All these analysts trying to figure out how this tyrant who will be in control of all the Federal government can’t do this or that because a piece of paper says so. SMH.
It’s not the piece of paper, it’s the amount of people who have to go along with something for it to happen. A lot of his and his zealous proposals are wildly unpopular.
Also Trump is a raging narcissist. If the focus ends up on project 2025 and makes him look bad, he will ditch whatever that item is. So I guess pick your battles and make noise.
Trump would be impeached if he tried. You think Raytheon and Boeing can’t buy enough congressmen to impeach him?
Are we still pretending that impeachment in the US is any kind of meaningful threat to a president?
If you understand it as a trial where a president who has done something wrong is held accountable according to the law, then no that’s idealist nonsense.
If you understand it as a mechanism that allows 50+ senators to replace the president with the VP if they want to, yes.
He’s been fucking impeached twice already.
How do you people have such short fucking memories?
Nothing sticks to this dirtbag. That’s how he got that stupid nickname.
Successfully removed from office, not the ceremonial bullshit the dems do for the aesthetic.
Republicans have at least 53 senators. He won’t be removed, just like the last two times.
Bruh dems voted for it. They did what they could with the votes they had at the time. REPUBLICANS stone walled it because it’s party over country for them. They probably hoped that almost getting lynched by an angry fucking mob the sitting president refused to call in the National Guard on would get at least enough to flip to convict, but nope, republicans will apparently literally die before they vote for country over party.
Who would impeach him? Raytheon and Boeing will get money via DoD as usual
Trump would be impeached
Let’s assume that happens. What would that do, exactly? Can you think of any precedent where something like that has happened before? What was the net effect?
Can you think of any precedent where something like that has happened before?
In the US? The closest you’d get is JFK, if you think Allen Dulles was behind the assassination, and not just the coverup.
Outside the US? Constitutional coups after a country goes against US interests happen so frequently that it’s not even noteworthy.
What would that do, exactly?
Replace Trump with JD Vance, who I’m sure will be more amenable to the interests of the capitalist class.
Really? The closest thing in the US -- at all -- is from the 60s? Why do you suppose that is?
About fucking time. What’s the point in having friends if you can’t drunkenly jump from their moving car in the middle of Death Valley during a heatwave? YOLO!
Edit: Apparently the ridiculous scenario and “YOLO” weren’t enough to indicate that this was sarcasm…
I’m drunk and jumping from their car!!! YOLO!!!
I hope I YOLO’d hard enough.
Would it not be economic suicide to do so?
People don’t seem to understand that Trump is the Russians’ inside job.
The call is coming from inside of the house. The policies are meant to be bad on purpose. The people that destroy the country will be on planes to Moscow when all is said and done.
Russia won. The oligarchs won. We lost. That’s all there is to it.
Oh, no, we’re out of NATO.
Or at the least we’ll have a CJCs that stops all NATO cooperation, so we’re in in name only.
Who am I kidding, either the CJCs or SecDef WILL be Michael Flynn.
