My 6 year old daughter is less gullible than Trump.

I think what people cling to regarding the Constitution, is not that it protects democracy, but that it’s intended to protect the public from authoritarian rule. It was written explicitly in response to the dictatorial behavior of King George lll.

The whole “democracy” part was always intended to be flawed, in favor of the wealthy landowners that wrote it…but the protections provided by it, were meant to prevent any future leader from ever threatening their personal freedoms.

It’s really too bad they never hard-coded the steps necessary to actually prevent a dictator from taking power, though. That sure would have been useful right about now.

Right. Because that system would never be abused by the wealthy, to influence elections. Just look at how great things are in the US. Virtually corruption free, down there.

Yup, indeed. Fuckin’ great idea. smh.

While the rest of us got a trillion dollars poorer.

“MAY violate the 1st amendment”? Ummm…there’s not a lot of ambiguity here. It ABSOLUTELY violates the 1st amendment.

Dump the chump.

NDP will always be my 1st choice…except when they have no clear chance of beating the Conservative candidate. Then you gotta go with whoever does.

What did you mean…Trump loves Jews. They’re the only ones he wants counting his money.

Hasn’t it always been about the cost to businesses? This is just them admitting it, for once.

Oh, now that’s as sweet as maple syrup.

This is the moment when we find out how many US soldiers have the balls to uphold their oath to the Constitution above all else, and refuse to comply with an obviously illegal order.

Welcome back to the Dark Ages.

Don’t worry, kids. That’s just the man the Easter Bunny ate.

That would be “the carrot”. Trump prefers “the stick”.

It’s actually terrifying. Imagine the people deciding whether or not to kill you, are too stupid to be reasoned with.

Once again…Trump doesn’t seem to understand what words mean, and his lackeys are twisting themselves into pretzels trying to make it sound like he does.

You’ll have to ask them.

Was that based on Zelenski saying that would never happen?

Except that being able to drive is often required to obtain, as well as hold down a job. So, it’s not a matter of the license being a human right, it’s what taking away someone’s license would do to their ability to survive.

There is the basic human right that says once a person has served their time for a crime, they should be allowed to reintegrate back into society again. That means restoring their ability to access basic services that everyone else relies on…including a driver’s license. Or do you think they should be penalized permanently?
