    The supreme court declared him above the law.

    Therefore the law will not stop him.

    Which means that the only way to stop him… has nothing to do with courts or judges or lawsuits.

    They just don’t fucking get it.

      It’s a case of what Upton Sinclair observed:

      It is difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends on his not understanding it.

    And the Trump administration will just keep appealing until cases get to the grotesquely corrupt and compromised conservative scumbags on the Supreme Court, who will completely ignore law, precedent, the Constitution and even simple logic as necessary in order to give him whatever he wants.

      I have no political experience. But I’m about at the point where I’m ready to start a new political party where I never say a word. I only show up, and give the middle finger. Every debate, every opponent, every issue, every question. You never hear my voice. I just give the middle finger. To everyone. And then get elected president…and give all the world leaders the middle finger.

      My platform promise is “Bacon.”

      No further elaboration or context.
