The real hope here is the increased factionalism that will be the hallmark of this regime. They will all vie against each other for the approval of The King. Musk, who is at least arguably very competent, will fall out with Trump very soon. Squabbles & turf wars will abound….

4. Non-stupid people always underestimate the damaging power of stupid individuals. In particular, non-stupid people constantly forget that at all times and places, and under any circumstances, to deal and/or associate with stupid people always turns out to be a costly mistake;

The voters knew Trump was a convict; the trials were before the election; the prosecution per se was over. The OLC memo must be properly defined as to under what specific conditions a President can be prosecuted. As a former guy? As a President-Elect? With existing convictions? &c make the argument

Hope is not a strategy. Put the OLC memo to the test. Make them fight every inch and waste their time & effort. Enrage them. Nothing Dems do will stop the Trump Party trying to destroy it. Recognise the struggle is existential. 1 / 2

Dems continue to bring a knife to a gunfight. This is existential. Dems pine for the time of ‘normal Neocons’; GOP seeks to destroy Dems. WAKE THE FUCK UP! Make them fight gor every inch. The OLC memo is an opinion. Make SCOTUS define it in oral argument.

OLC memo is an opinion. Time to test it to destruction. If the roles were reversed they would do it absolutely. There are no rules in a lawless world.

Put the damned OLC memo to the test! We know how it will go but so what? Gum up the works, make them angry, force them to defend themselves at every step. Stop bringing a knife to a gunfight!

The party game Cards Against Humanity accused SpaceX of trespassing on land it bought on the US border to oppose Donald Trump’s border wall. Satellite imagery showed activity at the site www.bellingcat.com/news/2024/10...

Even though we probably know the outcome, burning through GOP energy, outrage & rolling the dice is exactly what they have been doing to great effect !

Even though we know how this would likely end it is now vital that Trump, et al, are made to burn cycles, time, capital on anything & everything….
