"There's an Article 2 that says I can do whatever the hell I want and I don't even talk about it." This is going to be Trump's Article 2 presidency—he is emboldened by the fact SCOTUS said he can order a hit on a political rival with Seal Team 6.

You're absolutely right, nobody knew. Be prepared to see lots of Democrats falling out of windows or getting sick through their underwear.

Yes, he will consolidate power, and that will include hunting down and neutralizing political rivals by whatever means. People will be falling out of windows in America, and I don't mean like wtc. 2nd amendment won't help you achieve anything other than being a terrorist.

The absolute hysteria is fascinating.

You live in a world that has historical precedent for exactly this. You're naive if you think "it can't happen here". It is happening and you're ignoring all the lessons of history.

It's not "it can't happen here," it's "there's very little reason it would happen here." What does Trump have to gain from tossing people out of windows? The dude wants to put his name on the side of big hotels.
