The Former Presidency of Donald J. Trump, Volume XI: The Crypt Keeper Years

I think we need 2 consecutive terms of a GOP trifecta.

Same shit Alex Jones says every time he gets sued. These people are openly outting themselves as grifters in court, then running back to their cult followers and saying “The police MADE me say those things about grifting as much money as I can from you gullible fucks. It was all a lie and everything I’m saying right now is 100% the truth. By the way, donate to my defense fund, buy my boner pills, and dont forget to take your Alex Jones branded colloidal silver so you end up looking like a fucking smurf you gullible fucking morons.”

That’s the problem. A lot of the shit you would have to do could be quite unethical, so when you have one team playing who actually gives a shit about ethics, and one team with no scruples at all, you end up with a game where one side of the field is filled with people rolling around with their achelies slashed, and one side of the field having a bunch of able bodied people with knives in their teeth.

Fucking lawyers

Yeah, I do see that tension. People hate on Dems for trying to uphold norms but it seems obvious there is some value to that. The problem is that game theoretically, you’re going to get crushed if only one side cares.

And that said, I don’t think they would need to act unethically to exert power. There is plenty that they could do that would be an exertion of political power while remaining ethical. Passing HR1 and adding DC/PR/USVI/Guam/etc. would not be unethical.

I guess what I (and I assume most of us here) want to see is a party that uses all the tools available to them while still upholding the law. So I’m fine with a D Senate giving the R President the Garland treatment on a SCOTUS nominee, but I’m not fine with a D Senate refusing to recognize a R election winner. Doesn’t seem like too much to ask, and maybe we’re heading in that direction.

Just absolute supervillains running this country. DeVos might be the second worst ghoul after Steven Miller.

I wonder if Trump actually prevented this from happening the last time. He was confusing enough and independent enough that congress republicans could not execute the kill shot.

Elsewhere in the same filing: it cannot reasonably be argued that Powell does not believe her election lies.
