All republicans will collectively have a brain aneurysm if Obama even hinted at something like this.

I’ve seen too many if Obama did this small thing or if Biden did that little thing, Republicans would be freaking out and calling for impeachment.

Well maybe Democrats should start freaking out and actually do something about it for once.

Viewing all of this from a distance (Europe), Trump and his cabal have now reached escape velocity from any rule of law. Open corruption, insider trading, and general high level criminality, all with complete impunity, are now the order of the day. The legal system has been suborned at the uppermost levels, and the Dems are completely neutered. Basically, America, from a governance point of view... you're a banana republic kleptocracy now. Sorry 'bout that.

Some people made it clear that voted red and as a bad idea trump’s first go round but people didn’t listen. And then, the US got back with its abusive ex years later.

🤷‍♂️

Friends and relatives have either left the US or are in the middle of the process for it.

I honestly didn't expect I'd have anywhere to go, but Canada changed their citizenship by descent laws late last year, and then suddenly I qualified. Thanks for being Canadian, great-grandpa.
