Do you people literally live in the states and not just listen to be calls... The trump election calls.
Like how fucking dunse do you need to be to still want a king, and not actually check the crimes he committed.
Having them as neighbors and family makes it no less insane if you, like, pay attention to the world. Or if you give a shit about other people getting a shot at a decent life.
Every four years, conservatives have to fight to get their team into office. That's expensive and difficult and often requires compromise with a bunch of people they hate.
To quote former president George W Bush:
A king undermines the concept of a republican party. You see that right!?
Trump literally tried to go against governmental policy. Republican policy too...
That's a good bush joke.. you even included the part where he admits the joke. Hehehe
These are all just name tags anyway. Republicans aren't any more pro-Republicanism than Democrats are pro-Democracy. Hell, even the Libertarians aren't particularly libertarian, unless you take that crap about Anarcho-Capitalism at the most superficial face value.
Sure. But he's allowed to do that if you just assert the government policy was wrong/illegal/bad. That's one of the fundamental problems with bland legalism. Any lawyer worth their salt can argue both ends of a case convincingly and lots of the appellate court judges are political creatures who only hear what their paymasters tell them to.
Bush put "Unitary Executive" in the American political lexicon. If he was joking, he certainly didn't act like it.
