If you break the law and nobody enforces it, did you really break the law?
-
They don't care.
This entire debate relies on the assumption that they have any respect for the law. Nobody, literally not a single person in that administration will be held accountable for breaking the law.
They'll try 200 different laws, orders, whatever. 180 of them will be declared illegal. And then what? Nothing. No punishment at all.
And they'll try again and again and again. Slowly eroding the entire government.
-
There should be an amendment that if you break the law and don't reverse it or ignore it, an impeachment will automatically be initiated.
-
Unfortunately impeachment is also meaningless. I don't see a circumstance where 67 senators would ever vote to convict.
The only thing that might work is to be barred from public office and placing the secret service under congressional control to enforce it. But since presidents are untouchable kings now, 2/3rds of Congress and state legislatures are never going to give that up when they could be the king one day themselves.

If you can't enforce it, it's not a law.

I'm other news water is wet

Hi, other news.

Thanks, legal experts. Now who can or will punish him? The judiciary he stacked? The Law he disregards and dismantles? A feckless Congress? Please. That court order is notarized toilet paper.
-
If he broke the law then that means he's going to prison right?
He's going to be physically removed from office and put in a prison cell right?
-
The Supreme Court will say he's fine though since he can't do anything wrong as president apparently.
-
-
And what about it? So you think Congress will do anything about it? That the courts would do anything about it? Democrats are powerless to do anything about it, not like I would expect them to put up any fight to begin with. The rest of America going to do crap about it? Do you think the farmers who voted to getting fucked by this will do anything about it?
My guess would be no. Let the farmers who voted for it find out.

We gotta get the dems back in there so they can follow the law and not do shit until they "lose" to the next fascist. \s \s \s

Wake me up when he's held accountable for any of the countless times he's broken the law.
I too would love to sleep forever.
Considering we're at probably over 100 broken laws yea ...
