I'm honestly more impressed at how much leeway trolls get. If blacklab was around he would be swinging the "shitposting" banhammer like crazy.
Stassney isn't contributing to the thread or discussion, he's just arguing with zero evidence that the self-admitted racist lady must have had a good reason to do what she did. Which is what a fucking racist peice of shit would say.
Naw, blacklab wouldn't consider stassney's posts shitposting. That's reserved for lib ideas in non-Elon DT threads.

God damnit. The Ignore button was such a Godsend when I fucking used it to ignore Stassney. But y’all have to keep quoting him. Don’t!!! For fucks sakes, just respond to his post(s) without quoting them. They’re all the fucking same anyway. It’s like I’m playing cards with my brother’s kids or something. Nerve racking sons of bitches.
You would think most of the board’s posters would’ve learned by now not to engage with the most obvious trolling imaginable, but I guess expecting any Americans to learn anything is a fool’s errand.

Maggats have not yet figured out that if the Supreme Court overturn most of the tariffs, and despite Trump saying they will just redo the tariffs with different statutory authority, that does NOT mean that they won’t have to return all of the tariffs previously collected that are illegal.
Which will allow the Democrats to say that Trump invoked tariffs that resulted in killing farmers profitability, raising prices for everyone in order to pay for billionaire tax cuts, and after collecting tariff sums Trump bragged about, we had to return it, resulting in even more deficits, all caused by Trump’s desire to take care of his billionaire friends more than care about the every day, man and woman.
Buddy, that's already way too complicated for 80% of voters to understand.

But this is what bullies do- they have nothing but contempt for their toadies and put them against each other. They are afraid of conflict and send others to do their dirty work.
Trump doesn’t really fuck with Thune because Thune is the boss of his chamber and doesn’t do dance to Trump’s tune except when it works for him and his backers.Trump was nice to Mamdani because Mamdani has authentic swag and Trump likes to be photographed with handsome winners who have good hair.
Johnson is a short, nerdy, annoying kissass who people make fun of. He’s only interesting as long as he’s useful and he’s reached the limit of his utility. He will now be humiliated and discarded.I don't really disagree with any of this. But I assume Stefanik is savvy enough to be looking ahead to a post-Trump political future by now. Several Republicans are beginning to try to subtly separate from Trump without him realizing that's what they're doing, she's on the short list of Republicans smart and ambitious enough to do so, and if she were to do that it would look a lot like this.

Yeah, those people are losers.
And if you thought the Epstein files got him into office then I don't know what to tell you.
He's doing such a great job of distracting from it that everyone knows about it.
Put your tinfoil hat down. Touch grass etc.
When woke2 takes power we’re drone striking the hut in whatever Russian shithole gru operates out of.

For core constitutional functions, yes. The only remedy for presidential criminality is impeachment, which can presumably be followed by prosecution.
Under this scheme then, using pardons as an example of an undoubtedly core constitutional function, POTUS could profit to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars for pardons granted toward the end of a term when there is insufficient time to impeach.
This would have been a much better hypothetical horrible than "Seal Team 6 killing political enemies," that was dismissed as hysterical.
One problem with all this is, outside of Trump, it never comes up or has not in the last 250 years.
Congress could speed it up by enacting some Presidential crimes, though, and get a more sane Court to oveturn/revise the ruling.
After consideration, all presidential immunity should be presumptive, only, the presumption overcome by balancing the "chilling effect" against other considerations.
Given the thread subject, it's very funny that you're doing this thing about that hypo.

Rex poorly lying about his usernames...a tale as old as time. Pathetic, dude.
It’s so funny how many different posters we’ve had do this. You’d think the others would realize their denial is putting them on the same level as icono, but they lack even the tiniest amount of self awareness.

I'm not unconvinced that a big motivator in buying Twitter was to strategically steer the dialogue to goose TSLA stock prices and further enrich himself with stock price based compensation
The real motivator was a ton of ketamine and a vague idea about how owning Twitter would allow him to control information.

I finally watched One Battle After Another this weekend. Despite knowing better, a couple of times during the movie I had a kneejerk "lazy author, there's no subtlety or nuance to Sean Penn's character and there's obviously nobody like that in real life" response when Sean Penn was on screen. So thank you for this, somehow we all still periodically need a reminder that these people are worse and dumber than anyone could possibly imagine.
