Laws are only useful if they're enforced
If you break the law and nobody enforces it, did you really break the law?
If you can't enforce it, it's not a law.
Thanks, legal experts. Now who can or will punish him? The judiciary he stacked? The Law he disregards and dismantles? A feckless Congress? Please. That court order is notarized toilet paper.
I'm other news water is wet
Hi, other news.
I'm news at seven but I don't know what time it is.
If he broke the law then that means he's going to prison right?
He's going to be physically removed from office and put in a prison cell right?
We gotta get the dems back in there so they can follow the law and not do shit until they "lose" to the next fascist. \s \s \s
And what about it? So you think Congress will do anything about it? That the courts would do anything about it? Democrats are powerless to do anything about it, not like I would expect them to put up any fight to begin with. The rest of America going to do crap about it? Do you think the farmers who voted to getting fucked by this will do anything about it?
My guess would be no. Let the farmers who voted for it find out.
