Well, he's gotta do what he's gotta do.
The ONLY reason to block voter ID rules
is a desire to CHEAT elections - it's
corrupt, it's insane ... modern politics
at its 'best'.
No flavor of 'democracy' can survive when
nobody remotely trusts the electoral process.
But that's the whole lefty IDEA, isn't it ?

The precedent was set, you were fine with it then and NOW you whine

Remember when conservatives were

We must keep the faith and believe that when Trump tramples our constitutional rights, he's only doing it to the leftists and not us.
He's a special man and we all trust him.
Besides, what are the chances of him being replaced by a Democrat who
will use Trump's example to slam the rights of Christians and / or Conservatives just like today?
Conservatives don't need a Democrat
to trample their rights, they have Trump.

It's a very adversarial situation - and Trump promised
to fix things. The USG has become insanely divided and
corrupt and almost entirely focused on screwing the
other side, largely ignoring more real/dangerous foes
and issues around us and sometimes within. As those
intent on corruption and national dissolution seem
willing to go to the max, Trump has to counter them.
So, hate it has to be this way, sometimes you need
a "strong man" to do some weed-wacking.
Fortunately, here, they can't become Emperor. That

Trump XOs *can* be over-ridden ... either by the USSC
or by the legislature ... if absolutely necessary.
He is not a dictator, he is not going to put half

goose-stepping up and down the streets and burning
houses and shops and murdering Jews (like the lefties).

I am very mixed on EO. On one hand I agree that some policies need to be stopped quickly, example is the Biden war on fossil fuels, but on the other hand
since EO can be overturned by the next administration like Biden did with Trump's
first term EO, I don't see how an EO is useful without being codified.

Trump: Voter ID Will Be in Place for Midterms, With or Without
Congress
President Donald Trump said Friday that voter
identification requirements will be in place for
November's midterm elections, even if Congress
fails to pass the SAVE America Act.
"The country wasn't based on executive orders.
Right now, Obama goes around signing executive
orders. It's a basic disaster. You can't do it."
Donald Trump on Executive Orders, Feb 2016
The precedent was set, you were fine with it then and NOW you whine
about executive orders?
So signing EO's is "a basic disaster"
(Trump's term) - unless HE does it.
If it weren't for Double Standards you
guys would have no standards at all.
Trump's executive order avalanche buries his first term
Dec 17
President Trump has signed more executive
orders in less than a year than he did
during his entire first term, according
to new data from Pew Research Center.
The big picture: Trump has shattered
presidential traditions and seized
expansive executive power in his first
year back in office with a sprawling
list of unilateral actions.

irst- term
It's a very adversarial situation - and Trump promised
to fix things. The USG has become insanely divided and
corrupt and almost entirely focused on screwing the
other side, largely ignoring more real/dangerous foes
and issues around us and sometimes within. As those
intent on corruption and national dissolution seem
willing to go to the max, Trump has to counter them.
So, hate it has to be this way, sometimes you need
a "strong man" to do some weed-wacking.
Fortunately, here, they can't become Emperor. That
is another bad problem unto itself.
Trump XOs *can* be over-ridden ... either by the USSC
or by the legislature ... if absolutely necessary.
He is not a dictator, he is not going to put half
the country into gulags, brownshirts will not be
goose-stepping up and down the streets and burning
houses and shops and murdering Jews (like the lefties).
I am very mixed on EO. On one hand I agree that some policies need to
be stopped quickly, example is the Biden war on fossil fuels, but on
the other hand since EO can be overturned by the next administration
like Biden did with Trump's first term EO, I don't see how an EO is
useful without being codified.

"The country wasn't based on executive orders.
It was based on SANE legislatures.
Not much sanity at the moment.

Well, he's gotta do what he's gotta do.
The ONLY reason to block voter ID rules
is a desire to CHEAT elections - it's
corrupt, it's insane ... modern politics
at its 'best'.
No flavor of 'democracy' can survive when
nobody remotely trusts the electoral process.
But that's the whole lefty IDEA, isn't it ?
Remember when conservatives were
demanding state's rights? Now they are
the party of "federal government needs
to control state voter rules".
States have MANY rights ...
But not EVERY right.
The civil war ensured that the federal govt
would be supreme in certain areas.
Conservatives knuckle under any
federal intrusion as long as Trump
is doing it.
