ding ding ding, there are no troops in those cities!

Trump owns the agencies, the national guard, the military and supreme court.

Which is why the SC ruled in his favor and there are currently Marines and National Guard enforcing state laws in LA and Chicago.

And when the courts said Trump couldn’t send in Marines and National Guard to enforce state laws did he ignore them and do it anyway? Nope, he fell right in line and obeyed the ruling.

Checks and balances - even with a conservative majority Supreme Court - is what got federal troops out of LA and what has kept them out of my home city of Chicago. So yeah, I still have a little faith in the system.

Fully agree that it’s not enough. But people who run around saying the Trump administration is just doing whatever they want, are not being challenged on it, or are winning those challenges are just reading headlines on social media without really paying attention to the news.

There actually is a lot stopping that. Are there federal troops in LA and Chicago right now? And why or why not?

wtf has any of that stopped him from doing so far?

Have you seriously been paying so little attention to the news that you don’t know that the answer is “a whole lot”?

States run their own elections. “Cancelling the election” is not a thing that ever could or would happen. Nor is a new constitution, as that would require 34 states to even call a convention and then 38 states to ratify one.

Survivorship bias. Most 40-year-old fridges are not working anymore.
