[quote=Anonymous]What people don't get is that they voted for him to have no restrictions. They gave it to him -- executive, legislative, judicial. You'd think SCOTUS would be the last stand to provide some sort of check or balance, but welp. Not so much. And because they voted him back in, there isn't really a way to fix that, either. There just isn't a route to oppose him without burning out and literally making no progress. Not on any big picture level. So Democrats will focus on local issues where they still have some venue and wait it out. Honestly, there isn't anything else effective to do. That means deportations will happen even for people who don't think it may happen to them, but maybe some can be resisted or delayed long enough to make a difference. Not most, but maybe some. Palestine is just going to have to deal with Trump and Netanyahu now. I don't know where that goes, but I don't think external checks or balances apply to it anymore. Ukraine will have to deal with Trump and Putin. Those aren't things Democrats have levers for anymore -- they just sawed them off in this election, so we have to acknowledge that. Maybe things will be different in 2 years, or maybe 4 years. We'll see. [/quote]
