What is the fucking point of living if everything you believed in can be taken from you by some old white fucks

    Again, Biden can’t just unilaterally declare things. He would need Congress, States, and the Courts to go along with any legal maneuvering, and he doesn’t have nearly enough devoted supporters to declare anybody anything.

    But he can have people killed. Dead people can’t argue.

      At the moment and (traditionally), yes he can that’s literally what we’re in court about. If laws don’t apply to the president he can do what he wants. Chest of Congress, replace governor’s with lackies, remove uncooperative justices, it’s pretty easy to get away with shit when you’re literally untouchable.

      I’m the case of citizenship the government has always had the power to revoke but just for limited things like running for foreign office. So it’s simple just say they’re running for foreign office, who’s gunna argue with the god king with all the nukes.

        You’re missing the point.

        If laws don’t apply, then the President can do whatever he can convince his followers to go along with. Trump might have his party by the short hairs, but Biden is not that influential among Democrats. Biden could declare whatever he wants, but without cooperation from government agencies, states, party leadership, and judges, it would be ineffective.

        How many judges do you think would do for Biden what Aileen Cannon is doing for Trump? How many SCOTUS justices would reverse theory own rulings to serve Biden’s interests? How many governors would abandon all reason and justice to fall in line behind dear leader?

        Whether it’s corruption, kompromat, or abject stupidity, conservatives cluster around the party identity and will parrot whatever bullshit they are fed. Nobody is storming the Capitol building for Joe Biden.

          He doesn’t need all the support just key support which you get by threatening murder. That’s literally why it was brought up.

            To remove a justice, or a candidate, or take away someone’s citizenship, you’d need more support than Biden’s got. To murder someone, you just need to be a sociopath.

                I’d argue that we’re saying the same thing. I’d assume anyone willing to murder someone for political reasons is a sociopath.
