    Because it’s all imaginary and I can’t believe people seek comfort in a piece of paper and the concept of rule of law.

    A strongman, such as potentially trump but it could be any authoritarian in any country - will just wipe his ass with the constitution and do whatever the fuck he wants. It’s not like the law is going to stop him. He’s a convicted felon and he’s still going to be president despite that. And the J6 case (the only one with any real merit, IMO) that they had four years to prosecute is now dropped.

    Laws don’t matter. Laws don’t protect you. Laws exist to protect the in group and punish the out group.
