    Every accusation is projection, as is status quo.

    I suspect this is going to cause a whole new demographic to become up in arms and join the active protest fray.

      This is the plan: make groups angry one at a time. Start sending the “worst” ones to El Salvador when they inevitably protest

      Cancel the midterm elections because of martial law that will be needed.

      Send everyone else they don’t like to the involuntary human experimentation camps

      Burn the constitution.

      Form the trump states of America

        In British English that would be the Fart States of America.

        And if we are going to talk about fart states, I think it’s been a state of uncontrollable sharting for a while now.

    Progress!

    He’s asking Congress to do it instead of overreaching his executive powers by issuing an executive order.

    This timeline sucks…
