    Some future President needs to make it a priority to round up every bastard who was complicit in the crimes of the Trump administration and put them behind bars.

    Hah, not holding my breath on that one.

      The only way Trump will relinquish power is when he dies either of natural causes or otherwise. He’s trying to manufacture a conflict now so that he can use it as justification for suspending elections. It’s exactly how Putin got into power. He was elected, probably legally, and then just refused to leave when his term was up.

      The only difference between Trump and Putin is that Trump hasn’t gotten to the end of his term yet, so still has a vague wiff of legitimacy.

      Looking back at the entire history of the USA doesn’t give us good feelings that this is going to happen.

    Why can’t people just tell Trump that they’ve done these things, and then just have like a shadow government that actually works. Why are people actually taking orders from this psychopath?

    He’s actually starting to threaten World War 3 again, and quite a lot of Americans seem to be going “oh well obviously I don’t agree with it but what can we do”. Nothing, that’s what you do, you simply do not do what he tells you to do. Ignore him.

      Because he isn’t the only psychopath pulling the strings.
