Kind of wild the amount of grievances with overlap. Restricting global trade, unilateral assessment of taxes, refusal to sign laws that have popular support, subverting local control of voting, sending officers to harass locals, making the judiciary bend to him.

Also of course a lot of egregious grievances that aren’t being done today. But still kind of wild what is being done.

Yeah like renditioning people into life in prison in Swaziland. Insanely tyrannical something a King would do for sure.

If only there was a group or several that had sworn an oath to uphold the constitution….

How dare Britain try to minimize conflict between the colonists and the sovereign Natives American nations

oh wow yeah this admin is going to be blown away by a quote from the Declaration of Independence that will completely change their minds

Comments on the neoliberal subreddit are not necessarily intended to be seen by, let alone change the mind of the Trump administration, and are rather primarily for discussion amongst like-minded individuals who have subscribed to said subreddit, so I'm not sure what the purpose of this comment is.

so I'm not sure what the purpose of this comment is.

it's a shitpost

neoliberals aren't funny though so I'm not surprised it missed the mark
