      Conservatism is entirely about the laws applying differently to different people. The king is special. The nobles are a little less special. The peasants are trash. The slaves are worse. That’s the conservative world. Hierarchy. So of course they don’t want to apply rules to their chief.

      They are worse than children.

      How do you expect that to happen when the fascists own and operate all three branches of government and are hands on with DoJ?

      Americans have no choice in the matter, if we’re talking about legal channels.

        For real. Like yeah, lemme just waltz my ass on over there and issue a citizens arrest. That will go over splendidly.

          All the idiots who say this shit think they would be the one to kill Hitler if they were born in Nazi Germany. There’s a reason it took a foreign military invading to push him to do it himself.

          I’ve even heard dipshits say “Well America had a Civil War in the past” as if that war was declared by the people and not their governments and fought by their militaries.

      there’s a major error in that the president, according to legal experts, can’t be arrested by anyone but congress and the house, which makes no sense. he should simply be president from a poison at this point.
