Yes, except that Watergate happened and Nixon was shunned despite getting 60% of the vote and carrying 49 states, there was a time when even republicans didn't want a king.

That's even better. Two blood vessels that fuse and twist.

Tried to educate myself on what the pardon consists of (why?)...and found that there is no real separation between the executive branch and the judicial branch, because prosecution is up to the executive branch and the president can pardon whomever e.g.

For instance, George Washington pardoned participants in the Whisky Rebellion, in part because they enjoyed considerable popular support.

Meaning, you are above the law if you are popular enough: i.e. president, their friend, their agent or even just his rioter. Good thing the opposition to trump is popular too, right?

That's one of the things I love in lemmy. Moderation transparency.

The other day I visited youtube without any add-ons and concluded I'd rather do anything else than use youtube under those conditions.

Antitrust comes in waves in the US. First, it's a free for all to let the tech develop freely...then you see the horrors and a time of antitrust kicks in. This would be the 4th wave since the Sherman Act. Let's hope it's a good one.

I'd rather have him tried and imprisoned at the Hague. He destroys institutions. Institutions must destroy him in the end, not guns.

PS: and before the tankies rush in with their whataboutisms: Sinwar, Netanyahu and Dubbya should be made an example of too.
