robosmith Posted June 30, 2024 Report Posted June 30, 2024 The Lazy Authoritarianism of Donald Trump Quote Trump, in his first term, was not equipped to do the work required of him. By no means is Trump the first president or even the first Republican president to abuse the power of the office in an effort to overcome the constitutional limits of the office. We can see something similar with Richard Nixon and Watergate as well as Ronald Reagan and Iran-contra, when the White House circumvented a congressional prohibition on foreign aid to rebel groups in Nicaragua. But Trump makes no distinction between himself and the office of the presidency. He is the kind of man who might say, “L’état, c’est moi” if he knew of anything other than his own desires. He has the heart of an absolutist. For Trump to bend to the presidency, he would have to embark on the impossible task of denying himself the satisfaction of imposing his will on others. And so he has tried to break the presidency instead, to transform a constitutional office defined by its limits into an instrument of his personal authority. A second term would mean even more of the chaos, corruption, disorder and incompetence that defined his first four years in office. Trump and his more ideologically driven allies and advisers would smash through the constitutional system in a reckless drive to satisfy their dreams, desires and delusions. Why is it that the MAGA CULT wants a FASCIST POTUS who deprives large classes of people of their rights? Quote

It's the only way to beat the ultra-facist democrats. Sometimes ya gotta fight fire with fire. They'll be weaponizing the courts against the dems in retribution next so stick around, i'm sure it'll be quite the show. 1 Quote There are two types of people in this world: Those who can extrapolate from incomplete data
