Summary

It all makes sense when you accept that he works for a foreign adversary.
Yes, and that is why we must doom this presidency.
Write your congsessman if like me you are an american. Make sure they know you are mad. power belongs to congress if they take it. Right now there are some efforts but it is small enough that some leaders feel they can kill it by ignoring it. However if there is pressure that will fail.
If congress stops this fast it will show the system is still working and american creditability will come back fast - but if you don’t the world will move on.
Another strongly-worded letter will show ‘em.
You have to strike while the iron is hot. For the first time Americans are having to confront the fact that maybe his economic plans aren’t good and he doesn’t know what he’s doing.

So yes go ahead and get your magic Internet points with easy, flippant, canned responses. But these things actually can matter.
It’ll have more influence than a million Lemmy comments.

I could have saved you a lot of time and energy if you had just asked me first.
No shit
