        the millions who do the no king “protests” despite proper protesting examples in mexico a few years ago proved how much it’s the former – that’s why americans had to decide between pro-genocide candidates and why the mexicans got president shienbaum instead.

          You sure you replied to the right comment? I didn’t really say anything about no kings, protests in general, or the last election.

            i was referring to the delusional optimism that americans like to engage in via ineffective behavior like ag blanch has likely already initiated.

            … insanely optimistic/delusional? Or maybe just on really good drugs?

    It won’t be judges or institutions that save the election if he tries this shit, it’ll be people in the streets forcing him to back down.

        What about the mass movement that ousted homeland security secretary Kristi Noam, Border Patrol commander Gregory Bovino, U.S. Border Patrol Chief Mike Banks, and acting head of Immigration and Customs Enforcement Todd Lyons?

        Yankees aren’t entirely passive. They’re often pretty pathetic, but sometimes an inciting incident can get them into the streets.

        And 60% disapproval. He’s underwater and it’s getting worse.

        A lot of those 40% are squishes too, their support is conditional on the economy holding up. We’ll see.
