      The republicans can fire trump at any second they want.

      But why would they? They have power. Is there supposed to be some sort of conclusion we can draw from this statement?

      It’s also true that Exxon could cease all oil drilling tomorrow. It’s also true that all billionaires could give away their entire fortunes tomorrow. But they won’t, because they have power.

      Sure, at any given time it is true that your evil adversaries could just give up and magically change course, but is there really anything groundbreaking about underscoring that?

      We should be leaning on the purported “opposition” party to actually fix things instead of waiting for evil pedophiles to magically change course.

      There’s a huge group of people on this site that wants to make sure people don’t vote democrat in the midterms so republicans can win and continue with their plans.

        Please go back to the site where Democrats are hailed as heroes you think they are.

        This is the fediverse not your backyard circlejerk where we had to be scared of offending yankistani status quo anymore.

        Fuck Republicans, Fuck Democrats, FUCK THE USA and anyone who enable violence to minorities, that includes China, Russian, Israel, Iran and other authoritarian regimes.

        You had decades and decades to fix your binary election system but anyone who thinks otherwise are the problem? How bloody convenient, huh? Just throw over some blame from days of coldwar and feel smug.

        Yeah fuck that noise.

        2024: Now is not the time. If you want to build third party support, then you’ll need to do it between presidential elections.

        2026: lol you believed that? Wait for a more convenient season.

            Look, last I checked the roll of the executive branch in the rule of law was to enforce the laws passed by congress and upheld by the judicial system. It’s pretty clear that the entire process of bringing Trump and his ilk to trial was slow walked by the DOJ under Merrick Garland, appointed by Biden. That’s not judge, jury, or executioner, it’s their roll as the DOJ.

              Jack Smith was pretty far into his investigation when the American people collectively decided they didn’t care and voted Trump back into office.

              Unfortunately real life isn’t like CSI and most investigations take years much less ones that involve the president without any clear legal precedent and a hostile SCOTUS.
