Our founding fathers feared the possibility of a Donald Trump in the future.

Our founding fathers feared the possibility of a Donald Trump in the future.

Yeah, they did everything they could, for their time. They saw this as a distinct possibility. They knew world history.

Nevertheless, they still had to place a great deal of trust in We The People, and we've failed them, miserably.

Let's get it right. The Founders expected the Congress to be the strongest branch, then the Executive, and then Judicial.

They had no idea a Marbury v. Madison was in the future.

Our Founders did not expect political parties to arise. They were sorely disappointed when parties spawned immediately.

But as far as the Executive, yes. They intended the Executive to be the weakest branch, precisely because every other nation on Earth had monarchs/Emperors/Grand Poobahs and it wasn't working well.

Everyone has to realize that governments are never designed to protect the poor and be your best friend. Governments are there as a barrier to keep the poor from eating the rich. Has been for thousands of years. Everyone is so caught up in the propaganda, the theory, and the emotions, and never consider obvious reality.

 

[jacksonlamb]

The obvious reality is the poor here have the vote, and many politicians play to that.

 

[MostBoringManInTheWorld]

Nothing personal, Dud but memes seem to be the fallback for low IQ posters...just saying...

You need to tell many of your friends on your side that.

The GOP is different?

Both parties are corrupt to the bone.

Sure, there is a difference.

One party, or at least Trump, seemed to have addressed the immigration crisis and also does not support mutilating the genitals of children as they are sacrificed to the gender cult gods nor do they assassinate their political rivals

I also like the fact that Trump has gone after the drug cartels that murder about 200 Americans a day. He is the first to do that.

So, yea, they are not the same.

He broke the law and the idea of what is America in trying to fix immigration.

That and killing drug cartels do not make up for him being a shit poor President.

I probably did tell you to ** off. I tell all racists to ** off no matter who is President.

I do the same with retards. So **** off.

Our founding fathers feared the possibility of a Donald Trump in the future.

George Washington warned against excessive political partisanship and the rise of individuals who could manipulate divisions for personal power.
George was brilliant. What he predicted is happening now.
Thomas Jefferson feared the emergence of an elected monarchy. He believed constant vigilance was necessary to preserve liberty and worried about executive overreach.
Sound familiar
James Madison argued that people are vulnerable to factions and ambitious leaders. In Federalist No. 47 and No. 51, he emphasized separation of powers and checks and balances to prevent tyranny.
Trump is at war with the seperation of power and checks and balances to his power

Benjamin Franklin famously responded after the Constitutional Convention that Americans had created “a republic, if you can keep it,” reflecting concern that democratic systems can decay into authoritarianism.

History is filled with authoritarian takeovers: America’s Founders hoped to prevent them

Americans who would accept dictatorship do not know history and their own government. The scourge of dictatorship must never stain America.

You were shitting on them with the slave issue and now they are geniuses. Soon we will have AI and Artificial Life Forms to be our slaves. Hopefully they do not have an insurrection. They are close to being sentient now or to make their own decisions.

What we need is another round of NO KINGS temper tantrums.

There are people who believe we can stop having people impoverished. That is not true. We can, however, reduce the number of the poor. The system is designed to stop that from happening.

I think the neo-leftists are cooling it to make a better impression for the midterms. Anyopne notice they no longer discuss all their anti-ICE, pro-immigration BS anymore? They stopped calling Trump a fascist, they don't shove their LGBT-WTF BS down our throats anymore. I think they know they are going to lose more seats in the midterms. When that happens you can bet on the neo-leftists taking their insanity to all new levels. But it won't last long, as the funding for the DNC will completely dry up as their donors realize they are now completely worthless. Today the dumocraps are on life support, in 6 months the DNC will have to pull the plug.

 

[jacksonlamb]

Dems will pick up both houses of Congress.

Not as many in the House but enough to control it.

They will clean up in the Senate. No more MAGAt judges.

What a neat story.

I hear he's the Anti-Christ now too, so our founding father's founding father's worried about Donald as well.

 

[jacksonlamb]

DJT is certainly a mode for today's anti-Christs.

You betcha, wink, as Palin would do.

Absolutely. If you believe in America, you should be too.
MAGA is concerned about what is best for Trump, not the nation. Cult like.

 

[Doc7505]

And just think, if you returned the Executive Branch to the weakest of branches, would half the country want to secede every Presidential election?

No.

The collectivist subversion of power to the Executive is the problem and what is dividing the country, not Trump.

Having all that power dangling for tyrants and sociopaths to want to grab is the only possible outcome.

But by all means, return to focusing all your efforts on impeaching him after the midterms or blowing his head off again.

Enjoy.

Indeed, we had a weak executive between the years of 2021 to 2024 and look at the results, a puppet presidency, inflation, two wars, supply side shortages, a weak military, and DEI.

Your post tells us exactly who you are.
You believe "separation of powers and checks and balances to prevent tyranny" is the same as slavery.

What a great American.
