They can continue inventing new policies and group-think justifications from one day to the next. Oh, you say Action B is also unconstitutional, as well? See you in court, and we'll keep doing it in the meantime. (POST 14 of 15) ...

He doesn't need to win court cases, he just needs to keep arguing, and keep circumventing court decisions. If Action A was unconstitutional (after a year or so of being in effect), then okay we won't do Action A, we'll do Action B instead. (POST 13 of 14) ...

You can say that Trump making himself a dictator is unconstitutional, and courts and the rule of law will prevent Trump from becoming a fascist dictator. But, Trump isn't interested in winning any arguments in court. (POST 12 of 15) ...

The remaining hope is that the legal process is proceeding; the unconstitutional presidential actions are being challenged in court. I'm worried that this also might be circumvented, though. (POST 11 of 15) ...

A broken, terrorized federal government is less likely to get in the way of authoritarian decrees. And, if Republican lawmakers had the backbone to maintain Congress's role as a check on presidential authority, they would have said something by now. (POST 10 of 15) ...

Anyone who writes a weekly email detailing what they've done for Musk this week is a loyal employee who knows who is in charge, or at least they've been reminded who is in charge. (POST 9 of 15) ...

And Musk doesn't care about finding corruption or weekly emails about what employees did; his whole goal with his DOGE Gestapo is to make sure that nothing functions anymore, to make sure the people who remain in government employment are reminded daily that they need to live in fear. (8 of 15) ...

He doesn't care about the culture wars that he drones on about (he enjoys being cruel, but that's a means to an end). It's a red herring to distract from all the actions that have consolidated his power. (POST 7 of 15) ...

I know, a president is not supposed to have that authority - not supposed to. Think of all the ridiculous excuses to stop liberal cities from voting, or throw out their votes, or to drum up fictional criminal investigations, to crush the independence of liberal states. (POST 5 of 15) ...

Trump can claim the enemies are influencing elections, refuse to accept election results, or declare martial law and force states to delay elections, or force election officials at state and local levels to resign and then he can find ways to make sure they're replaced with cronies. (POST 4 of 15)

Even if Republican lawmakers are only in it to save their own skin, you'd think that they would be pushing back at this point, but they aren't. Because they know that there is a plan in place to never again hold or abide by fair elections. (POST 3 of 15) ...

Why do all the Republican lawmakers stand by while Trump and Musk knowingly tank the US economy and make universally unwanted, disliked, and harmful changes? They certainly know that voters will mount a huge backlash. (POST 2 of 15) ...

The fact that they don't care they're wrecking the economy means one thing: they don't plan on having midterm elections.

The Republican administration's goal in firing military officers is to consolidate power for authoritarian rule; the war on diversity is a red herring.
