This dude basically got no punishment and yet still wants to not have to face consequences. He’s got a CVS reciept of felonies and was completely let go of any punishment from the last thing and he’s still mad?
Exhausting, and imagine if a Democrat did this shit.

No need. We saw the response to Obama's tan suit, arugula, fist bump, dijon mustard, etc, etc.
Trump seeks federal law overriding state's rights?
I feel like I've heard a complaint or two about this before...but from where?
I’m no political scientist or savvy follower of politics, but isn’t there a paragraph or two in the Declaration of Independence about our right (duty even) to overthrow such dictators…?
The Declaration of Independence is not a legal document in any way. It describes nothing about the law in the US or the rights of its citizens.
Ahh so it was like a free-spirited manifesto letter they wrote for posterity? Shame that it’s not a law or otherwise legally binding document.
I mean, it was a declaration that the colonies were going independent. You don’t right laws in a what amounts to a strongly worded letter.
The constitution is the legal document that setup the laws of the United States.
It also has something about militias and the security of a free state.
Yes, that’s part of the laws the constitution set up
Seems like it ain't much of a free state anymore
Judge should just respond with this:
He could just divest his stuff if it's too much
But then how could he enrich himself by being the head of state‽
Whoa whoa whoa, it's not like he has a peanut farm or something
Just swap working on this for your golf time.
Problem solved 🤝
One easy way for him to solve this would be to kill himself.
So; when do you states plan on your next civil war?
We'll come help you burn the white house down again. :) 🇨🇦
I wish, but no. It's going to be fascism and "principled" and meaningless #resitance
His legal team claims state court lawsuits undermine the presidency.
Oh no! It could cut into his golfing time!
That state of affairs -- President Jefferson's nightmare -- dishonors the the Presidency and debases the state courts that purport to control his actions,"
That ship fucking sailed under George w bush, that shit was set on fire with the first 4 years of trump
There is no honor to be found in this presidency anymore, not for the next 8 years
Congrats to the US of A on becoming the newest monarchy!
Monarchy or dicatorship... is there much difference between the two tho?
Yes there is. Or there can be. A monarchy doesn't automatically mean the King/Queen actually has power.
The Netherlands, for example, is a monarchy, but is a parliamentary representative democracy. I think monarchies are ridiculous, we should just get rid of it. But you definitely can't call Willem-Alexander a dictator.
Indeed. European monarchies are like this. The monarch has no real power, they can only sign the laws passed by the parliament. It's basically like a president of the republic in countries like Italy. Except you can't vote to choose a new one.
Turd's model of monarchy is akin to those absolutists we remember before France invented their well known and completely democratic way of unelecting a king.
The English parliament unelected a king by similarly sharp means over a century before that, though they left the aristocrats alone.
QEII left a power vacuum and yes I'm ignoring Charles King Nothing
citing the burdon of managing numerous pending cases.
It's so easy to not have numerous pending cases against you in the first place. I want nothing more than for this dipshit to be stuck in court defending every one of his illegal actions taken the last 55 years. Couldn't happen to a better person.
Temporary.
lol.
Everyone is going to buy it too.
Looks like someone needs to take up the mantle of the world's sexiest man alive, User4616250, after he gets out of office either by force or otherwise.
lawsuits during his presidency would distract from his official duties
that is covfefe, golfing and making ai slop executive orders?
Jesus, look at the language in those quotes. Even trump's legal briefs felate him.
Meh... It's too much. The storm of obsene dystopian shit is just overwhelming. Wake me up when he's Supreme Leader for life,
