It's only one guy putting his name down on a piece of legislation right now, but don't for a second think this hasn't been on the radar of every Republican organization for awhile now. Think tanks, and the billionaires maintaining them, have been going into loving over drive on this one and what they could do with a constitutional convention entirely under one party control.

Democrats should float an amendment that requires presidential candidates to release all their tax returns, and enforces a strict divestment from their businesses if elected. Then absolutely hammer anyone who tries to make excuses.

Anyone who is enough of a coward to try an block it looks really bad going into midterms. 4. This is something that should have existed anyway because apparently Americans are just that stupid.

Casimir Radon posted:1. You can't get an amendment going that fast. I mean voters didn't care enough not to vote for Trump, why would they get mad enough at their Congressman for blocking an amendment for it to matter? Hell, they only need 34% against in one house, safe seats probably get you there.

Combination of culture, very strict safeguards, and legal punishments: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/powerpost/wp/2016/09/21/this-is-why-donald-trumps-tax-returns-havent-been-leaked/?utm_term=.8732f62fd5f3 So you'd have to defeat whatever virtual tripwire thing there is, put it on a flash drive (since printing all that much would likely take too long) and somehow escape with the information and send it to a reporter and the reporter probably couldn't verify it. Plus, if the reporter asks, the IRS checks the logs and then you're hosed. I mean, there were lots and lots and lots of very rich people that didn't want their tax returns leaked before Donnie, so they probably have the access locked down tight.

As seen in a previous post of mine, everyone is hype over the "successful" mission, eager for revenge, and excited to finally be let off the leash. And killing civilians is just a reality of war.

People on social media are praising trump for dropping everything he was doing to go to a SEAL funeral and totally glossing over what got him killed in the first place. "Trump dropped everything and left. Where he was going will make you proud."

TBeats posted:Weren't people enforcing the EO after the stay was granted after the ACLU did some work? A lot of the confusion is that parts of the executive order were struck down, at certain places, for certain people. This ruling is a nationwide stop-everything order. CBP might still violate it, but it's a lot harder to legally justify, since the executive order right now no longer legally exists.
