Vote but I think it would be absolutely brilliant if Biden uses the immunity to arrest and remove every single person trying to strip our country away. Lock up every last one, including any corrupt judges.
He's not doing this and people need to stop wish-casting that he would in order to cope with the party's refusal to oppose Republican policy.
If Democrats follow that playbook it only legitimizes it, giving a future Republican administration the green light to do it as well.
The correct response is what we're seeing from Biden today. Put it down on paper and get it on record who really supports the rule of law
I 100% agree in spirit. However...
One of the many problems with American politics is that the Republicans do not need legitimacy or a green light. They'll fucking do it anyway. They'll also cry foul if they catch a whiff of a democrat thinking about doing it. Or they'll just accuse a democrat of doing it and they'll just use that as justification for doing it first.
They know their policies are wildly unpopular and that they won't even be able to maintain power by illegitimate minority rule, which they have been doing for decades now.
It's grab power now or regroup and accept that they've lost the culture war. They are not going to go quietly, as recent events and Project 2025 has made crystal clear.
You get it.
I’m still voting for Biden. He’s still my favorite write-in candidate for November. Make wish-casting great again. /s
This isn't funny. Don't perpetuate this, even as an /s
Vote for the nominated Democratic candidate, against trump. Period.
Talk about wish-casting.
If I understood the ruling correctly, that "immunity" is the supreme court saying the president is immune for "official acts" - and they get to decide what those are. This is not immunity for Biden, it's a fascist coup happening in slow motion.
Then grab the coup by the horns and put it down like diseased cattle.
