Oh brother, this spells trouble. Actually, it already has.

[berg80]

The senate just voted to limit Trump's military moves in VZ. Token resistance.

Yeah, and the House just voted to extend ACA subsides. trump will veto both if either get to his desk. But now the 17 R's who voted for the subsides can face their voters and say they tried.

Where is this "international law?" Who passed it? When? Where? How? Please give details.

Here in America, we are not bound by laws that were not passed by lawmakers that we did not vote for. Thus, anything any other country says we MUST do, is by default, bullshit.

What a coincidence that with trump in office a narrative has been created questioning not only the need for fidelity to international law but its existence. Who would have guessed?

 

[airplanemechanic]

Haha, look at the cultists liniing up to repeat the lying talking point they were spoonfed by criminals.

In unison.

Baaaaaaahh

Notice the leftists can't answer the questions quoted. All they do is attack, it's all they have.

It's why they lost in 2024.

Why not answer the questions? If it exists, then the answer to my questions will be simple. I'll ask again:

Answer them, or admit you're making up this "international law" bullshit. Because I can easily post proof that its bullshit:

As for the "best ideas presented to him", I am not kidding when I say white nationalist Stephen Miller is running our country.

Fact.

You need only understand one word when it comes to Trump, acceptance. For the next three years anyway. He's not going anywhere no matter how much you whine.

We are fortunate to have such a moderate forward thinking president. Not like the last Cold War relic.

Trump is going to be impeached in 2027. He very well may be removed.

Acceptance.

When Dick made the "if a prez does it, it means it's not against the law" remark the scope of what he referred to (Watergate) is nothing compared to powers the self appointed King Don is claiming for himself.

The latter is literally saying he decides what is right and wrong, what is lawful and unlawful. HIM! The morally bankrupt, sexual abusing rapist, the convicted criminal, the guy who tried to steal the 2020 election.

True.

Nixon resigned when even the Republicans could not stand his crimes any longer and were about to impeach him.

Trump is going to cross that line one day, too.

Nison did nothing that was impeachable. He trusted and protected his own on a minor reakin and the then Prog Socialist Commies and the media shills jumped on it. The Republicans pulled their Mayberry Act and helped to destroy him. On that they are smarter today at least. Lost in all of this is our nation peaked around 1970.

Someone who thinks like that is the last person in the world who should be in control of the most powerful military force on the planet. Made worse because the normal constraints placed on any prez by Congress and the SC are almost entirely absent thanks to R's abdication of their responsibility to the citizenry and the Constitution.

Correct – Trump is merely a symptom of the disease.

The disease, of course, is a flaccid Republican Congress and Supreme Court happy to have the country ruled by a capricious dictator.

Voters decided that the president's judgment is better than yours, and he has Article 2 Powers, unless restrained by Congress or the SC. Enjoy the next 3-years.

 

[Marener]

This post would be funny but you just actually believe it. In the 10 years of Trump on the world stage you fruit loops have made all kinds of predictions, all kinds of hate about him and nothing you claim is proven true.

We predicted he would use the DoJ to go after his personal enemies and that was true.

Trump Lays Out a Vision of Power Restrained Only by ‘My Own Morality’​

President Trump declared on Wednesday evening that his power as commander in chief is constrained only by his “own morality,” brushing aside international law and other checks on his ability to use military might to strike, invade or coerce nations around the world.

Asked in a wide-ranging interview with The New York Times if there were any limits on his global powers, Mr. Trump said: “Yeah, there is one thing. My own morality. My own mind. It’s the only thing that can stop me.”

“I don’t need international law,” he added. “I’m not looking to hurt people.”

When pressed further about whether his administration needed to abide by international law, Mr. Trump said, “I do.” But he made clear he would be the arbiter when such constraints applied to the United States.

Mr. Trump’s assessment of his own freedom to use any instrument of military, economic or political power to cement American supremacy was the most blunt acknowledgment yet of his worldview. At its core is the concept that national strength, rather than laws, treaties and conventions, should be the deciding factor as powers collide.

This would be shocking even if trump were not immoral. It gives some revealing insight in to how he views the world and his place in it. It hate the term "permission structure," though if ever it fit in describing a construct by which trump is completely unrestrained by laws, treaties and conventions, this is it.

"My own morality. My own mind. It’s the only thing that can stop me.”

There are a number of words to describe that. Megalomania, malignant narcissist, grandiose delusion. Here are a few more. Dangerous, deranged, perilous, deluded.

Here we have another progressive fake expert in psychology. Trumps first year is an astounding success and the Biden excuse makers only have drivel like this to offer.
What do you think of the systemic democrat fraud in Minn and the idiot Walz advocating a literal insurrection?

 

[Papageorgio]

We predicted he would use the DoJ to go after his personal enemies and that was true.

So he is doing exactly what Obama and Biden did, interesting that you can justify one side playing a game but condemn the other.

Every president is constrained only by his own morality in the second term. In the first, it is desire to be re-elected, plus his own morality.

One aspect of fascist governments is they attempt to bend reality. trump wants to violate international law at will, without repercussion, so The Following is being told international law doesn't exist.

AI Overview

International law is the system of rules, norms, and standards governing relations between sovereign states, international organizations, and sometimes individuals, covering areas like human rights, trade, war, and the environment, primarily based on treaties and custom, and enforced through international bodies, political pressure, and national courts, despite lacking a global police force. Its core purpose is to foster peace and order by defining legal obligations for actors on the global stage.
