The 2024 Presidential Race Thread

[newfie]

Maybe you should answer this ? Since Biden/Harris made it ok to use the military on civilians.

WEAPONIZATION: With just months left in office, the Biden-Harris regime quietly updated a 17-year-old Bush-era directive prohibiting the assassination of Americans. The regime has now removed key language from DoD Directive 5240.01 that explicitly barred such acts, paving the way for the government to target U.S. citizens under "special circumstances."

This change marks a dangerous shift, where Americans could be assassinated both at home and abroad, all under the guise of protecting democracy. The updated directive strips away crucial protections, setting a perilous precedent and raising serious concerns about unchecked government power. Governor Glenn Youngkin is among those sounding the alarm

I'm trying to avoid hyperbole from both sides.
there is a big difference between removing redundant language covered by criminal law and authorizing public officials to execute citizens.

 

[Next Day Err]

A president can do that to US citizens now?

Do we want to elect him and find out the answer?

 

[newfie]

He likes dictators and wishes he could do whatever he wants. But when Democrats are talking about needing to stop him from doing things like kicking Jack Smith out of the country, what are they actually talking about stopping him from doing?

Trump cant help himself and feeds the hysteria. He gives a 1000 word answer to a question and then his opponents cherry pick 10 of them to paint the narrative they want to sell against him.

yes please. cant take four years of the laughing hyena

Oops, deportation. hahah

You're saying that if Trump is elected, US presidents might suddenly have the power to deport US citizens?

 

[Next Day Err]

You're saying that if Trump is elected, US presidents might suddenly have the power to deport US citizens?

U.S. presidents suddenly, apparently, had the power to direct a mob to the Capitol while the Congress was preparing to certify a vote and then watch the violence from the Oval Office dining room while sipping Diet Coke and avoid any accountable thus far.

Who's going to stop him?

Nancy Pelosi has never been the president.

 

[Next Day Err]

Nancy Pelosi has never been the president.

Always an attempt to absolve him of any responsibility.

Trump failed the country that day.

J6 Trumpees are going to help Trump deport US citizens to Guantanamo Bay?

 

[Next Day Err]

Trump tells us what he’s gonna do. He told us the J6 protests would be wild. It was wild. He’s told us he would like to see the U.S. Constitution terminated if it stands in his way. He wanted to break the law over and over and people in his cabinet coaxed him down from the edge. Are we really gonna count on those people to moderate him the next time?

He’s power mad.

Might he have actually been able to do things like deport US citizens to Guantanamo during his first term if people hadn't been in place to steer him away from his worst inclinations?

I really don't like Trump and I guess I'm trying to find real reasons that I should instead vote for what would obviously be a leftist Harris/Walz administration.

So you think Trump should have used the military on American citizens. Interesting.

He did, I agree he should've done more, absolutely.

He didn't cause it, absolutely.

 

[DriveInDriveOut]

Has nothing to do with far right, everything to do with the law.

How many local elections in Democrat controlled districts potentially could be overturned by a rush of late ballots? "How many votes we need"(? ) comes to mind.

Vote by mail? Vote early with the understanding that your vote may not be counted. Election day is the cut off, plain and simple. This fact has zero to do with any political party affiliation.

Democrat heads explode when a judge explains the meaning of election day.

As a general rule, the men who try to tear down statues are inferior to the men commemorated in the statues.

[Pullman Brown]

Like threatening american citizens with job loss and financial ruin with a vaccine mandate?

If it weren’t for the Supreme Court some of us wouldn’t have jobs!

Some of these issues is we have an elected government and army of bureaucrats reading and interpreting a rival constitution post 1960’s versus the original- and the incompatibility has worsened as the civil rights regime has been built out.

Do we want to elect him and find out the answer?

It appears so
