Last I checked, Trump had no position in the government. Do we need another explicit law on the books to prevent non-representative collusion in the Senate? 🤦

    As a person with an equal amount of power as Trump at present, I’m reinstating them.

      Have you ever been president?!

      Obviously executive authority continues after you leave office. But only if you are Republican. Obama has no executive authority anymore. Or Clinton.

      Especially Clinton.

      That may provide temporary relief, but the only way the US can come back from what he has done is for him to see the inside of a jail cell. That seems to be a remote possibility despite his conviction. Him simply dying will only be a temporary reprieve. Ultimately everybody dies. That’s not justice.

      Trump is the luckiest man on the planet. He will die comfortably in his sleep. Probably sitting at the resolute desk.

        What about that little one they wheeled out for him and put him in a home instead?

        “Yes, yes Mr. President”.

    Oh by the way there’s no justice and we’re going to make your women carry non-viable fetuses which may in fact kill them. Yeah. Not sorry. Also give us your money, poors. Here’s some commandments you have to memorize for your driving test.
