For the umpteenth time, Trump does not give a shit about the law. He will say whatever he wants, make up whatever he wants and do whatever he wants. Capitulating in advance to not "give him an excuse" is as productive as voting for Trump so he can't accuse you of rigging the election.
Trump will lie about any evidence. Fox News will rebroadcast his lies and edit videos themselves to support Trump's lies. MAGA will only watch Fox News and blindly believe everything they are told.
Even after their entertainment channel was fined almost $800 million for lying to them.
Sure, but Fox will bury that any time it comes up, "oh, but the liberal courts made us say that because they didn't like the truth™" and then hide under the "we're just entertainment" excuse if questioned about it again.
Until they're forced to have a big disclaimer every couple minutes saying that they arent actually news, or just shut down outright for being so blatantly disingenuous, it'll never stop.
Sometimes I wish news channels could be forced to cite their sources.
While you are not arong that "he" doesn't care, his administration does. They have released several high profile people that they were ordered to release for starters. They are starting to lose more and more court cases. Each loss gives military personnel more ground to declare an order unlawful. The same is true of republicans who don't like him but feel powerless to oppose him.
These are, in the big picture, momentary setbacks, and even then he only complies with these months after they're made, when the damage is already done. Trump is deploying the military against American civilians and laying out the groundwork for declaring martial law (which he has effectively already declared in LA). ICE is arresting people off the street and threatening to arrest political opposition. The fascists are trying, and for the most part succeeding, in creating a situation where they don't need to listen to court orders. No democratic system, and certainly not America's, is capable of surviving when one half of it refuses to recognize that the other half is hopelessly compromised. The system cannot help you for the same reason it couldn't help the Germans or Italians.
You mean slightly more palatable fascists? There is only one word to describe a Republican in 2025: a fascist. Do you expect the fascists to cooperate with you against their great leader?
Wow, I've seen goalposts move before, but those moved so far they aren't even in the same state.
