    He seems to put active effort into not understanding how things work. It’s impressive

      Have you seen the state of reality recently?

      “how things work” is, and always has been a suggestion. It used to be enforced, and recently enforcement has been entirely up to the opinions and personal beliefs of the enforcers. If there ever is an issue with this selective enforcement, there is unlimited wealth shielding selective enforcers from consequences.

      Trump personally may not be technically able to do anything as president elect for Ukraine support, but multiple cogs in government may suspiciously stop working preventing anything from getting done.

      Democrats believe in “how things are done” vs Republicans who believe “who is going to stop us when we’re in power”

      If you think you’re going to stop a Republican from doing what they want by pointing to pieces of paper, you haven’t been paying attention to the last decade.

    “You know, I called Putin - I really did - on my pink Barbie phone, you ever seen that? Old timey thing, it’s got this rotary. So I lie there and talk to him, twiddle the phone chord, which is actually non functional, and I’m just lying there, kicking my legs, joking and talking and flirting - anyway, it was a great time.”

    It really should be easy enough to off this sack of shit. Actually it’d be hilarious if it was done in a real stupidly convoluted way to make it look as if it was some deep state type operation. Really rile up the cockroaches that support this pile of excrement so they can be stamped on.
