No no no no, you don't get it.

BIDEN is not a king. Because the conservative owned SCOTUS will rule that whatever crimes he commits in office are not done as official business.

TRUMP is the future first monarch. Only his crimes will be deemed official business.

This ruling is just setting him up for a SCOTUS pardon, which they just granted themselves the power to do, so he can assume his throne.

SCOTUS gave themselves the power to absolve the POTUS of crimes. And POTUS already has the power to absolve anyone else of federal crimes.

Yep. Totally what the founders wanted.

George Washington would put trump in the fucking ground faster than you could say king of America

[-] samus12345@lemmy.world 48 points 5 months ago

Washington's ghost: "Let's see how America is getting along."

"..."

"Welp, I tried to warn them political parties were a bad idea."

I've been assured he was 12 stories high and made of radiation

Nukes are mined from Washington's grave, and the only reason Russia and other nations also have them is because he once wandered a bit too far into Siberia and froze his toes off on a trip that was just meant to explore the northwestern reaches of the new continent. He leaped to the Diomede islands and his toes dipped into the water, he walked into Russia with wet shoes.

He'll save the children but not the Palestinian children?

I had the Mental Image of George calmly setting aside his false teeth before suplexing Trump so hard that you could measure it on the Richter scale.

Washington was surrounded by Trump-like figures during his Presidency and profited handsomely from their patronage. His administration only put you in the ground if you were a Pennsylvania wheat farmer trying to dodge a huge new tax on your most efficient method of commodity preservation.

[-] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

Indeed he would.

[-] lurch@sh.itjust.works 29 points 5 months ago

what if he keeps executing SCOTUSes until they agree to absolve him?

[-] Wrench@lemmy.world 38 points 5 months ago

Yep, I drew out a plausible plan in another thread on how that could work.

Arrest them on corruption, Espionage, domestic terrorism, etc charges. Either move them to an offshore blacksite, or "accidentally" kill them during the arrest.

That would certainly fall under "official acts", and if it's overstepping authority, well, who cares because even if they're deemed crimes, they were done in the context of official duties to keep this country safe.

And then when the corrupt SCOTUS members are purged, fill the seats with those that will uphold that Bidens orders were official acts. And Biden can pardon those executing his orders.

This is exactly what the SCOTUS just enabled. It's absolutely abhorrent. And Biden would never do it because it's obviously anti democratic and would establish a dictatorship.

But Trump WILL do it. And the current SCOTUS will allow it.

Then we’ll have to explain it to them in ways they would have understood.

[-] GBU_28@lemm.ee 10 points 5 months ago

If Biden were a just president, he would destroy the justices until they imprisoned him and fixed the law

[-] ironhydroxide@sh.itjust.works 16 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Only his crimes

What crimes? All I see is official business. Especially that guy he had killed because he was on 5th Ave. -- supreme court

[-] zaph@sh.itjust.works 12 points 5 months ago

That's checks and balance baby

[-] GBU_28@lemm.ee 11 points 5 months ago

Well if he used his power to destroy the republicans on the supreme court, then the Democrat justices threw him in jail, the republic would be saved.

It's literally the minimum viable cost to reset democracy and order
