- "As @billkristolbulwark.bsky.social noted Monday, Trump could ask his allies in Congress to make an exception—it’s allowed!—for this very special plane. That would be an interesting vote." www.thebulwark.com/p/trump-unqu...
- Sorry America, but you have such a stupid system of government. If a crackpot PM in the Westminster system tried this, they'd be out on their ear before they could even say backbench.
- It's stupid b/c we relied on leaders adhering to norms. And libertarians wonder why there needs to be rules & regs -- because of this BS.
- And I guess Trump is uniquely untethered from norms, from his party, from basic ethics. It's awful to watch America being dragged down this path. Hopefully there will be a reckoning in the future.
- Trump's schtick is giving norms the middle finger which his cult followers love. Congress & WH aides & cabinet members put some brakes on him during his 1st term, but Repubs now are complete greedy asskissers. They won't care until they're voted out of office. It's so awful.May 14, 2025 04:29
