"They slipped in a little clause letting them escape ever having to debate or vote on Trump's tariffs," said one Democratic critic. "Isn't that clever?"

I just don’t get it. They are literally giving away the power they have to someone who has demonstrated he is planning to destroy the county in which they live.
There is ZERO upside to them doing this…
Christian Dominionism: Look it up.
They share his desire to destroy the country.
Professional politicians are looking forward to the day when they can come out from under the shadow of dark money and influence peddling and financial reports and openly live as lords of the corporate/kleptocratic new world order.
In a nation absolutely awash in high-powered weaponry? They are absolutely delusional if they think this will go the way they think it will.
Seems like most of the people who hoard such weapons want to join them and be part of the largest group of thugs.
You do know that the elite Republicans can't stand their poorer base, don't you? They just used them to gain power, however they may employ some of the worst of the worst as personal thugs - hint, they already do this.

The minority of vocal moronic ones, yes.
The quiet ones who have hidden from public view what they have and how much? Not so much.
Since we're not ammosexuals, we're better trained. No point in having a hundred guns you're barely familiar with and can't maintain.
There are a ridiculous number of functional militaries in America and most of them bow to corporate interests.

Now imagine the county collapsed and the US dollar no longer the reserve currency. All these tech bros with billions of nothing sitting in their bunkers will be ripe for the taking. Candy ass nerds and stock brokers are not hard asses no matter what MMA classes they walk through.
and most people who think they are hard asses aren't hard asses either. the country isn't collapsing either. it's just relinquishing its role of being the leading superpower and establishing techfeudalism.
So far it looks like armed Muricans are docile as lambs
armed Muricans are docile as lambs
Lambs are a hell of a lot smarter though.
They have the same goals. Doing it this way, they get their objectives met without getting their own hands dirty.
