By his own words, he should be hanged for sedition.

[-] LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.world 12 points 6 days ago

Not sure the rope is still a viable option, capital punishment still exists but I assume it would be the electric chair or that euthenizing drug that some places have deemed to inhumane to use on animals.

[-] Triumph@fedia.io 16 points 6 days ago

Any port in a storm.

[-] Soapbox@lemmy.zip 10 points 5 days ago

Firing squad. I'd wager you would have plenty of volunteer squad members.

[-] frog_brawler@lemmy.world 11 points 5 days ago

I bet if $1 lottery tickets were being sold to win one of five positions on the firing squad; we’d have enough money to end homelessness in the US.

Come now we haven't used firing squads in the U.S. since uhhh... 3 times this year. South Carolina playing it hot I guess

The other new execution method is Nitrogen Asphyxiation. Safe, efficient, inexpensive. No sense wasting a lot of money on PedoCon Traitors.

I thought they voted against that because of religion or something

👋OOOH! OOOH! PICK ME!👋

I'm sure you could make an exception for the president. After all, he specifically requested it.

[-] Lushed_Lungfish@lemmy.ca 1 points 5 days ago

Razor wire.

[-] kata1yst@sh.itjust.works 84 points 6 days ago

I've never seen a sociopath attempt to gaslight a plaque before. It's bold, it's fresh.

[-] Zephorah@discuss.online 16 points 6 days ago

It’s classic Cluster B Personality.

[-] nova_ad_vitum@lemmy.ca 3 points 5 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

The theory that he can't and doesn't ever read (like, at all) could also apply here.

[-] nulluser@lemmy.world 73 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

Did he actually post that, or is this a clever hoax?

Edit: OMG https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/115601892410000128

No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof.

[-] FinalRemix@lemmy.world 44 points 5 days ago

If the president could read, he'd be very upset.

[-] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 17 points 5 days ago

Those of us that can read are.

[-] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 4 points 5 days ago

14th Amendment, Section 3. I was screaming through the entire Biden administration that Trump, and EVERY other MAGA that defended, supported, and encouraged his violent insurrection should have been prohibited from ever holding office for the rest of their lives.

Those that weren't executed for it, that is.

[-] DickFiasco@sh.itjust.works 47 points 6 days ago

I think he just read the word "Loyalty" and figured that was good enough.

[-] logicbomb@lemmy.world 22 points 6 days ago

Trump reads at an extremely low level compared to his position, so I think your explanation is probably most consistent with Hanlon's razor.

[-] LucidNightmare@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 5 days ago

He can't read.

[-] Rentlar@lemmy.ca 35 points 6 days ago

Ignore Trump's illegal orders. Got it.

[-] Zombie@feddit.uk 7 points 5 days ago

I think they're going by the Supreme Court's ruling that everything done in an official capacity by the president is legal, therefore any order Trump gives is the law and thus cannot be illegal.

It's stupid, but that's never stopped them before.

Wow, I didn't even think of that. It's really dumb and doesn't hold up to even mild scrutiny but that hasn't stopped them in the past.

[-] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 22 points 5 days ago

Posting a vibe instead of understanding what you‘re posting. Like republicans playing Born in the USA because of the refrain and not understanding the lyrics.

[-] Lasherz12@lemmy.world 30 points 6 days ago

What a dumbass. Dude just called for the death of congress members saying the exact same thing.

[-] FordBeeblebrox@lemmy.world 18 points 5 days ago

He doesn’t realize that following those orders means we have a duty to relieve him of command…by force if necessary.

ITS AN OATH TO THE CONSTITUTION NOT DER FUHRER YOU ASSHATS

[-] myfunnyaccountname@lemmy.zip 20 points 5 days ago

The only thing that fat makeup wearing pedophile has read was the McDonald’s menu while getting his diaper changed.

[-] Lennny@lemmy.world 6 points 5 days ago

Doubtful, remember hamberder? Dude can't read that menu.

[-] muzzle@lemmy.zip 21 points 6 days ago

This is going to age like fine milk.

[-] muffedtrims@lemmy.world 10 points 6 days ago

The finest of milk sitting under the hot sun

[-] Formfiller@lemmy.world 13 points 5 days ago

Reading comprehension has never been his strong point

[-] nulluser@lemmy.world 6 points 5 days ago

You say that like he has a strong point.

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 5 points 5 days ago

He can ruin a casino like nobody else, and I don't like casinos

[-] Formfiller@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

He does being absolute proof beyond a shadow of a doubt that guillotines are necessary to fix society by being morally bankrupt and entitled about everything.

[-] rockSlayer 8 points 5 days ago

He likely posted this because he genuinely believes that his will is the exact same thing as following the constitution. He's deluded enough to believe that he can do no wrong, so opposing him is tantamount to sedition.

[-] Frozengyro@lemmy.world 7 points 5 days ago

I am the ~~Senate~~ constitution

[-] ConstantPain@lemmy.world 3 points 4 days ago

This logic falls apart if your job depends more on obey orders than to obey the law...

[-] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 3 points 5 days ago

Some civil servant is being called right now, and told that he needs to get his ass off his Thanksgiving couch, and get to work to find that plaque and remove it by the end of the day.

[-] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 4 points 5 days ago

. . . not to believe the evidence of their eyes and ears . . .
