I'm Canadian but as you know, the world is getting splashed by the open blender the USA is right now... for all our sake, I am wishing hard you are right and I am wrong.
Not buying American, cancelling trips to NY, being extra Canadian
I hope the best for you and all of us but I fear if your revolution awaits for someone to organise it so that it's painless and requires no sacrifices, it'll simply never happen
Ok, sorry I only replied a single line yesterday (trying a new android keyb and I am too slow). I did not mean to dismiss your thoughtful replies with a one liner.
Now, you know about this more if you are indeed a lawyer but I do not buy the idea that Trump and co are trying to be careful to not to cross the line into illegality. I mean, they have publicly called for judges to be removed
If any regular folk had pulled 1/2 of what trump has done, we would have had those contempt charges coming like a bullet. I mean, they are claiming national security for not answering questions about the kidnapped Venezuelans yet they broadcasted the entire saga as a super bowl commercial online and on tv
Sure, I get if the "good side" were to be as cavalier with the law as trump is, the entire thing falls apart even faster. But I have no doubt in my mind the "rule of law" in the USA is over. For decades, the law applies to you in reverse proportion to your wealth, the richer you are the less the law applies. The bottom has now fallen off and SCOTUS basically declared trump a king while in office.
I am willing to bet my bottom dollar these judges "considering" contempt charges will ever drop them or, if they do, trump would ignore with no consequence.
I mean you have examples like this which seem to be pretty clear cut... when should we expect to see actual consequences?
Please please.... Let the judge order Trump to do something and let Trump ignore. The constitutional crisis it would create would have to be dealt with.
That's already happened a few times and nothing came out of it
no, of course. What I meant to say is the mentality that you can buy now cheap because the market is on a dip, assumes a recovery which, this time around, it not at all likely.
If you do not have much money, it would be best to save it in a less volatile medium than plummeting stock under the madness that is this MAGA presidency.
WHAT?! you do realize that during a depression (aka, if things don't recover in a while), people who never even dreamed of having enough money to invest would become absolutely destitute, right?
Any money thrown in investments that won't recover is literally wasted. Better under the mattress to eventually wallpaper your house
