But I really don't think Reagan could have drafted a tweet, even an unhinged and barely-coherent one, for a lot of the back half of his presidency.

awesmoe posted:you're delusional dude. you're way way the gently caress off the deep end. Kelly is managing Trump the way a nanny manages a toddler, not the way any other white house chief of staff has ever operated. See, e.g., quote:If Mr. Kelly knows he cannot always control access, he is intent on at least knowing who is peddling what to his boss. He reserves the right to listen to calls coming to the president through the White House switchboard. To some callers, Mr. Kelly politely promises to forward messages. On calls he cannot monitor personally, Mr. Kelly or a deputy will usually double-back to debrief the caller on any promises the president may have made in unguarded moments. https://www.nytimes.com/2017/12/09/us/politics/donald-trump-president.html Most nine year olds have more freedom than Kelly is allowing Trump.

I'm glad we got a new thread title because I have no idea what the last one was supposed to mean, nor why it remained the thread title for so long. As for the thread itself, I mean it has its moments. It gives all the poo poo posters a place to argue about rockets or whatever I guess.

Sup goons, nice new thread It's been a true honor typing along side all of you, it's surely going to be sad when we are all incinerated. Thing is, I don't even think it'd be a nuke from NK doing it. Donny would press the button but he'd accidentally hit it on the P2 controller instead of P1 and everyone knows NK is P2 which means, gently caress, we get nuked

Assuming America survives the Trump Presidency, what laws can be implemented to prevent this situation occurring again? Also, the 25th Amendment seems to rely upon the President sending a letter that he cant discharge his duties - which I cant see Trump ever doing. He would never admit that. Is that reading correct, or can someone else write the letter for him. My button is bigger than yours... I mean, Jesus, America. You really lived down to the stereotype.

Moreau posted:Assuming America survives the Trump Presidency, what laws can be implemented to prevent this situation occurring again? Keep reading, the relevant section in the 25th amendment is section 4. The VP and a majority of the cabinet can strip him of power. If the president appeals, then congress votes. As for how to keep this from happening again, assuming we can't be trusted to not elect an insane maniac again, it would require a constitutional amendment. The office of the president is vastly powerful due to the constitution, so laws wont help. Up to this point, we presumed we would never elect an insane sociopath with Alzheimer's.

Moreau posted:Assuming America survives the Trump Presidency, what laws can be implemented to prevent this situation occurring again? Apart from various voting reforms, the main thing is we need to remove the ability of the President to fire senate-confirmed appointees to the department of Justice, such as Comey; they need to be ten year appointments only revocable via two-thirds congressional impeachment. We've twice now had this crisis where the president does something criminal and then tries to interfere with the investigation.

Is that reading correct, or can someone else write the letter for him. There are 2 paths to end a presidency under the 25th- the voluntary one, and the Cabinet informing Congress that they feel the President should be removed without his consent.

 if you think Trump is gonna get 25th Amendment’d. Not by this VP, this cabinet, and this congress. The death cult will lock arms and sing joyfully as the ground rushes upward to meet them in their freefall.
