It wasnāt that long ago, that true conservatives stood solidly behind the the 10th Amendment along with the rest of the Constitution. But being as we do not have a real conservative President, the Constitution is meaningless (except the Second Amendment).I guess old fat boy and his fat orange boss don't like the 10th Amendment to the Constitution of the United States. Can you imagine if the President had been permitted to alter the Constitution as he sees fit without going through a Constitutional Convention? Trump would be a dictator worse than Hitler. Thank God the framers anticipated his ilk being President. Bigly!!!Guess Fat Billy Barf got some new marching orders from his Orange Overlord.
The Justice Department will consider taking legal action against governors who continue to impose stringent rules for dealing with the coronavirus that infringe on constitutional rights even after the crisis subsides in their states, Attorney General William Barr said.Blunt means to deal with the pandemic, such as stay-at-home orders and directives shutting down businesses, are justified up to a point, rr said in an interview Tuesday on āThe Hugh Hewitt Show.ā Eventually, though, states should move to more targeted measures, Barr said. He cited the approach laid out by President Donald Trump.

Question: Are there any real conservatives on USMB? Let ās see, Trumpsteers are against States Rights, Checks and Balances, Fiscal Responsibility, Freedom of the Press and Speech, nonpartisan departments of the Federal Government Departments, Voter Rights and Equality For example.
Trumpsterism isnāt an ideology, itās sycophantism
I honestly wish you guys would make up your minds. Nonpartisan? Really?
Trump is awful for interfering in the Justice Department. For besmirching the FBI which has a long and honorable history of honesty and integrity.
Trump is awful for not interfering in the CDC and telling them to use the tests developed by the WHO instead of using their own.
Trump is awful for not diverting funds from other programs to buy Ventilators and masks and protective gear for Health Care Workers. Or something.
Trump is awful for spending money without paying for his cronies gifts. Trump is awful for pointing that the Democrats were also putting gifts to their cronies into the bills.
I just wish you all would make up your fucking minds. I swear, if Trump walked into a hospital and healed the sick by laying his hands on them, you guys would be demanding impeachment procedures for Trump practicing medicine without a license.
Look, Trump isnāt perfect. Obviously. Is Trump better than the alternative we were given in 2016? Just as obviously yes. Is Trump a better choice than Biden? Which Biden are we talking about? The funny uncle Biden who says stupid things? The forgetful Biden who canāt remember what he said yesterday? The touchy Biden who canāt keep his hands off little girls? In other words, Trump in your description, isnāt any worse than Biden. Trump in reality is slightly better.
But I honestly wish you guys would make up your fucking minds. Is Trump awful for interfering with the independence of offices? Or is he awful for not doing so? Is he a terrible man because he says dumb things? Ok, how is Biden a good man for saying dumb things?
Do I wish Trump would settle the fuck down and listen to some of his advisors? Yes. Do I wish those Advisors were able to restrain their urge to stab the man in the back at every chance they can concoct? You bet.
His advisors are not stabbing Trump in the back. They are attempting to give the nation truth and facts. That is NOT stabbing Trump in the back. Have you ever thought to fact check Trumpās rambling misinformation or his advisorās truth?
The position of advisor is both incredibly simple. And complex. First you have to advise the President. But there is no law that he has to take and implement your suggestion. Here is the complex part. You have to accept and support the decision. You canāt run and complain to the Press.
Jimmy Carter ignored the advice of his subordinates and went to Three Mike Island personally. He was viewed as a hero for doing so. Carter took the advice of his Generals and approved Desert One. Carter was roundly denigrated as a bumbling incompetent fool when the rescue mission failed spectacularly.
Reagan ignored his advisors when they insisted he agree to Gorbachov who offered to phase out all nuclear missiles in exchange for dropping Star Wars. Reagan refused and history shows that it was one of the nails in the coffin of that failed political regime.
Every President has ignored some advice and accepted other advice. JFK in the Cuban Missile Crisis ignored advice from his Generals. History shows he was right. The Generals grumbled about it but they obeyed.
Where the advisors to Trump fail is the acceptance of his Decision. They rush out and complain and whine and do not do the job of a subordinate. Accept and enact the decision of your superior.
The President is the Chief Executive. Right or wrong his decision providing it is legal is binding. If you can not carry out those instructions then you can resign, or not. Either way you shut the hell up. Nobody has shut the hell up yet. They run their mouths constantly. With that in mind it would be hard for me to listen with an open mind to your advice. Knowing that before I get done shaking after I take a leak the Press will know whatever it is and be running with it.
