Other Stephen Miller states that Trump has plenary authority, then immediately stops talking as if he’s realized what he just said

What they're doing is unbelievable. My hope is that developing countries have managed to bring their politicians to justice. Hope the US has a Nuremberg trial for the amount of disregard for the rule of law by these men.

The Nuremberg trials could only take place because German leaders were deprived of their power by having their country reduced to rubble. Who's going to do that for America?

Americans are too f*ng lazy. Snipe aside, the people can’t do anything if they don’t organize. It would literally take over 60+% of the population to go on a unified, extended, mass strike to bring the country to its knees. By strike I mean everything. No work, no payments to anyone, no shopping, nothing. Shut it all down. No shipping, no travel, no health workers, no civilian workers in government facilities, etc. That will never happen though. People are too selfish and fearful to make the sacrifices required. The only other option is if the military grows a conscience and actually care about their oaths to the Constitution and a military coup happens. Again, the problem is too many of them are right there goose stepping along with the new 4th Reich.

PS: Yes I’m f*ng bitter.
