    I wish he’d do just ONE stunt that is only possible because SCOTUS gave presidents 100% immunity on “official acts”

      He can after the election and there is nothing anyone can do about it. Good idea SCOTUS, give all lame duck presidents to do whatever the fuck they want …

      He has a sworn duty to defend the Constitution from all threats domestic, right?

      Prepare your away team. No, we’re just going down the street.

    In an election that is bound to be contested in the courts (“in the courts” here being an absolute best-case aspirational umbrella statement covering any form that dispute will likely take, including violence in the streets) for some time, it’s actually really not the worst thing at all for someone being parked in the Whitehouse who is not directly involved in said dispute.

      You remember reading how Biden was being at risk of not being on the ticket in some state because the Dems hadn’t filed paperwork in time?

      I fear that there are laws, somewhere, which will prevent Harris from being on the ballot, in that jurisdiction…


      Humans only react correctly when it’s too-late, by default.

      ClimatePunctuation’s only 1 example of an ocean of them, throughout history…

      While Harris is a Godsend, compared with all the alternatives, … I don’t know that all of the required chain-of-leverages is in-place to pull this off, & save the US of A’s life…

        I’ve also heard that deep state vampires are ordering children off of furniture websites so they can drink young blood.

        Just because some fascist says something doesn’t mean it has a basis in reality. Their whole play is to spew such a tremendous amount of bullshit that it becomes hard to know what is true or not at a glance.

    He should totally invite Barack & Bill over to the Rose Garden and beat down the White House fax machine, while W wanders around looking for his stapler.

    I’d love to see him go Dark Brandon and play attack dog, not holding back since he’s not the target anymore
