    I can’t get over just how short sighted MAGA is… They give the president this power like it will never be used against them by the next Democrat president.

      It won’t, democrats are giant pussies. They gave Biden a blank check from the supreme court to do official acts and he barely even got Trump prosecuted let alone actually punished.

      You think that after the changes made to the voting systems, the SAVE voting act, the firing of people at CISA responsible for election safety and security, and the migration of the voting devices to Starlink (even with orage mussilini and muskrat falling out) that there’s ever going to be a Democratic president again? I wish I had your optimism. That’s if a state of emergency/war isn’t called that halts all elections, which is far more likely to be what happens.

      Plus, the Democrats will just play good and “not stoop to the opposition’s level”, letting them just get creamed and steamrolled again in the following election, even if they do somehow manage to win. The Democrats had a chance to fight facism and they welcomed it with open arms. Without turning over nearly the entirety of the party, why does anyone think anything is ever going to change?

      The supreme court gave total immunity to the president while Biden was president. He didn’t use it a single time.

      If democrats ever had a candidate willing to whip his balls out and do something aggressively for a change.

      You think the democrats would actually do that? They’d make a big deal about how they won’t do that, because they are cowards. The only spine they ever grow is when their corporate owners tell them to. Other than that, they care about nothing but maintaining the status quo.

      Funny thing is. Republicans allow their red-ass state legislatures to gerrymander their districts, while democrats act so high and nobel implementing their “non-partisan” commissions to “draw fair districts”.

      The house is forever skewed in favor of the right wing unless democrats play dirty and also gerrymander the shit out of those seats.

        They tried in New York the last time the maps were redrawn. If Dems really wanted to gerrymander New York, they could likely win every single district.

        The courts shot that one down, and now New York is just heavily favored to Dems. The House would be majority Dems right now if not for that alone.
