      Donald Trump should be killed by the people of the United States, and that killing is not a crime because it is self-defense. This comment will be removed

        If there is an impeachment (meaning Congress/Senate actually doing their jobs), followed by imprisonment, meanwhile new free elections and finally a trial… If the trial reaches the conclusion the death penalty is what he should get for his crimes, “the US people killing Trump” would be completely legal in any sense of the word and to any foreign, independent observer. People have gotten legal death penalties for much less and in way more dubious circumstances in the USA in rather recent times…

          When are the shitjustworks guys going to realise this just doesn’t work. These are all rules we already tried to follow, and he keeps making things worse for everyone, while lying and enriching soulless sycophants daily.

          The US democracy doesn’t have that kind of time. The people don’t have that kind of time. The climate and the planet and all of humanity don’t have that kind of time.

          He declared war on everything we stand for. At what point do we just say fuck the rules, off with his head, it’s gone too far?

          You’re still debating, and intellectualising this. It is not a debate if you’re snatched off the street, an unpaid govt worker, or his political foes.

          Think of 3 more really unthinkable borderline illegal things he could do. He will have done 3 of those in the next half year. The incrementalism is how these types win. It must end.

            I don’t follow USA politics to every detail: has there been an impeachment attempt? Problem is not me intellectualising, it’s representatives of the people: Congress & senate, not doing their jobs. Their job is not being a yes person to the president. It’s representing the people. The culture where they are headless chicken was installed long before trump. Yet they and their institutions are the way to end this properly, cleanly and with enough representative power so it does not lead to civil war. The president needs to seek approval of Congress for policy, not the other way around. Some random murder in the street scenario is a recipe for disaster for everyone. It creates an enormous power vacuum. The Congress way avoids that. It is the least worrying path this can go down…
