Dear Canada and Europe, please save us from the Republicans.
Fuck that. I wanna know where all my sharpshooter vets are at. I'm a Navy Nuke. I don't have the skills to pull it off, but I'll give it the old college try if he comes to my neck of the woods. He is a clear and present domestic threat to The Constitution.
It's not just him. It's the infrastructure supporting the Nazi regime.
Do it yourself. Your people voted for it. Wether they voted for him or didnt vote. This is on your people.
Worst regards a german
We saved you from the Third Reich. This would be repayment?
Oooh there we go again the only thing you americans have, sweeping in in the last 2 years while making profit off of the war all the years before, and even being the reason for the nazis with willsons "be democratic somehow or we wont make peace", the great depression, enormouse amout of debt basicly killing the young and very fragile democracy before it began and so much more
You didnt do that alone. You came at the end. The resistance in germany, france, britain and all other occupied terretories, gave more.
The "debt" germany paid off years ago. Afghanistan, the numerouse desert wars, money we spend on the USA and we had our country destroyed thanks to the nazis.
Ww2 is all you americans know hm? Shouldnt have voted him in, he made it way clearer what his goals were than Adolf ever did
Remember when he wouldn't put his hand in the Bible when he took his oath of office?
This isn’t facebook, no one cares if he follows esoteric religious traditions.
The problem is that he won’t follow legal requirements that protect us normal people.
Yeah but it's funny that his base of evangelical Christians doesn't give a shit.
Unsurprising because from what I've seen they don't give a shit about the actual teachings of Christ.
You mean the brown Palestinian Jewish socialist? Yeah they would be hanging him if he came back.
Well he's the president, so he should really get clear on that. Immediately.
He is clear on it, he just doesn't want to admit it
Someone should make sure he at least knows what those words mean first.
This comment, all by itself, is an impeachable offense. Sigh.
He swore an oath to the very thing he doesn't give a shit about.
The constitutional crisis happened on swearing in day.
He swore an oath to it, TWICE!
The person being sworn in as President by the Chief Justice that day was ineligible for office according to the 14th Amendment section 3. And he could only do that because Congress neglected its Constitutional duty to enforce that provision.
That is all three branches of the government colluding to break the Constitution to put an ineligible man into the highest office.
Can you imagine if Obama said this? Did literally any of these things?
Or Biden. Or Harris.
Many things are impeachable offenses; but nothing is convictable.

We treat him better than any criminal and he still cries about being treated unfairly... anyone else in America would be behind bars right now.
We even have a real life example of this with all of the January 6th convictions resulting in jail time whereas his Highness was protected by a fascist judge who stalled the court proceedings at every opportunity.
Judge Aileen Cannon needs to be removed from her position, never be allowed to hold any judicial or public office position, and charged with obstruction of justice.
Absolutely, and it also didn't help that Merrick Garland (who, let me remind you, was only nominated for SCOTUS in the first place because Obama thought he was so conservative that not even McConnell could object to him) slow-walked the case for two years to begin with.

Someone fucking murder Trump already.
If only, if only
-The Woodpecker sighs.
Trump is just the highly visible part of a whole cancerous growth. All of the right wing, with its "outgroups to bind and in-groups to protect" worldview, needs to go.
I'm a foreigner, but the gun to attempt ratio surely doesn't add up statistically, surely? Those are rookie numbers, y'all gotta' pump those up!
There's a bit of the bystander effect, and the fact that he's in office now, and not just protected by secret service. Bush Jr. Saw the White House get fortified into a military facility. It has fucking anti-aircraft defenses. Obama saw the motorcade get overhauled into a series of what amount to tanks. Supposedly the glass and armor can withstand at least one RPG hit( the type with the shaped charged that cuts through steel) .
Whatever defenses Trump didn't know he had in 2016, he knows about now and then some. A straight up assassination isn't feasible - even if you could get ahold of his actual schedule, the type of equipment you'd need to reach him is way out of the hands of your normal citizen.
And then, even if you could get your hands on that equipment - you have to be able to use it. That drastically narrows the number of people who can pull it off to pretty much exclusively former military. And most of that kind of stuff isn't "lone Wolf" stuff so now it's further reduced.
Further anyone who goes around and admits they have the Intel, the training, the equipment, and the plan to do it in any capacity online will probably be outed before they can pull it off.
The only way the Regime goes down is by popular resistance. The only way we get to popular resistance is through protesting in person and seeing the numbers and communicating without leaving traces.
It's happening, but it's slow because the US is so unfathomably spread out. It takes time to move people places where we are used to instant communication. The Regime knows this. That's why they send military convoys to arrest a guy posting flyers identifying HSI personnel. They can only delay at this point, but they're either too stupid to realize that every thing they try now adds fuel to the fire, or they intend for it to all fall apart anyway.

Just wait till it affects him personally and he will.
It already did and he got off scot-free because of it.
In classic Conservative fashion he benefited from due process when he needed it and now he wants to remove it so others can't benefit from it.
George Washington saw this coming
"[…] cunning, ambitious, and unprincipled men will be enabled to subvert the power of the people and to usurp for themselves the reins of government, destroying afterwards the very engines which have lifted them to unjust dominion."

Yes, my immediate thought: he will when he's tried for treason. Not that that will help him, if he and his Business Plot 2.0 co-conspirators are ever tried. So will W, Cheneys, Rices, and if we're lucky, hrc.
Asked in the interview whether U.S. citizens and noncitizens alike deserve due process as laid out in the Fifth Amendment of the Constitution, Trump was noncommittal.
“I don’t know. I’m not, I’m not a lawyer. I don’t know,” Trump said when pressed by Welker.
Do you need to be a lawyer to be aware of the Bill of Rights? He's been President for more than 4 total years, head of the executive branch charged with executing the law for the entire country, has a whole staff of lawyers advising him, and has, himself, pled the 5th (!) and he's still not even familiar with the 5th amendment?
And he's sworn to uphold the Constitution (though a serial liar like him is about as trustworthy as a fox watching the chicken house)

If any other president ... Democrat or Republican ... had come out and said the things Turnip has said over the years, they would have lost their political careers by now
The problem isn't this orange idiot, the problem is the mass of people, politicians, funders, enablers and wealthy backers who want this moron in power. Turnip is a powerless fool .... it's the people who keep him power that are the problem

If that's not one of the first questions Monday morning from the White House Press pool they should all be fired. What other Oaths does he not know if needs to uphold? What other parts of the Constitution which he took an oath to defend and uphold does he not believe in?

Fucking with them is a spectacularly bad idea, just ask the British.
So the social contract is null and void.
And force is the only thing backing up power now with only resistance stopping it.
It would be hilarious if instead of asking this, the reporter asked him to define "due process"
"Of course I know what due process is. A lot of my friends are due process experts, and they're always telling me 'Donald, you do so much process. Nobody does process as brilliantly as you.'"
This is coming from the same administration that thought transgenic mice were transgender mice. I wouldn't be surprised at all if he actually comes out with something like this.
I noticed recently that the annotated constitution website suggests visitors to search "due process" in the search bar.
I don't support constitutional due process for him either
Presidents should do something, like some form of oath, to uphold this kind of things. And pass a test to ensure they understand all the complicated words.
So if he doesn’t support it does that mean you cant violate the constitution if he’s removed by any means?
