      Obviously just locker room talk. People are just taking his comments about ending democracy and becoming a dictator on day one out of context. He’s speaking metaphorically.

      –“Centrists” still voting for Trump, probably

      I’d like to believe that congress would never allow him to change the constitution and subvert due process, but you just never know what might happen with this guy.

          Andrew Jackson did something similar during his own presidency, but it was the supreme court he told to fuck off.

          Essentially, he wanted to relocate all the native Americans west of the Mississippi river. Well, the native Americans did what every other American does and they sued the U.S. Government. When the court ruled in favor of the Indians, Andy Jackson basically said, “fuck you, I’m gonna do it anyways.”
