      That’s NOT true! You can COUNT ON ME, a REPUBLICAN, to ALWAYS Defend the Constitution!* *After an Elementary School Shooting!

      You need a couple of amendments to that constitution then.

        Here’s the thing, you don’t need to amend the constitution if you don’t have anyone enforcing it.

          Isn’t that the point of the 2nd amendment? (Non-US person here, sorry). To bear arms (and arm bears 😆) against a tyrannical government? What will be the tipping point from egotistical piss-fairyfloss-haired manchild to certified tyrant?

            Before that tipping point arrives (surely even The Fanta Menace wouldn’t go so far as actually starting a military civil war), mass protests need to happen. Can anyone explain to me why the Democrat party aren’t organising these? Or are there really THAT many people who think Donnie D-Cups is doing a good job for the US.

              The Dems are busy matching shirts and 10 dems voted to sanction Al Green (the only vocal protester during trump’s speech). The Democratic Party is still a majority corporate party. My hope is we get some ex fed employees with some fight to primary some of these dems.

                It’s also winter and pretty much every facet of our society is designed to prevent it from occuring.

                Mass Protests happened during Covid because everyone was at home. You can be sure they won’t make that mistake again, no matter the cost.

        how? the problem is with the nutters controlling all the levers. an amendment would not be enough. You would at a minimum need another area of power and how do you keep that from being controled by nutters.
