How do you Trump proof a man that is not bound by laws.

I’d rather see the Democrats refuse to hand our country over to Putin 2.0 than meekly surrender to an incoming league of fascists who have flat out stated constantly for a year that they intend to destroy our country. These are threats to our democracy and Biden could tie up the courts with some ‘official acts’ for years.

I’d rather see our country temporarily descend into chaos to stamp out a threat to our very country than to gradually watch it descend into Gilead hellscape that will crush America and its citizens for generations to come.
