News@lemmy.world•Trump Reportedly Mulling Plan to Declare ‘National Emergency’ Paving Way for Major Power Grab
6·13 days agoThey’re emboldened. You’re assuming they care and people play by the rules. This is all about breaking political norms.
Let’s say, for example, Trump wrote an EO that said “State and Federal employees don’t have to marry gay people if it’s against their faith”. Remember Kim Davis? A person who did that unprompted by the POTUS. There’s plenty of asshats like her in important county positions around the country.
Given the success of recent Democratic elections, sometimes swinging districts by 20 points in previous Trump districts for the win…all it takes is some people in some key places to do some nefarious shit.

Live in a black area of a county in GA? Close down the polling station.
Look Hispanic near a polling station? Maybe ICE tackles you and arrests you for no reason.
Woman and your name doesn’t match? No vote.
It’s really not hard to understand what they’re trying to do. Whites don’t have more rights than you on paper. They would love to change that, and they start by bending and then breaking the law.

3·1 month agoThey go nuts on people who do comply. They give conflicting instructions and then punish you when you don’t comply. ICE will ask for your ID and then walk away with it and never give it back.
