. He will not be reigning for a lifetime and his heir will not be the next king.

Voting for a President is very different than the crowning of a king when the subjects have no say who will be Crowned and put upon a Throne to Reign over them.

Trump is not a king. He is not reigning as a king. Fortunately, I do not live in that “fantasyland reign” idea being promoted in the public square. Thankfully!

Our Constitution will keep Trump in check. He will not have absolute and sole command over our government.

That is the desire of Trump’s current opposition party. imho

Wow! You seem lost. Let me help.

1. This is not actually about a king. The king reference is to help us all get in touch with our American heritage. If you recall, the American revolution was about renouncing the king and establishing a government by the people, for the people. The issue now is the most of America (75% by one poll) says we are losing our democracy; with most believing we sliding toward autocracy.

No one is suggesting Trump will be a king, but most of us are concerned he will be, if left unchecked, an autocrat. A monarch is a type of autocrat, so quibbling over whether you should take the "No Kings" title literally is silly as king v autocrat is a distinction without a difference.

2. You have far too much faith in a piece of paper. The Constitution is completely worthless unless people are willing to risk their lives, or at least their congressional seat in its defense. Today, we have seen very few heroes and far more enablers, including and especially leadership in the other two branched of government designed to keep the executive in check.

The piece of paper called the Constitution will not stop Trump. First, he has no respect for it, and second, he pushes the limits of the rule of law every chance he gets, which is why he continually gets shot down in court. Unfortunately, over the past 18 months the SCOTUS has gone extra-constitutional (overriding precedent and creating to new law) on us enabling him to get by these pesky lower court decisions. OTH, the SCOTUS has no power to stop Trump, even if they wanted to, without the DoJ willing to prosecute or the Senate willing to convict on impeachment.

3. Trump IS a wannabe autocrat. Left unchecked, that is what he will become. Do you not understand the Trump is following Viktor Orban's blueprint for using the levers of government to neuter its constitution? First, Orban was a consultant to Project 2025, which is the blueprint for this plan. Then, its chief architect, Russel Voight, was named OMB Director, the actual position in government that allows you to implement such a plan. As per Project 2025, Trump/Voight are replacing line level government professionals with loyalists, nuetering those the would say 'no' with enablers.

Just as Orban did, Trump has already attacked, with a great deal of success, the institutions that could stop him, including the press, academic institutions and the courts (including attorneys). He is also ridding the military of those not loyal to him.

Trump showed us all last time that he can not accept the results of free and fair elections and does not want to leave office. There is no indication, short of a health issue (which is a real possibility) that he will just walk away when his term is done. Who is going to stop him from staying? I want names.

Footage from a No Kings event yesterday

It seems to have really upset you and your fellow cult members. Good enough for now.

 

[upsideguy]

The No Kings rally mobilized 7M people, or over 2% of the US population and a much, much higher percentage of those of voting age.

A large part of your population taking to the streets can fall dictators, bring economies to a halt and collapse governments. You need 3.5% of the population to change the world. The rally showed they can do that, if necessary.

It Takes 3.5% of the Population to Change the World

Research by Harvard political scientist Erica Chenoweth has shown that movements which actively engage just 3.5% of the population rarely fail to bring about change. This finding comes from studyin…

Why would I be upset? I enjoyed watching the “event”. I found it interesting. The reality is….it changed absolutely nothing. Trump is still the President of the United States. And he will be until the end of his term.

The USA has never had a King.

so why have a No Kings day ?

doesn't make sense

I just read ... Karine Jean-Pierre wrote, "'You know what? I’m going to become an independent. I don’t think I can stomach being in the Democratic Party anymore.'"

good for her !

There is no one out there deputing the fact trump is still POTUS. Did you and Trix get an email giving you these talking points this morning?
I tactually made small changes around the country. For instance my wife joined the Protest in NY and had a great time. She was an apathetic voter before and now feels like she is involved.

Um, that was in response to Biden being kicked to the curb not the protests from yesterday. another lie by the MAGA team.

So you both just happen to be repeating the same talking points.

It was not meant to change anything in the short run.... this is a long term play, similar to the Tea Parties of 2010, but actually on a much grander and more organized scale. Again, 3.5% taking to the streets will change the world. This group showed us they are capable of doing so.
