time and time again it has been proven that spending most of your time calling people names and focusing on a niche group when fair or not basic shit isn't in the best spot atm is a losing gameplan

I think trans rights are human rights. I don't think people should be deported willy nilly. I think that Abortion should be the woman's choice and all that liberal jazz...however dying on the hill of allowing someone who still has male traits compete against those who don't is not something that reads well. The Kamala is for they/them and Trump is for YOU was a goddam bar.  The abortion thing is tricky because from a quick glance it seems like it will stop those who get it just because rather than the rape/death/incest reasons, no? And while yeah shit sucks...those who ILLEGALLY enter the country probably should be sent back. All of the main things they campaigned on seems to have "reasonable" enough outs that the most normal not online don't feel as strongly for them as the ERA types think they should. The Hamas war thing was also a weird thing to be hung up about.

I don't know if Trump will go full MAGATARD and stop all the trans, deport every latino, and make ALL abortion illegal by firing squad. He technically has the power to do so but considering idk what the fuck he did last time he was president (hows that wall coming along lol) I doubt it beyond things that right or wrong most americans would probably agree with even if only in private.

I just want the libs to actually learn that being a total stick in the mud annoying shithead doesn't work....but considering what I am seeing....lolno

Let me explain something since I don’t see it mentioned here, and if it is apologies. 

Since Roe v Wade was struck down by the court that Trump stacked, certain states not only outlawed abortion, they are actively charging mothers with crimes and arresting them because they had a miscarriage. These states have no exceptions. Women are left in the parking lot to bleed out because doctors are afraid to work on them.

Not only do they arrest the mother who miscarried, there are states that will arrest anyone who helps a mother travel to get an abortion in a legal state. States like Oklahoma, Texas, and Idaho have bounty laws that allow citizens to sue or help law enforcement find those who had abortions. This is heinous stuff. Trump said he doesn’t believe in having zero exceptions and doesn’t believe in short bans but he stacked the court to allow this! Also, these issues became less of an incentive for some states because they implemented good abortion laws.

It’s still a huge issue. People are still dying from this. It’s cruel.

Quote:This is odd that posters here are saying "this is unconstitutional and would never hold up." The law is not a computer program; it doesn't go "if A, then B." It's a living thing that has to be interpreted AND enforced by human beings.

There are so many ways for an activist Court to interpret the law. "All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside."

OK, well, what about "and subject to the jurisdiction thereof?" That's an "and" there which means both conditions have to be met. The Court could easily argue that children born to illegal immigrants are not subject to the jurisdiction of the US because their parents are criminals that have not yet been deported.

And what about when babies are born to citizens abroad, like Ted Cruz? Well, their parents create a little US bubble so the baby is a citizen from birth. Maybe the Court says the opposite happens. When two criminals are here illegally, they create a little bubble of non-US soil and the baby is not born in the US.

There is so much a justice or attorney can do when sufficiently motivated.

The final law lies in whether people will riot when a certain interpretation is enforced. Any when they start denaturalizing brown babies and kicking them out, do you really think people will riot? There's nothing to suggest that this is any more likely to happen than general apathy.

Quote:the interesting thing is removing a supreme court justice requires a 75 vote in the Senate so 20+ democrats would have to vote to impeach a supreme court justice. That is a bit of a fascinating political calculus, do you vote to impeach a republican SCOTUS judge for voting "your way" on a political issue? They would just be replaced by someone worse so initial logic says absolutely not but I dunno if there is something I am missing.

One interesting side affect of doing something like this via Executive Order (not legal but ignoring that for a second) means the constitution and amendments are not "sacrosanct" which is a thing conservatives tend to use as a fundamental plank, free speech, guns, etc can never change because its in the constitution. Well, the 14th amendment gives birthright citizenship. If you strip that, then every amendment is also fungible. Then again, womens right to vote and equal protection for all regardless of gender/race is also an amendment.

Correct, this was already heavily telegraphed during the Trump campaign.

You have no cause for complaint that the Constitutional rights you have as an American were stripped away, if the very fact that you are an American is taken from you.

It was the evil we didn't even want to talk about after somebody taught Trump the word "birthright" and he slowly sounded it out and made the word for the first time with his mouth while he traced each letter with his finger.

Yet here we fucking are. The threat of this person turning anyone who didn't vote for him into a "political refugee" is all too real.
Quote:Trump could use the military against any protests against him. The Supreme Court has already deemed Trump to be completely immune from any legal prosecution for any use of "core presidential powers" ie, commanding the military.

You might think that sounds absurd and will never happen, but considering in his first term Trump already questioned his advisors about why they couldn't just shoot protestors and now more guard rails than ever are gone, it's more likely than you might think.

It's not even doomerism. It's going to be as bad as people have been saying it would be. There are no longer barriers in place for Trump. He has an open lane.

My intent is not to both sides things or say what about white people. I just want everyone to not underestimate how vile and evil these people are. These are weak people always the victim, always shifting the blame to others.
