There are way, way too many posts to quote across almost every thread on the site these days, but I really get a kick out of the tut-tut posting that a huge amount of posters have committed so much time it. It goes like this.
Trump: Does anything
Poster: Well this power doesn't belong to the executive so it'll likely not happen/get mired down in legal challenges/be functionally ineffectual
Very Smart Poster: How many times do you have to learn this lesson!? Norms and rules mean nothing. Trump now controls the weather!
Just the level of commitment to being knowingly wrong here is really impressive. "Stop considering events within their contextual framework! It's important that you and everyone on this forum believe that The Camps are Imminent and Nothing Can Stop Him!"
