    They could literally impeach him tomorrow. This is not a one man show. It is a choice. They’re choosing to make themselves richer and make you poorer, to make themselves more powerful and to make you more vulnerable. Not just Trump.

    I know this is “no stupid questions”, but for the love of God, could you try to at least type it coherently? It reads like you were having a stroke while typing that or trying to mimic Kevin’s “why use many word when few do good?” Have some self respect, sheesh. I feel like there’s no point in explaining anything to you because you wouldn’t get it anyways.

    There are no divine guard rails and Trump is merely a symptom of a diseased country…diseased west internationally frankly. Looks like nothing will be done until maybe a critical mass of you have nothing to lose. Too comfortable and selfish for now, waiting for invisible heroes who will never arrive to do the hard stuff for you. Or not. Could end up like Russia for centuries.

    Laws written are only applied to the out group, not the in group under nazi regime. The in group shrinks over time.

    I think Canada following you idiots into hell, just on a delayed timer. We have the same situation where we’re fucked the minute we elect our own nazi party. Very nearly did last election. Nobody should trust us long term. Handing ourselves to USA on a silver platter is in the cards IMO.

    Realistically only Congress or the Supreme Court can stop him and no they aren’t going to. Beyond that, as others have said it is just standing in the street and yelling. But that won’t stop him.

    The only significant opposition has been in a few courts. Everything else is mostly vocal and easily ignored. So, yeah, we are.

    The fun thing about checks and balances is that it relies on the other branches to be actually interested in the continuation of governance.

    If I can give an overly pedantic answer, it’s not him. I certainly never give such a vile human being a pass but …… his advisors have their own agendas. At least some of the evilness is their agenda and Trump is either the sock puppet, was bribed, or just doesn’t care about anyone besides himself.
