    Exactly, stop going after trump. Go after every officer and government agents who followed those orders. See how fast they enforce his bullshit when they’re facing personal consequences

        Not on state charges. But Newsom doesn want the optics of going after the troops for illegally kicking the shit out of his own constituants, because that would play terribly with the only important demographic for democrats, republican voters.

        Maybe someday we’ll honor the 14th amendment, nullifying 47th’s term, rendering all of his pardons void

        You know, since enemies of the US cannot hold office

            I’ve got no problem with the people bearing arms so they may rise up against a tryannical government… like one that has masked goons kidnapping farm workers and meat packers.

        Yeah, but maybe Trump issuing illegal orders to the military and offering pardons to those that follow them would be the catalyst Congress needs to pass an amendment limiting presidential pardon power.
