Last week’s executive order targeting Perkins Coie represented an unprecedented abuse of executive power to punish lawyers for representing political opponents. The court’s swift rejection made clear just how far beyond constitutional bounds Trump had stepped. But rather than accept those bounds, Trump has decided to test just how many law firms he can threaten before someone stops him.
Good times.
Okay, so how do we stop him?
Make a nationwide protest where everyone bangs their pots outside every night until this madness stops
Step 1 - You’re Luigi
Step 2 - Luigi does his magic
Step 3 - The world breathes a sigh of relief
I’m pretty sure we can’t rely on one guy to exercise his 2A, the constitution starts with ‘We the people’, and should be read as ‘You’re Luigi’ in this context.
Your’s is better than mine. Gonna change it rn.
Thanks!
What’s the civic process for replacing senators and representatives who fail to impeach him?
(Please stop saying Luigi. We need to talk about actual civic processes that can work, instead of criminal fantasies.)
Careful. The Dems are engaging civic processes now, and be cause they don’t have an orange clown gesticulating and slurring proclamations onscreen, the unwashed masses think nothing is happening.
Because they also keep capitulating on actual votes. Both of my states supposedly Dem senators voted for the recent CR (Schumer and Gillibrand). Unfortunately NY doesn’t have a recall process.
It’s only a crime if the revolution fails.
There really isn’t a legally defined way. Shaming and pressuring resignations are probably the best way that is legally unambiguous, but arguments could be made for things like blockading or other means of coercion
Mass national protests. Stop showing up for work. Stop doing capitalisms business. Just make normal life an impossible thing. Peacefully. That’s what we can do as a civic process.
Non-Luigi answer? 2nd amendment
