I found this reporting more than a little ironic.

4 years. Then we have another election.

When you have your head as far up your ass as you do, posts like that come across more like desperation than what you were going for, condescension.

Let's get specific. Is it your belief that once a prez is elected his responsibility to act with the consent of the governed ends? That he is no longer called upon to respect the wishes of the vast majority of the electorate? Do you understand the difference between the power to impose your will and the authority to do so? Or do you favor the more trumpian, caveman approach?

Once the president is in office, he is to use his judgement as to what he should do, not track opinion polls and do what the majority wants.

The people have other representatives, such as senators or representatives that they can communicate with, and ask them to try to "check" the power of the President.

But, once the consent is given, barring extreme circumstances, it is given for the duration of his term.


Try to be less ignorant.

GFY.

Totally different reasons

Totally different reasons

AND completely irrelevant.


My point was how vulnerable Venezuala was to being blockaded.

Hawaii, is of course, also vulnerable to that, if anyone could do that to them/us.


That "point" means nothing in the context of this issue.

It does not contradict my point. At all, in anyway.
