(12,545 posts)In a handful of days, our president and many other Democratic Party leaders, will stand on the same stage and shake his hand, slap him on the back, congratulating him on being president now.
At that very moment he will be commander in chief of the most powerful military force in the history of the world. A military force that he can send at least a portion of, against anyone he wants, anywhere in the world, without notice or permission from anyone.
He can use a completely secret process to declare any US citizen an "enemy combatant", strip them of their rights as US citizens and send them Gitmo.
Within his first hour of being in the WH, a member of our armed forces with a case handcuffed to his arm as well as a couple of armed forces members, will join him alone in the Oval Office and give him the run down on the "Football", the process and launch codes for launching our nuclear arsenal.
This selfish, narcissistic, petty, racist is the next president.
