Well the Supreme Court has been ruling that absolutely no one has claims to damages from actions by the President.

The Supreme Court is telling Trump to ask for forgiveness instead of permission, because these is no one to demant forgiveness.

We live in a new country. One where the Supreme Court is giving their party an upperhand in shaping. Ad Hoc, no one can say Trump is harming them because the Supreme Court believes the President is infallible in that it would actively harm the institution to allow anything to abridge their authority. The idea that in the midst of calamity the President must have the utmost authority or else domestic instigators could thwart the President's ambition to save the country. And if it is a Democratic President then it is the government's job to stop them from acting. The Supreme Court, without saying it, is saying that the Democrats are the enemy of their forming nation and as a result they have no rights in the eye of the Federal Government.

Sad part is that their new country won’t come together because their entire regime is crumbling. So they are wasting time on this downfall to just milk the gifts.

Edit for conclusion.

It's obvious, the closer we get to that glorious day, that they have no answer after Orange Foolius kicks the bucket. He hasn't let them sniff a succession plan due to his extreme narcissism and seems to be genuinely baffled by his own mortality. It's going to be wild how fast this all collapses after the final thrust from McDonald's finishes the job

they don't need a successor, because by the time old mc donald dies he will have accomplished their goal. The goal being to expand the powers of the executive branch and diminish the powers of the other two branches and elections so much so that the entrenched republicans can install whoever they want as their real leader. It's going to be wild when someone completely unknown by the public just gets sat up on the throne using all of Trumps actions as historical precedent.

You really need to look into the butterfly revolution. These people are behind Project 2025 just as much as Heritage Foundation is. Palantir is part of it all. They intend to usurp the Constitution in favor of corporate city-states akin to company towns using local crypto as company scrip. They'll put all the undesirables (read: dissenters, non-whites, queer folk, and the disabled) into varying forms of servitude, and that's not speculative - VP Bowman endorsed "Unhumans" in which the central argument is that anyone left of conservative doesn't deserve human rights or legal protections.

They've been setting up a coup for 50 years. They're not going to let it all fall apart just because their vessel of corruption died. That's the entire point of having Peter Thiel's puppet as VP.

This idea would have gotten traction with the collapse of the Soviet Union. What did it collapse into? A state that people, like Reaganites, would aspire to create. Putin owns not the people of Russia, they volunteer that due to the futility of resistance, but he owns the Russian market. You want to do business in Russia? Putin needs his secret cut so that you can have access to his market. It mobster stuff but on a national scale. A new doctrine.

The thing that held what we had together were the alliances and free-ish trade deals between the Allied Nations and adopters of their doctrine after WWII. Which largely left Russia/Soviet Union out. They persisted and remained stable, until they weren't, then stable again, without the people of Russia hardly getting involved, or the resistance that occurred internally was dominated. With all power and access to wealth ultimately tied to one person and a population that was on the brink of nuclear apocalypse and saw no bang thinking, "meh, whatever, let me know when the bombs drop." Then what is the point to having a resistence if the master is letting out a helping hand for compliance anyway.

Trump dominated the US through dominating the media and he did so by licensing the method that Russians have developed to maintain their status quo. Because Trump was shitting himself at the idea of nuclear apocalypse too. All Americans at that time were. And so were the Russians that just let Putin happen.

Trump is a franchisee of the Putin Doctrine. That is all. And it isn't a nefarious plot to extort him either. Trump sees the same kind of mark Putin did. We could be dominated just like Russia because of the shared Cold War experience of the Baby Boomers.

But that time is running out. Russia got in real early. America is late to the trend. The Baby Boomers only have 15-25 years left and each year until the end of their mortality tables the population of marks go down. Their time is running out to use this ploy. Because the audience that will readily accept it is getting too old. That is why Trump is moving so quickly.

Gen X is the biggest Trump supporters, sorry to break it to you friend

I wish this was one of those conspiracy theories that wasn't true.
