Silence is consent. They allow and they enable. The R cowards supporting Trumpepstein stoop lower and lower every day. They love their selfish pride and fear the Donvict's cult more than they love the Constitution or their humanity, or what little is left of their humanity.

Only twenty? Fucking cowards.
EDIT: Looks like it's up to ~30 now? I do see that my rep, Melanie Stansbury is standing tall. Very proud of her.
Sign here to impeach this orange raping loser:
Might want to modify the url. Seems that is linked to your account and I could see your name.
lol. Thanks. I’ll change it. It’s not my name. I was forwarded it by someone else whose name isn’t Darren.
If you get enough signatures, Trump MIGHT use it for toilet paper.
We need to dismantle the Supreme Court. They are enabling him. TERM LIMITS.
Trump MIGHT use it for toilet paper
He doesn't use toilet paper. That's what Steven Miller's tongue is for.
Term limits in SCOTUS would increase the current president's power to exert influence in the court. That sounds great, until we realize that about half the time, the president is a complete asshole who shouldn't be in charge of a McDonald's franchise, let alone the country.
To reduce a president's undue influence on the court, we need to strictly limit the number of justices they can add per term. If three justices reach their term limits, and two others die or retire, the president is flipping five justices. That's a terrible idea.
What we could do is eliminate the fixed size of the court. Eliminate the requirement that the court must consist of 9 people. Instead, the president appoints two justices per term, shortly after their first and third years in office. The court's size will likely fluctuate between 10 and 15 justices.
To further remove political influence, we could introduce a means of replenishing the court without political grandstanding. Should the court membership fall below 5 members due to some kind of disaster or tragedy, (or should the president fail to appoint or the Senate confirm a presidential appointment, or should too many members of the current court have a conflict of interest and not be eligible to hear a case) appellate court justices are elevated to the supreme court in order of seniority.
The u.s. Congress could meet, and deal with this fuck. End this aggression against Iran.
Republicans are bad people who value personal power and in-group belonging more than anything else like morals or consistency. They are bad people. That's how bad people make decisions.
Hope nobody expected any different. The repugs are as deeply entrenched in the fascism as trump is. Nothing short of a complete wipe will change that
If we don’t deal with them harshly at the first chance it’s feasibly possible it will come roaring back one final, unbeatable time.
I don’t like that it’s the only option. But it is.
Ok. unpopular opinion time but this is kinda dumb as congress has a specific process for removing a president which was put in specifically for a president behaving like trump. impeachment. the 25th relies on the rest of the presidents cabinet having balls but trump requires they leave them at the door when they enter his administration.
If you recall, he has been impeached twice already and yet...here we still are.
yeah and that is because of congressmen who are derelict in their duty. other congressmen should keep on doing their duty and bring up impeachment charges for everything he has done. An individual violating the constitution can't be helped and even a department is something that happens but when the administration does not punish and remdiate the violations as part of their oversight then it becomes an administrative policy to violate the constitution and that means the president himself is now responsible for violating the constitution. This outside of actual instructions for vioating the constitution and disengenously arguing that they are not when they clearly are. Many replublicans are wealthy and educated and benefit greatly from a stable rule of law society. I am hoping that it is trickling in on them that not only trump must go but republicans do. That conservates need to rebuild and find some actual priniciples if they ever hope to have a rich enough society to skim off of.
reminder that Vance becomes president in that case
If it happens soon, he can only run for one more term. Knowing how slimy the GOP is though, they will string this along to give him 1y 364d of this term, so he can run twice more. 10 years is the maximum our current system allows a president to serve.
why only one more? how does ot work?
Basically the constitution was amended back in the 1940s to limit the number of terms a president can have. One of the weirder things put in is that if a president dies or is impeached after they are halfway through their term their VP can run through the rest of the term and run for two more afterwards, if the president dies or is impeached before they are halfway through their term it counts as a full term for the VP.
