“(With) today’s Supreme Court decision on presidential immunity, that fundamentally changed. For all practical purposes, there are virtually no limits on what the president can do. It’s a fundamentally new principle and it’s a dangerous precedent because the power of the office will no longer be constrained by the law even including the supreme court of the United States.”

Throughout his address, Biden underscored the gravity of the moment, emphasizing that the only barrier to the president’s authority now lies in the personal restraint of the officeholder. He warned vehemently against the prospect of Trump returning to power, painting a stark picture of the dangers such an outcome could pose.

    Ah yes not understanding the small cultural differences of minority policies being used to pretend the difference between the sides while on the broader spectrum being the exact same. Not to forget when it comes to foreign affairs all brown people rights go out of the window.

    If both sides weren’t the same the Dems would make an effort to save the things you mentioned above. They’re not doing that.

      You’re a really good troll and I’m very familiar with your method. You’ve taken trolling to next-level art form. I’m not even mad, Linkerbaan. Your mo is…chef’s kiss-just beautiful. It’s very subtle, but I see it. Here’s how it usually goes:

      1. Engage by pretending to respond to an argument
      2. Back-and-forth for 2-3 comments where you either: a) intentionally dismiss an argument or b) diminish its consequence (you’ve already started that here I see “minority policies” -haha, nice!)
      3. Ignore counter-points
      4. Provide selective research that fits your narrative
      5. Disappear.

      You do it in every thread, but just subtly enough to keep people busy. It’s…quite impressive. Like I said, not even mad -just impressed. I can’t ascribe a motive to your actions, but…eh you do you.
