On topic after topic, President Trump made clear that he would be the arbiter of any limits to his authorities, not international law or treaties.

Its not like the American Revolution and Constitution are total rejections of this view or anything.

Remember when the bootlickers were responding, "We don't have kings in this country, we have a President."? Biggest fucking whoosh of the century so far. I'm convinced they sincerely missed the point, like they were reveling in correcting the semantics. Fucking idiots.

Soooooooo.......no restraint then? I don't believe people who fuck kids HAVE morality.

He doesn't just fuck kids, he rapes them. Often times brutally by sworn testimony.

[–] Hylactor@sopuli.xyz 37 points 1 day ago

If it's kids, it's always rape.

That's the joke. The problem is I have clown phobia. And this orange shitass is fast turning into pennywise...🤡

Also when you have 5400 nuclear warheads and shown to be insane enough to use them, who can say no?

Unsurprising coming from someone who was quoted saying this on his Venezuela actions:

“MAGA loves it. MAGA loves what I’m doing. MAGA loves everything I do," Trump said. "MAGA is me. MAGA loves everything I do, and I love everything I do, too."

When asked why he needed to possess the territory, he said: “Because that’s what I feel is psychologically needed for success. I think that ownership gives you a thing that you can’t do, whether you’re talking about a lease or a treaty. Ownership gives you things and elements that you can’t get from just signing a document.”

Why does that sound actually coherent?

"If it weren’t for me, Russia would have all of Ukraine right now.”

NYT Followed that quote up directly with a photo of a Ukranian soldier in action. gg

gangster realtor sees countries as a realtor extortionist, obsessed with owning land as fascists always are.
