Biden violates the US Constitution on his first day


1. The classification of Pandemic is still specious and does nothing for your argument.
2. That would not be due process by any stretch of the imagination.
3. It would be akin to martial law.
 

And Wyoming, a bastion of the left, had women's voting rights long before the 19th.

I guess history shows that neither side is as evil as the other side claims.

Good point. A theory I read about as to why states like Wyoming were ahead of the curve on this issue was the frontier: that women in the west were not nearly as sheltered as eastern women, contributing more obviously to the farm, ranch, whatever. Harder to argue in Wyoming than in New England that they did not deserve the vote.
 
There is merit to that argument. It was also a matter of necessity. The territory of Alaska had similar attitudes towards women and native Alaskans during that time. By the 1920s all the schools in Alaska were integrated for the same reason. Being on the "frontier" they lacked the resources necessary for segregation. When you can only afford to build one school, then it doesn't matter what you are, everyone attends that school.

The 1920s was also when the KKK began a resurgence within the Democratic Party and Democratic Party got into bed with NAZI Germany. FYI, President Wilson was vehemently opposed to the Nineteenth Amendment.
 

Was the good point that history shows that neither side is as evil as the other side claims ?

Or something else.

One of the first things we need is to quit demonizing each other.
 

BTW: Hard to argue at all that they didn't deserve to vote.

My guess is that both left wing and right wing men were sexists.
 
Really? Explain how democrats got into bed with the Nazis in the 20s. The only thing close to that that I remember were some dumb US Commies who went soft on Germany after Adolf's pact with Stalin. And strangely, after the war a lot of democrats were persecuted in the McCarthy era as "premature anti-fascists," i.e., people who opposed the Nazis before Pearl Harbor. And of course, a lot of KKK-leaning types switched to the GOP after the civil rights laws were passed, as LBJ predicted. The Klan currently seems to admire Trump, as do US Nazi types. Time changes things.
 
Your deliberate lies do not match up with actual history. Here is a photograph of the a 1924 Democrat presidential candidate, Henry Ford, being awarded Germany's highest civilian award for his contributions to Hitler's Third Reich. The Democratic Party thought that if the US followed NAZI Germany's example we could pull ourselves out of the depression. After all, Germany's economy was thriving during the 1930s and the Democratic Party wanted to use Germany as a model for the US. Which FDR did with his own version of concentration camps and violating the rights of every American.

 


Ooh! So we're doing presidents who violate the constitution on their first day?

GOODIE! Next, do Trump!
 
Ford was an idiotic outlier. Most in the left opposed fascism, to the extent that some went to fight it in Spain. FDR screwed up big time with Japanese internment, but it’s not as if conservatives were manning the barricades in their defense. Again, it was the left that was targeted by McCarthyism in the 40s and 50s. As late as the late 60s I had to sign a loyalty oath to get a job with United Airlines, swearing that I had not been a member or supporter of a huge number of progressive groups, most involving labor or civil rights. But I have no doubt that some on the left admired both Hitler’s and Stalin’s socialistic policies, much like Italians famously said that Mussolini “made the trains run on time.” Big deal. People on the right admired some of Trump’s policies, crediting him for the economy despite his insults to so many Americans and advocacy of war crimes, and they admired Reagan’s anti-communism even as they ignored his financing mass murder in Central America and support of dictators elsewhere.

Are you referring to something specific that Trump did on his first day in office? Or is it just another case of TDS?
Nah. Pretty much from day one, through every single day of his administration, he violated the constitution. But he has a little R by his name, so that’s fine by you, I guess.
 
Actually, it was the left doing the targeting. That includes the leftists in Hollywood who blackballed writers and actors, to the Democrat-controlled House Committee on Un-American Activities.

Senator McCarthy had nothing to do with the criminal acts committed by the Democrats in charge of the HOUSE Committee on Un-American Activities. Or are you not capable of comprehending the difference between the House and the Senate? Everything Sen. McCarthy did, which included investigating the DoD and DoS, was both legal and constitutional. What Senator McCarthy did not do was to violate the rights of Americans like the Democrat filth in the House did.

Then you can easily name what Trump did that violated the US Constitution, just like I did with Biden. Because if you can't be specific, like I was, then it is just mentally-deranged behavior inconsistent with reality. Like your stereotypical TDS.

He violated the Appointments Clause, he violated the Separation of Powers Clause, he violated the First Amendment, he banned bump stocks without the needed Congressional approval, he bypassed Congress over COVID relief bills (which was needed but still unconstitutional), and he violated the Emoluments Clause from day one.
 
None of that is true obviously, or the Democrat filth in the House would have used any one of those items you mentioned when they sought to impeach him - twice. Since they never did, even in their mentally-deranged state, they recognized that they had no case and it was pure lies that they themselves manufactured. Like the Russian Collusion conspiracy that Hillary manufactured and the Democrat sycophants in the media ran with that intentional lie for four years.

You really have to learn to stop believing your own manufactured leftist propaganda.
 

You know, I knew better than to engage with you. I could point to the sky and tell you that a Democrat told you it was blue, and you'd deny, deny, deny.

Done here. Go peddle your fake partisan outrage to somebody that has time to fool with you.
 
Oh, yeah, people like John Wayne were leftists. It was the Hollywood establishment that banned actors, not its liberal side, as those were the ones banned, though some, like Elia Kazan named names. (Some have pointed that "On the Waterfront" was his defense of what he did.). And "McCarthyism" is a term that applies to both Sen. Joe's exploits in the Senate and what HUAC might have done.

Of course, because everyone knows that Democrats are mentally-deranged habitual liars, incapable of distinguishing between their manufactured lies and reality. If you are going to cite someone, be sure it is someone credible, which obviously excludes Democrat filth.
 
That is pretty damn stupid to blame a Senator for the actions taken by the House. But that is what we have come to expect from members of the indoctrinated and uneducated Democratic Party. The real criminals here were the Democrats in the House, not Senator McCarthy. Calling the period "McCarthyism" is just another leftist lie, as usual.
 
I blame both the HUAC and Senator Joe. What part of that did you miss? And “McCarthyism” came into use -and is used by the right as well in some contexts, to describe the making of irresponsible political accusations to besmirch someone’s name, a la what Joe did with Welch’s assistant during the Army-McCarthy hearings.
 

I don't think COVID existed on Day 1 of Trump's reign.

3. It would be akin to martial law.

1. It is still a pandemic and responsible for hundreds of thousands dead (and millions world wide). How many do you need to be clear.
2. Absolutely it would.
3. You could see it that way - but needs must.

1. 8X have died for other reasons. If you need it to fit your narrative, have at it. Many of us don't see it that way.
2. Learn what due process means. Marital law suspends all requirements that such conditions be met.
3. Yes, just like you see it as a pandemic.
 

1. Anti vaxers die all the time from COVID. So ignore the pandemic at your peril
2. You don't need martial law to declare a state of emergency
3. It is a pandemic and no, we don't need to respond with martial law.
