Control of the country so they like that. They love abusing others and love seeing police military and rightwingers abuse people.
They are not upset with republicans as tyrants because that's what they are.

Republicans have done everything they can to own the libs, emphasis on OWN,as in slaves.

near the White House. It really took his breath away.

This is Trump's Nixon-prays-with-Kissinger moment.

He wants to be able to say he tried to let the States handle it but they wouldn't listen to him so he "had to...".

Total dictator move

I say we stick with the cowardly hiding-in-the-bunker memes because this fits right in.

The act is legislation allowed under the constitution. It, by definition, cannot supersede that document.

That might not go over too well.

You know MF45 wouldn’t mind people getting killed. He already has blood on his hands for his handling of the pandemic and now this. He will really have to stay down in that bunker until January 21, 2021 when we’ll drag his lard ass onto the White House lawn when he’ll get justice he so justly deserves.
