I think that Trump, like any intelligent person, knew that a relatively small out of hand mob with no weapons (flagpoles!) wasn't going to hang Mike Pence and take over the country. It's hard to believe I need to type these words, but here we are.

The founders put in place a minimal federal government to carry out enumerated powers. How is that going?

I think his narcissism wanted a bunch of people to head to the Capitol and protest.

"False" is different than "not the intent of the law." I've often said here that one of the fundamental problems with Lefties like yourself is the phenomenon of unintended consequences. I didn't learn in middle school what is required to enact a new constitution in the US. I suspect you are mistakenly talking about constitutional amendments, which require 2/3 approval in both houses. Which the Republicans don't have, won't have, and even if they did, not everyone in the party supports making Trump the king. As POTUS, the president is the CEO of the country. He should have some oversight into hiring and firing people in his employ, as Schedule F allows. Elon would help to cull the herd. You may like large, lifetime partisan government employees, but I don't. And it doesn't lead to the end of our democracy.

Answer my question.

I answered your question. Answer mine about the mechanism for Trump to enact a new constitution.

I saw what? I saw a mob get out of hand, like I saw three months of mobs getting out of hand during the 2020 Summer of Love. Do you think that maybe those three months of the government doing nothing during unruly mobs maybe gave the 1/6 crowd an idea of what they could do? Of course not, it's totally different! Also, since Trump did it, I presume he was charged with insurrection? Treason? No? Oh, it was obscure laws from the 1800s about cheating the government. Face it, you've drunk the blue koolaid on this.

Yes I read it, and I'll use the second paragraph to answer your question. For Hungary, I took your ultra liberal CAP article (first one) and here's what it says: Help me understand the mechanism for Trump to enact a new constitution in the US.

Well, somebody is succumbing to made up fear mongering. How did he not peacefully transfer power? Was he physically removed on 1/20?

I facetiously took the L, Rustor. Walz said it in the debate, and has enacted laws in Minnesota restricting speech. Reasonable, intelligent people conclude that this is his desire. Kamala brings Grampa Assistant Coach Walz to interviews as her emotional security blanket, so one would think he has her ear. What's the Orban blueprint for Trump to take over the country?
-
So, you think Trump issuing an executive order to be king is more of a threat to democracy than the government censoring speech they don't like?

There was if you are an ASU fan like me$#@!

Vance is 100% correct on both counts. Your DEFCON 1 level TDS won't let you see it, tho.

It's Halloween somewhere.

Trump talk only- no Eagles talk allowed (Steelers talk is OK though)

Half of the country want this person in charge of foreign policy during this period of high global unrest. -
"implore", if you want to correct it. I didn't see anything Meph did that remotely warranted suspension.

Second link in the Google search is a law in Minnesota restricting speech in corporations. https://www.wsj.com/opinion/tim-walz-minnesota-free-speech-employers-labor-unions-religion-politics-2d709299 Most of the rest are about Walz saying there is "no guarantee to free speech on misinformation or hate speech." Scary stuff. I would think a former journalist would see why. I suppose you are going to say that this isn't listed on the Harris website so it isn't a "policy." Take your win, you've earned it.
-
Apparently you didn't look at my link. Shocking.
-
I didn't delete anything. Also "wants to" is different than "can," so congrats on continuing Meph's dumb strawman. Care to answer my true/false question? Comment on my links? Didn't think so.

McCaffrey It's a league of mostly old friends I've been in since the 90s.

In my main league, I have Goff on bye, so I had to start... ... Kirk Cousins Also have Drake London. Off to a good start, finally.

You are as dumb as Meph. I never said Walz was going to "do away" with the first amendment; that was Meph's strawman that you think was a good job debating. I said he was a threat to it, meaning whittling away at our freedoms. True or false: Tim Walz has proposed policies that would restrict free speech? Hint: Here is the link I provided Meph that he probably ignored. I expect you to as well, and respond with some Eeyore blather. https://www.google.com/search?q=tim+walz+on+speech+restrictions&oq=tim+w&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUqCAgAEEUYJxg7MggIABBFGCcYOzIKCAEQLhixAxiABDIGCAIQRRg8MgYIAxBFGDwyBggEEEUYQTIGCAUQRRhBMgYIBhBFGEEyBggHEEUYPNIBCDIwNDZqMGo5qAIAsAIB&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

No worries, ASU won anyway. The Big12 officials will probably have a "gotta minute" meeting to see how they could have twisted more calls in the favor of legacy teams.

Actually, he didn't. I posted links, he said words ending with insults. I can see that you think that's a big win, but I don't expect you to have a high bar.
