      Do you think either Trump or Netanyahu gives a single shit about what’s legal?

        look, he’s doing this in the context of his presidential duties, this makes it completely legal, duh, fucking serfs getting uppity. ~~SCOTUS

          SCOTUS truly would decide that actions during an election year are presidential duties, unless they are impeachable and an impeachment is successful, in which case they were private citizen stuff all along.

            no, impeachment doesn’t matter anymore, literally only the SCOTUS declared the president untouchable, as long as they agree

        I wish people would stop saying “but” and maybe just like call it in? Stage a protest? Demand that he be brought up for charges?

        Like if it’s a crime and he doesn’t have a defense, uhh… like what’s the holdup? The “Teflon Don” from your history books was eventually convicted, even after it seemed his ability to escape consequences was limitless.
