Yeah, as I said up there, he’d be fine with selling all that merchandise a second time. Not only wouldn’t he give refunds for the 47 stuff, he’d (as you indicated) likely be able to sell it at a premium.
Not if Biden expands the scope of the order.
Okay, while we’d be increasing the level of the Constitutional-Crisisometer, you’re correct that the equation would change immensely.
Well, if they prosecuted Biden at the same rate that they prosecuted Trump, he might not live to see a sentencing because he’d be very close to 90.
Fair.
“There, I took my shot, now ever so slowly come at me!”
The Melon Felon just announced his pick for Attorney General. I thought he couldn’t do much worse than Texas’ corrupt, criminal AG. Shows me - he picked Matt Gaetz.
There’s another sexist, rapist criminal Trump can put in charge of the Justice System.
Trump’s first time he claimed he would pick “the best people”. Now apparently he’s over that, and going for “the worst people”.
Another nail in the coffin for The Onion - America’s Finest News Source.
A semi-conservative lawyer I know told me just this morning that he thinks it’s a trap. Trump, he says, is working behind the scenes with former Speaker Kevin McCarthy, who hates Gaetz’s guts. Gaetz has resigned from the House before the ethics report was released, so he’s now out of office. Trump and McCarthy know the Senate will never approve his nomination as AG (especially if Trump says through back channels that he wants it killed).
Intriguing, but I’m not that conspiracy-minded.
Less conspiracy minded. He, rapey mcforehead, gave up his constitutional protections when he resigned. If there is sufficient evidence for state (ha-ha) or federal charges; it’s open season on him. As ISTR, his co-conspirator took a plea deal of 30 years. The problem then was this guy was so repulsive in thoughts and actions that using him as a witness would have any Gaetz lawyer putting this wretch on trial deflecting from Gaetz.
God dammit. I just realized I’m back to waking up every day thinking “what fresh hell awaits?”. And that really pisses me off.
Back during Trump’s first term some guy started a website called “What the fuck just happened today?” [Googles] And it’s still up and running!
You do realize that it’s deliberate. It’s directly from the “authoritarian handbook.” You exhaust people by doing and saying insanely-outrageous things every day, day after day after day. Nominate Matt Gaetz as AG one day; nominate conspiracy theorist (“the water is turning kids gay”) RFK Jr. to oversee all public health agencies, the next. Literally.
Pretty soon people start checking out. “I can’t even” becomes the fashionable position; ignoring the news becomes trendy.
Leaving the autocrat free rein to do exactly as he pleases.
Thanks to a certain recent SCOTUS decision, this expression is now:

Heh. Back in 2020, I believe the Republicans held their National Convention in Charlotte because its flag features a prominent crown. Thus flattering their would-be monarch. (And obviously six of the “Supreme” Court Justices agree.)
I wouldn’t read too much into that. The DNC held its convention in Charlotte in 2012.
I’m purely guessing here, but: Obama saw the flag and thought ‘that’s a nice graphic.’
Trump saw the flag and thought ‘many people, the best people, are saying that I SHOULD be King!’
I’m purely guessing here, but: the Democrats didn’t look at the flag.
Thee Republicans might have. Now that someone has pointed it out, though, Trump is likely thinking it.
Evidently Trump is planning on declaring a National Emergency to enable his Mass Deportation
Are they going to start at Mar-a-Lardo?
Maybe he already started and that’s why nobody sees Melania around.
Maybe she asked him to start with her.
