Explain why he cant just have his guys defy the judges and just pardon them afterward off all wrongdoings over the last 80 centuries.
Because the pardon power only goes back to the drafting/signing of the constitution. He could certainly pardon them of their indiscretions of the last 2.5 centuries though
 
You're making the liberal mistake of assuming that there are no knock on effects or second order consequences.

An example of a fight with no weapons would be a boxing match. Sure you'd win, and maybe you could bribe the judges to not disqualify you, but eventually people will catch on that you fight illegally and refuse to enable it. Maybe you can bribe the police and be the mayor's son and get away with it for a while with the reporters saying you won legitimately, but eventually the sheer number of people required to back up your illegal actions will be too much and it'll all come crumbling down. Time is the greatest equalizer. It really, really sucks in the short term but lowering yourself to that level won't make it any better.
I've had to put up with globohomo front and center since the Chocolate Messiah hit the scene in 2008. I'm not saying Trump should send SEAL Team 6 to eliminate all his political opposition, I'm saying the Republicans should remind the Democrats that turnabout is fair play. The commies do not get to clutch pearls when there is ample evidence of them doing the exact same thing for years. Why do you think the Democrats didn't organize riots on the election certification day? Why do you think the Democrats cucked on the continuing resolution? They know the score.
 
probably deserve my clocks, but this is always nice to see. elon in favor of restoring the smith-mundt act.

Elon doesn't know what Smith-Mundt was.

Smith-Mundt relaxation was fedgov bowing to the fact that ethnic radio stations were just playing Voice of America content since they didn't have to pay royalties to anyone for it; technically it's without copyright.
 
I think congo is mineral rich but having to wade into the hutsi tutsi brother war isn't worth the effort.
I'm all for bombing the Congo. Let's do ittttttttt.

>ICE illegally deports people judge said to bring back
>Trump pardons ICE members

He absolutely can. The Courts are going to get packed by Trump over this. Roberts is signaling he's dropping his mask as a Swamp Creature siding with his fellow Federal Judge cohorts to undermine the President and I can see no resolution for this. The courts have no authority and everything they're doing is 1000% illegal and they have no recourse for it. Trump's only choice is to deal a devastating blow to the Judicial Branch by ignoring and defying their corruption or by simply saying "enforce it, nigger". Either way, Roberts is getting felted and now he's proving to be a serious problem.
 
somehow you entirely missed the point. there are no judges anymore. everyone is picking sides. everyone is partisan now. there are no neutral parties to officiate. they've brought this upon themselves by noticing there was no official to stop them and bringing brass knuckles to every boxing match and wearing them instead. now, without neutral parties, there are only winners and losers every time. in this case, if WE lose, we see it as the actual beginning of the end, or continuation of the end, of america. in my view, the beginning of the decline of humanity, too.
And now nobody is watching the matches and the organization is going bankrupt, and they have to determine if they will accept reforms or if a new organization will come up to replace them.

The Liberals have legitimate narcissism disorder. They will refuse to recognize that they are just getting back what they dished out and will cry foul and use their entire lie apparatus to make the Republicans look like the villains. If the Republicans maintain a level of decorum the people can make their own decisions, but if it's clear that the Republicans also do illegal shit the people can't determine if the scale is the same or not.
 
Hey pal I know you're retarded and fail to grasp this site's culture and function but you accidently wrote your own post in the quote field. I couldn't expect much else from a dipshit who tried arguing with me what 'pooner' meant and how it's actually really cool and epic to be one.

But your assuming the pressures to survive will push the Dems into making substantial positive improvements to their party instead of just forcing them to simply become more cunning.

That's where you aren't understanding me: I'm not proposing that the Republicans do anything illegal. I'm proposing that the Republicans do the same shit that the Democrats have done since 2008 and enshrined into law.

Furthermore: the longer the Democrats do this sore loser caterwaul routine where they lash out at everyone with accusations of bigotry, the more they will bleed voters. Sure, there are self-hating pajama boys who will vote for Democrats even when their platform is to openly rape children and murder all whites. However, that is not the majority of people, and the Democrats seem intent on circling the drain with their psychotic behaviour.

Thank goodness the US government only has the best intentions for it's citizens and would never repeal an anti-propaganda law in order to propagandize to it's citizens in other ways. Thank goodness it's excuse of radio stations wanting to play VOA recordings is the totally true reason and there's nothing else behind it.

no, that's literally what was going on, if there's one thing I truly am severely autistic about it's shortwave radio

if the fedgov was doing it all this time then the trump administration was doing it too, it doesn't suddenly become good when a person with (R) after his name does it

the problem is that you need to prove it was actually happening, shadowy shit like pointing to USAID funding part of a BBC global news agency ain't it

When was the Trump administration propagandizing in violation of what Smith-Mundt would have supposedly protected against?
