They already do this through things like student debt elimination and promises of UBI etc


I am talking a cash deal. You give me a vote and you get cash. And I will throw in lunch.

1. It takes Constitutional Amendment change to change the qualifications for the Presidency;
2. It takes Constitutional Amendment to abolish the SCOTUS and highly unlikely;
3. The SCOTUS just ruled in "Fischer" "Obstruction" charge cannot be used for J6 protesters.

You are shit out of luck.

Ok, what’s stopping Biden from assassinating Trump as an official act?


Nothing.

He can go ahead and eliminate ALL student debt while he is at it.


Any attempt to eliminate debt like that would have an immediate hold by the courts. Honestly it’s like none of you understand basic checks and balances.

As long as it is permitted then I am sure we can come up with donations to cover it. I will sponsor a few voters!

The DOJ has always been consulted to determine if a presidents actions are lawful or not. Remember when Obama went back and forth with his DOJ about what he could legally do about the Dreamers?


That's not the point. The DOJ has traditionally been independent from the White House when making criminal prosecution decisions - it's one of our democratic norms followed by Presidents of both parties. That is now gone. Kaput.

The President can now order DOJ to investigate/prosecute whoever he likes, with no fear of prosecution. You might to read what Nixon did - the Supreme Court now says that's OK.

The Supreme Court isn't in charge of the Attorney General or the DOJ. The AG can reaffirm independence from the executive office.

Also, the second paragraph in that section should be read in light of the first section. Had DOJ sent out the letter regarding election fraud, then that would be an unofficial act with merely-presumptive non-absolute immunity.


And get fired and be replaced by a toady. See, e.g., Jeff Clark

The SCOTUS ruling only impacted like 5% of those charged, who still have other charges pending that will be heard and adjudicated.

Norms are done in the United States. If it's not a federal law with very explicit text, it's fair game.

Hopefully the Democrats in power wake up to that reality.

The problem with the Constitution is that it was written by men who believed that people would always deal in good faith.


It was written by people who were looking at George Washington - who rejected a monarchy - as their first President.
