Founders, repeatedly: so just to reiterate, and I cannot stress this enough, the president is absolutely not a king and can be removed, charged, or even executed if they start to do king things (250 years later) Alito: getting a lot of king vibes from this document

It turns out that being an actual good guy is more mundane and conflicted than being an Action Hero. But it’s better to do the work than wait for your one moment in the spotlight.

you left out the fifth scenario
President Donald Trump died when he hit a golf ball at a tree and it bounced back and bonked him in the nuts and then the tree fell and squashed him flat and his body hat to be peeled off the fairway

I think the thing we are all in denial about when it comes to the One Cool Trick to win elections forever is that low info swing voters are basically incomprehensible eldritch horrors to politically engaged people. There’s no understanding them and you’ll go mad trying.

My three-year-old was watching CNN when he turned to me gravely and asked “Daddy, why is the nice orange man firing the nice wine lady?” And when I told him “Because she became too woke to protect the reflecting pools,” he started crying.

Having an in person international or national event in America? Are you weighing factors like lodging and transport? Cool stuff to do? Here's a map to consider if any of your attendees may possibly, even remotely be LGBTQIA. And you care about them.

Amnesty International put out a major report documenting the influence of UK based anti trans gender critical organizations and their funding. Within hours, GC groups threatened defamation lawsuits and Amnesty was forced to pull it down. Proving the point they're anti rights. Anyways, here it is.
