We need to treat this like the threat that it is NOW. If we wait; it will only get worse!
Yes, everyone really does. Quick easy thing to do is contact your local representative, which you can do in minutes from your sofa.
Download the app “5 calls.” It’s free. It will give you your representatives and senators phone numbers, and a script. You can set daily, weekly or monthly reminders.
It literally takes a bit less than 10 minutes to call them about 3 issues. More calls = more fear of being primaried.
I know this one! What’s the last sentence of 12th amendment?
What has that to do with anything? Trump and his backers has long since shown that any law or even constitution is worth no more than the paper it was written on.
You misunderstand how most dictatorships work. You either crown someone absolute king - and there’s less than a handful of them - or you pretend to work within a constitutional framework which is the most popular form of dictatorship by far and the only realistic option in the US, at least for now. The latter introduces limits to what a dictator can do without breaking the illusion that everything is working as it should.
I can’t overstate how much effort the garden variety dictatorship puts into making everything seem “business as usual”.
If Trump goes there he might as well try to formally replace the entire constitution.
Non-US person here, had to look it up:
But no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President of the United States.
Which means the theory of running as VP to have the President resign on Day 1 will be rendered moot.
Duh. Make him speaker of the house (an unelected position), then have the vice president & president resign. Do you even know how to fascist?
Just follow Putin-Medvedev playbook and all will be good /s
Motherfucker hasn’t even finished 6 months of his second, why the fuck is he talking about a third for? We aren’t going survive other 4 years of this asshole.
