    Can we create a Judicial Guard that is basically a force to enforce court rulings? Like whatever they have now is clearly not working. This happened under Andrew Jackson too, so don’t tell me they never saw this coming.

    If nobody enforces court rulings they’re just an ethics council.

    Exactly what I said. Trump made the law irrelevant. And the Republicans cheer him for this.

          Oh it would be a private road. A nice alley lined with trophies of self-aggrandisement and narcissism, closed off to the public who only get to look on through a fence as he gets driven up and down his rue de merde (which someone told him is related to merit, so he ate it right up, because fact checking is for losers) in a pimped out golf cart.

    He thinks he holds the purse strings. We’ll use it to carry his head to the jeu de paume court.

        Honestly, Trump and Republicans in general aren’t that different from what one might imagine an American version of the Taliban to be like.

      He thinks that courts won’t have the support of police to enforce it, or that the Supreme Court will simply refuse to uphold any kind of sanction.
