I hope I’m right and you’re wrong for the sake of our democracy. I hope it lasts more than 250 years

You underestimate the reason we have separation of powers. If Trump wanted to get rid of term limits he would need 2/3 votes from both houses which he doesn’t have and 38 states need to ratify. This also includes with any constitutional change. There’s red tape for a treason

They can’t break it though. I mean anything he does deemed unconstitutional can be challenged by any appeals court judge that can strike it down. He needs 2/3 congress approval which he doesn’t have the votes for constitutional changes and changes to the exec branch. Lots of changes are complicated. Even removing the ACA.

Remembered day one in 2017 he had that travel ban? A judge struck it down and they appealed and lost. He doesn’t have a magic wand…

So technically yes and no. He cant just say he wants to get rid of the fbi or remove term limits at will. Study how the Goverment works

Right but a lot of 2025 restructuring is limited by the 3 branches of goverment. You can’t just get rid of the FBI so easily. You can’t deport illegals on a massive scale so easily. He has big promises but he won’t be able to do nearly as much. Even with loyalists there is a reason why our founders made certain overhauls difficult. Because of people like him…

For some reason I missed that part of his policy. I don’t agree with that at all and recind my support for him.

There’s two types of Libertarians. The right leaning RFK Libertarians and the left leaning Chase Oliver libertarians. I’m not using chase as a defense for being libertarian I just like his policies over RFK. It’s that simple. Are you done?

Okay that’s your opinion then. Doesn’t mean I ageee with all of his policies. Shit, people literally voted for Trump because they say TRUMP=lower prices HARISS=Higher prices. And ignored everything else. I’m upset as well that Trump is back The White House. If anything Dems should be mad at Joe Biden for not deciding not to run for reelection before the primaries.
