What part am I supposed to disagree with? I never pardoned a gang of violent felons who attacked the police or our democratic process, btw. And I have no felony convictions, unlike some.

I didn’t. But it is true that he became a symbol for many who believe committing a petty crime shouldn’t get you murdered by the police. I believe that too. You?

Re: The Atlantic: Hitler used tariffs to "liberate" Germany
Hitler ordered 145% tariffs on Chinese goods, fooling the Germans into thinking China was paying, but it was a tax on the middle class.

Simply sycophants
The incoherence of the so-called "conservative philosophers" of the Tug is well illustrated by the fact that the actual philosophers of the conservative movement abhor their emperor and love interest. A report on the recent Cato Institute gathering:
“We will always oppose when a policy is moving in a direction that contradicts these principles,” Goettler said. “When the President disappears people without due process, or enacts extra-legal tariffs that threaten business and prosperity around the world, or targets individual law firms for retribution and calls into great danger to the rule of law, we’ll stick to our principles, speak out, push back, and oppose it.”
The free-market fanboys and libertarian aficionados have spent almost a half century decrying the exact meddling that Trump is now engaging in. A hands-off-the-market approach has been sacrosanct for these wonks. Lost on no one was the fact that Koch was in town—a rare visit, really—to accept the 2025 Milton Friedman Prize for Advancing Liberty, named in honor of the economist who was pretty strident in his opposition to tariffs.

This guy is so brainwashed/stupid that he can’t process factual information that blows up his opinion.

Re: Simply sycophants
You mean like biden defying the Supreme Court? BO breaking our laws and repeatedly lying to Americans about their healthcare and doctors? You mean that kind of "chilling"? You must have been fucking freezing 12 out of the last 16 years!
The reality is you could give a shit if a rat does it to innocent Americans. This is nothing but a political hammer to you. You have repeatedly voted for dem presidents who were as corrupt as any in our history but now you are outraged!!!!!!

Re: Simply sycophants
Also, not a counter-argument. Insulting me and presenting a variety of related news, some of which is inflammatory, true, doesn't change that Trump willfully has blown off SCOTUS's orders. What that means to those of us who aren't idiots is chilling. It means he thinks HE is authorized to interpret the law.
