The FCC chairman just threatened to pull ABC’s license because of a comment Jimmy Kimmel made about Charlie Kirk, and ABC just indefinitely took him off the air. This is the sort of thing you’d expect in Russia, not America.But let’s back up a minute.First, those who use violence come for the politi...
He could’ve shown up at the Supreme Court holding a shotgun with “OFFICIAL ACTS” engraved down the barrel, but noooo
I mean, what you said is funny, but more so because it does actually proved an excellent analogy for what Biden could have done to actually stop Trump.
Becaue Trump literally showed up to Congress with a double barreled shotgun engraved with “executive order,” and “legal immunity” on each barrel. Then used it to bypass Congress entirely when it came to canceling appropriated funds, passing blanket Tariffs, and expanding the executive branch to include independant agencies like the FTC and SEC.
So Biden unquestionably could have done the same to the Judiciary branch, and forced an expansion of the Supreme Court without congressional approval to avoid the absolute disaster we’ve been experiencing from our highest Court since the Roe V Wade decision.
He very much could have showed up at the Supreme Court with the exact shotgun Trump is now using to rule by force. Instead he chose to follow norms, as every Democrat has before him. So now Trump chose the gun to destroy those norms, as he likewise always has before. Just now with the full support of the Supreme Court, and complete legal immunity behind him.
And no surprise, he’s done quite a lot of damage with all that legal immunity Biden left unused.
Seriously, this analogy is an excellent one for all the reasons you likely didn’t intend. (Sorry about that). However, imo, it does make your comment funnier on another level to be honest.
