(38,206 posts)the reality is that he has been doing whatever he wants since taking over the country.
I cannot believe people actually think laws mean he cannot do anything he wants. No law has stopped him yet. He gets away with everything.
If those laws are not enforced, he can do whatever he wants, and he has so far.
I mean, the thing they finally impeached him on was going after Biden's son, not stealing the election using Putin and hackers in 2016. Why wasn't he impeached for that?
Think about that one for a minute. He should have been impeached on that from the get go, but was not.
If no one will enforce the laws we have in America, what good does it do to even have them?
He has been getting by with anything and everything, including stealing the 2016 election and sending ventilators and PPE to Putin while American doctors and nurses make do with homemade PPE. He has been intercepting shipments to states controlled by Democratic governors while people die. He has been hoarding up PPE that American taxpayers paid for and saying it belongs to "us" meaning it does not belong to the rest of America. We fucking paid for it. Yes, hell, it does.
Doctors have been going to hardware stores to buy garden hoses and electronic times to make makeshift ventilators.
All of these things, other than the 2016 election, Trump has done just in the last couple of months, as people lay dying. He has been doing whatever he wants and no one is holding him accountable at all for anything.
Why wouldn't he go ahead and steal the election or refuse to leave? No one would stop him. He could do it, easily, with this corrupt, lazy ass Congress. They haven't gone after him for anything so far except fucking with the Bidens. All of the stuff he has done to states, Democratic governors, even inciting violence against them and calling open season on minorities over and over again, none of it has even registered as a blip on the radar of Congress so far. They aren't doing anything to stop him.
So, why wouldn't he do whatever he wants then and steal the 2020 election too? No one would stop him. No one would do anything. All the big, bad keyboard warriors who say that cannot happen or all hell would break loose are full of shit. He'll do as he damn well pleases and no one will do a damn thing.
Congress, who are supposed to be investigating wrongdoing and our courts, who are now stacked with his appointees and right wing majorities, who could rule things he does as unconstitutional, are doing nothing to stop him and the rest of the Republicans from all of the law breaking and wrongdoing they are doing.
How can anyone, at this point, NOT think he will not try to stay in power forever? He can. Nothing is stopping him and nothing will.
Once you notice how much he has done that should have been at least spoken out against, you cannot unsee it. It lets you know, really quick, he could just stay in power as long as he wants and no one would do anything about it.
