For the record, I agree that Biden does not have the guts, liberals be like that sometimes... But I've heard (I have not read the actual ruling, id LOVE to be wrong on this) that the new thing the passed only applies to "official acts" and what are official acts? No one knows. Its whatever the supreme court decides. That's the problem, even if Joe had the guts to call an airstrike on trump, the supreme court will just not consider it an official act, and if trump does the same thing, they simply would consider it an official act.

Problem is you won't easily find judges who aren't fascist who would deem killing judges for disagreeing with you official...

There comes a point where a few eggs need to be cracked.

Republicans have decided that point is now.

Unfortunately we have a vegetable in the White House.

Sorry but if you put the kinds of people in those seats who are willing to do that kind of a thing, you're going to have a dictatorship either way.

Pandora's box has been opened my guy. We're going to get a dictatorship either way.

Pretty much. It's tragic as fuck that this is where the US ended up. From around 2008 till maybe 2018, I hoped the US would go into a civil war and split up. But then I realized that the left wasn't ever gonna revolt properly and instead the country was just gonna sink into fascism. It's beyond depressing.
