(And if you think the electoral college is bad, just wait until you see how much power red states with low population have in a constitutional convention.)

I agree, although repealing the 2nd amendment and cramming "no really, we mean it" where bribery is mentioned would come next before judicial appointments IMO.

That's going to require a constitutional amendment, so... good luck with that?

He offered Ivanka some bacon and she explained for the 200th time that she's Jewish now and doesn't eat pork and now he thinks everyone stopped eating bacon.

Jewish Communist International Bankers is literally straight out of Mein Kampf. If you can convince people that bankers want the proletariat to seize the means of production, they'll believe anything.

I miss when the right was mad about activist judges and was pretty sure Marbury was wrongly decided.

It's not made up, it's just that you've never heard of the institution that granted it because it's in a parallel universe. Common mistake.

It's also profitable, if you actually practice DEI instead of saying you do and hiring a powerless head of DEI. If you look at places whining that they tried DEI and it didn't work, you won't find any equity or inclusion, and very little diversity.

To be clear, I don't think any Jew who supports the fascists who say the right things in public is being reasonable. This is definitely leopards eating faces territory if they get into power.

They did kick the vocally pro-Nazi father of their candidate out of the party. They're a far right party and for sure still attract antisemites, but Jews aren't officially on their list of who they hate. Like much of the US right, they're pro-Israel (for racist reasons).

Now, now. Probably less than a quarter of the vocal "leftists" are actual Russian plants; surely some of them are American fascists pretending to be leftists or actual leftist useful idiots. Good luck guessing which are which, though.

I switched parties to vote in the 1996 primary (which in itself was pointless; the PA primary is always so late that there's one candidate still running), and was on the Christian Coalition's mailing list for years. So proud to get their scorecard ranking my Rep. at 0%, though.

Book pitch: fascism failing because Trump has unlimited power, but can't delegate it to agencies and he's too busy golfing and watching TV to do anything himself.

Yeah, but 6 > 1 so if any one person didn't vote the result would have been the same, and therefore *handwaving* if everyone didn't vote the result would be the same. That's just, uh, math?

It's probably fair to say that in a democracy it's up to the people to choose a President who isn't a total asshat who would abuse the office, and arguably we were pretty good at that for most of our history. But sometimes the Demos is a bunch of morons.

The reading that the Constitution only intends to make them subject to prosecution after being convicted in the Senate might make sense, and if the Court had ruled that way instead of... *gestures at horrible ruling*, they might have a shred of credibility left.

In Federalist 76 Hamilton made his key misjudgements, writing that a President wouldn't make bad judicial appointments because he'd be able to feel something called "shame".

The speech and debate clause already gives them immunity for pretty much anything they do that's actually an "official act".

What's harder, being President for 6 more months or 4 years after that? In any case, the people who want him to step aside as candidate are mostly worried he will lose, not that he's incapable of being the President.

Those 2 decisions coming days apart is really just making a mockery of the judiciary. The executive branch can't be trusted to interpret statutes correctly but also no one can question the President's official actions? FFS if the Executive is an infallible mangod let him regulate corporations.

It doesn't matter what Trump's lawyer or the CJ say. The Senate makes the final decision, and they'll never have the votes to convict anyway. He doesn't need immunity, he just needs the GOP Senators to be who they are.

You've got to wonder if any of Trump's advisors are pissed because you're not supposed to say this stuff out loud until after the election or they're all on board with masks-off anyway.

They're even holding the convention in Chicago again. They can reenact all of the tear gassing of protesters. Sadly we're down to 1 octogenarian member of the Chicago 7.

And to be fair he's flip-flopped on Trump so many times it's possible whoever booked him couldn't keep track of whether he's currently pro-fascism.

FFS I just saw a "news" story about how a reporter asked Nancy Pelosi about calls for Biden to step aside, acting like it's surprising that she doesn't think an 80-something should consider retiring from politics.
