      I think I’ve seen this before and I know the solution. Time to use the “Bugs Bunny Maneuver”.

      Impeach Trump.

      Impeach Democrats.

      Impeach Trump.

      Impeach Democrats.

      Impeach Democrats.

      Impeach Trump.

      Gottem.

      Is this supposed to be some kind of black hole generating statement? It’s so circular my brain can’t compute, and is likely to collapse into an infinitely dense mass of recursive calls for removal, known as a black hole.

        Why it’s so simple!!

        1. The Democrats call for Trump to be removed.
        2. Trump calls for the Democrats to be removed for calling for Trump to be removed.
        3. The Democrats call for Trump to be removed for calling the Democrats to be removed for calling for Trump to be removed.

        If that’s confusing, here’s another explanation: https://lemm.ee/post/62907212/20135347

        It is actually not that dense when it is larger. The observable universe weighs 10^53 kg, which would make its schwarzachild radius about 1.5x10^26 m. The radius of the observable universe is 8x10^26. A density of about 10^-23 kg/m³.

      He’s not a crybaby. He’s trying to make dissent illegal in preparation for a fascist takeover of the government.

      Literally always crying, I have no idea how anyone in maga views Trump as a “strong man.” The idea is laughable.

        No dictators in America.

        Only traitors who want to be dictators.

        And it’s up the people to decide what they want.

    “…some of which they argue are undermining democratic norms.”

    That there is known as a “load-bearing clause,” and Newsweek should know better than to put it under such heavy strain. The entire article is likely to collapse—much like the media’s collective spine—if it gives way.

    If he tries that. Time for more mass protests. Shut down the streets and major highways by parking cars along them. Surround Maralago. Stop anyone from entering or leaving until Trump is removed.

      The time for that is now.

      If he unconstitutionally purges Democrat lawmakers, then it will be time for a different phase of resistance…
