    Trump and his supporters don't care about a person's service to our country, or their sacrifices, and certainly not their credentials - just look at the way the makeup wearing reality TV host rapist treated General Mattis.

    And they sure don't care about helping people, or who can do the best job. Just who can best serve their hero.

    So the answer is probably yes.

    Poster is wrong again. DJT was, in fact, impeached, twice. On convincing, to the House, charges that were high crimes and misdemeanors, bribery or treason. Take your pick.

    For those that weren't aware, the opening scenes of the Handmaid's Tale involve the fact that the government abolished The Constitution and froze all women's bank accounts.

    Part of Project 2025 is to make it illegal for women to work outside the home.

    Be afraid.

    resisting what is the question. Loyalty to the constitution? to the country? or just to your orange god? It actually matters.

    I was responding to a post suggesting that they should fire the top 20 people in every agency when a new president comes in by noting that is exactly what already happens…

    Well, the Oxford Dictionary definition draws the line at violence.

    Regardless, as I pointed out, if you were trying to argue that Republicans need to get rid of career employees due to disloyalty and replace them with political appointees, the notion that a political appointee of Trump didn't like Trump is not exactly a strong piece of evidence. In fact, I'd argue it as a strong piece of evidence for many other things, such as that Trump was really so awful that his own people, those that he selected, didn't like him.

    You have to give a whole lot.

    That way Trump can get elected, avoid appropriate incarceration, and break all laws possible in order to maximize the value of his crummy Truth Social platform and DJT stock.

    He just needs YOUR donations to get him over the top. But after that he'll really really like and respect you. A whole whole lot.

    Hey GatorBen - you are not keeping up dear boy. If there is a new President, there will not be a 20 person at the top purge at the Marine Corps, Corps of Engineers, Joint Chiefs of Staff, etc.

    Any president actually probably could (it’s an interesting but not terribly controversial question of the President’s constitutional powers as commander in chief), but not exactly relevant to the point I was making given that none of those are federal “departments” or “agencies” in the first place.

    But I am enjoying having multiple people who can’t follow the point I am making well enough to realize that I don’t disagree with them in the first place, and that what I’m saying is entirely consistent with their own arguments, fuss at me for not “keeping up.”

    To the government elected by the people. These people believe what they think matters more than the people and their elected representatives. This is really the issue.

    I gave the best example earlier. Alexander Vindman did not like that Trump made his own decisions after reviewing the recommendations of the NSC. Never mind that Trump is the president and leader of the free world, do it the way we in the NCS tell you to. (shaking head)

    Yeah, bad news for you bro: Trump cannot commit crimes even if that would excite you that it's "his way."

    Cannot coerce allies for political gain, leveraging the weight of the US government.

    Sorry to disappoint you, and people like you, who apparently enjoy criminality. But don't come gaslighting and lying here and not expect to be called out on your lies.
