He tried to get Pence killed four years ago. We've known for at least that long that this is who Trump is. Republicans don't care.

Donald: we need a Night of the Long Knives.

SCOTUS: let us open the kitchen drawer for you.

The guy that avoided drafting, is Putin's bitch and said vetetans who died in the war were loosers.

The trump/Hitler comparison is becoming less ridiculous

republican allegiance is to the bible, not the constitution. they say a lot of things about the constitution, but in the end, they just want christo-fascism. some of them are true believers in the make believe, others just use to justify their own cruelty.

either way, their motives don't matter. it's all about what we're going to do about it.

When your neighbor waves a loaded gun in your face, do you whine about how no neighbors should be behaving like that? Is that effective? That's basically begging for morality.

Stop preaching morality to your foes. The servatives are too far gone. The billionaires are too far gone.

No more hopium and copium.

We need to wake up to what IS, as opposed to what we wish it were.

If morality could solve any socioeconomic imbalance, billionaires would ban and outlaw morality.

The fact that morality is always promoted and no one went to prison or was assassinated for promoting morality means one of two things: either a) morality doesn't exist and can't work even in principle, and instead we have a bullshit narrative to make people more timid and more self-doubting to make from them more manageable subjects, or b) real actual morality does exist, and when taught WOULD threaten the billionaires and other exploiters, and thus WOULD effectively produce societies centered on broad wellbeing, but we were never exposed to it in religion or in any university level class.

If it's b) then such morality isn't based on begging and pleading with the unwilling and uninterested parties. And also if it's b) then preaching such morality would be viewed as a threat to today's trash status quo and a threat to the morbidly wealthy billionaires.

just a bunch of cowards really

Maybe if he woke up enough to realize what's going on around him?

Not doing it would be literally suicidal on Biden's part.

No can do, high crimes aren't against the law.

The more I think about trump saying that he could shoot someone in broad daylight in front of millions, and not lose a single supporter….. the more I think he was right.

Bone Spurs is 78 and grotesque.

He only has so much time, you dig?

It would be schadenfreude to see Donald execute McConnell, but I wouldn't be able to really enjoy it.

Doubtful that the military would actually do that. Trump while President was reportedly annoyed at basically being told 'no' that General Kelly said that:

The President’s loud complaint to [then-White House chief of staff] John Kelly one day was typical: “You [f------] generals, why can’t you be like the German generals?”

“Which generals?” Kelly asked.

“The German generals in World War II,” Trump responded.

“You do know that they tried to kill Hitler three times and almost pulled it off?” Kelly said.

But, of course, Trump did not know that. “No, no, no, they were totally loyal to him,” the President replied.

The President may be Commander-in-Chief but the oath is to the Constitution. Obeying the President and officers are also a part of the oath but with the caveat that it is according to the regulations and UCMJ. You not only don't have to but you're taught to explicitly not follow an illegal order in the US military.

Not that US military members have given illegal orders that were followed but it is a little different to basically order the military to essentially start enforcing essentially a government coup for a politician against the US' own citizens.

I really wish my wife had agreed to move to New Zealand back in 2016.

Of course. So will Pence.
