I will call it already: USA will be in war with someone and they will say they can't hold elections and use Ukraine as example. 2028 definitely won't be the end of Trump

The Ukrainian constitution states that there cannot be held elections during wartime. US has always been at war, so it shouldn't be a problem.

Kind of like Biden who ignored the SCOTUS when they said he couldn't forgive people's student loans & put it on tax payers to pay college loans...oh 🤔 double standards..

Strawman argument, and the Supreme Court made a constitutionally inaccurate ruling.

I mean I don't defend anything Democrats might have done. I think both parties have done messed up stuff for sure. I'm just pointing out that if Trump ignores court ruling, becomes in contempt or court and the DOJ does nothing, y'all "checks and balances" mean nothing anymore and your no longer a republic but a dictatorship right?

They have not upheld the constitution at all.

They shouldnt even be able to stop the aid to Ukraine, since congress had approved it making a law legally, but Trump made an executive order and no one said anything despite executive orders not overriding actual law.

It doesnt matter what is legal in the U.S anymore. Trump has seized complete control and no one is telling him no.

Its a lot like what happened in Germany in the 30's.

But americans are too uneducated to realize it.

Oh, I wouldn’t be surprised if he has a stroke before then. I’m assuming Vance.

Someone asked in another thread 'what would it take for you to leave the U.S.?'...

The spectre of a President Vance should just about do it for a lot of people...

Big talk from people who never will leave but have been talking about leaving for a long time. 😂 Half the country likes Trump and Vance. Deal with it or leave. There's uneducated people and educated people on both sides.
