    wow I’m so glad he didn’t set a precedent; that must be why the fascist that came after him so strictly goes by the book now.

    I’d like to have what you’re having.

        Sometimes it is necessary for the long term good of humanity. Saying ‘we can’t use authoritarianism to beat authoritarians’ is the logic that got the nazis in power in Germany. The nazis should have been crushed early on, but instead liberals just kept appeasing them.

        crushing fascism is not authoritarian.

      what im saying is if he did he would be getting so much shit for having done so and very likely by the same types bitching about him not. its a classic damned if you do damned if you don’t. he would then be responsible for every use of it after him by certain types.

        that only matters if you care about your dumbass legacy more than the future of the country, which he certainly did, which is why he sought reelection in the first place.

          unless he did it in case alls that matters is caring about the rule of law and the future of the country rather than his dumbass legacy. cause then doing it was about his legacy but now not doing it was about his legacy. either way did it all for him or his kind and did the wrong thing.
