The delusion to think they can ban any future president from doing anything. That being said I’m seriously concerned they’re trying the Putin playbook to stay in power indefinitely and prop up a puppet administration in 2028 while they work out attempting to overturn term limits.

They also think they can make permanent laws for transgenders as well.
The only thing that comes even close within the system is Constitutional ammendment and good luck with all of that.

Well don't you think its ironic that Trump is buying all that diesel gas and musk just limited all of Ukrianes starlink systems.
Sounds like Trump made a deal with Putin to help him win his election again.

u/Rubychan11 4h ago
I just hope they'll do something about it this time if it happens again. They really gave us a lot of hope right after the last election, coming out with social media posts about oh there are things in the works or this and that, it was ridiculous that nothing was ever discovered because we know that election interference happened.

The 3rd bullet is such a perfect encapsulation of American conservatives. Sounds like socialism, but it's for them, so it's good. Also, it doesn't actually mean anything. But it sounds good! All of it is drivel, of course, but they feel so smart when they say things like "stop payments to big insurance companies" when all of their politicians are bought and paid for by insurance companies. So cute.

u/Shenanigans80h 17h ago
I did find that one in particular hilarious because it’s not even something Trump has ever entertained or attempted to do, but you know it’s something conservatives want. Because (shocker) people want to have healthcare that doesn’t bankrupt them or have caveats of any kind. I would pity them if they weren’t so callous

u/moshlyfe 16h ago
He openly talks about how he wants the rich to get richer! And if you tell conservatives that we should tax those rich people so they have less money and power to buy politicians, they call you a communist! It's insane!

So do they realize the whole “transitioning your child” is the teachers accepting the child’s preferred name and pronouns. They aren’t performing surgery during school hours. They just accept the child for who they are. I know it’s horrible.

“Mandatory voter ID and proof of citizenship”
I get potentially being worried about voter ID but isn’t the risk of voter fraud relatively low anyway. Also if you are going to introduce voter ID at least have implement a system allowing people to get a free ID
17
u/Vyzantinist 16h ago
A glaring example of how conservatives never argue in good faith. Liberals have said over and over again they would be fine with mandatory voter ID if it's free and easy to obtain. If conservatives were so bothered about voting fraud and adamantly wanted to pass the SAVE act then they would acquiesce, because they would be getting what they want anyway. But instead they just plug their fingers in their ears, mumble "we didn't hear that", and just repeat libs are rabidly opposed to voter ID.

u/Valten78 14h ago
That's because it's not really about preventing voter fraud, it's about adding friction to the voting process.

u/Kuraeshin 17h ago
Not just free id, free ID that can be obtained regardless of location.
Because you know they will find a way to make it the most inconvenient locations for people they don't want to vote.

u/max_power1000 5h ago
That’s exactly what they’ve done in states where they have added voter ID laws. When Alabama did it, they then proceeded to shut down most DMVs in predominantly black areas leaving something like 1 per county before the courts made them stop.
6
u/FeelMyBoars 14h ago
They will never implement a requirement for proof of citizenship because the only way to do that is to require a passport. Maybe some immigration documentation also has photo with status.
The ID requirement is to filter out those who don't have one because statistically those that don't are less likely to vote their way. Making them free would defeat the point. Also name changes to filter out women for the same reason.

Oh shit where do I even start on this? Am I the one? Do I have to say it?
The borders have never been "open" it's always been that you need to get a green card or visa to come here, if you're not a refugee, and then you're subjected to the same law, "illegals" still make it of course but INS has been a thing for years I PERSONALLY SAW CRIMINALS COME BACK INTO THE US AND GET CHARGED AGAIN IN HIS FIRST TERM, DEPORTED AND MAKE IT BACK, it may have been his talking point but he didn't really do anything,
voting has always required a valid ID and social as well as receiving benefits. Period. Ask anyone on snap you cant get it without a social and it takes months to verify,
there is no Healthcare plan, he defunded the Healthcare system, it was cheaper subsidized though a business with actual pull you as a private citizen are screwed,
no cash bail? Not sure why he'd care?
Drug dealers? Didn't he pardon the founder of the silk road (largest drug dealer in the world) and give special treatment to cartel families? and pardon J6 rioters that assaulted police? And haven't a couple of them been charged with CP and assaulting children since? (Yeah he did)
Weren't there less than 20? Trans people competing in sports but that was day ONE executive order worthy? No one fucking cares
No school has ever done a sex change PERIOD that was only started because a couple teacher agreed to refer to their students by their pronouns and IIRC they were fired for it, no one has a surgical center in the back of a public school that this administration has also decided to cut funding to, they were asked to prove it in congress they couldn't name ONE SCHOOL WHERE ITS HAPPENED.

u/WeirdlyHugeAvocado 10h ago
I still genuinely do not understand this healthcare idea Republicans suddenly seem to think will fix the system. Who is paying the insurance companies and will stop? Who is going to be paying the people? is the government paying us? Isn't that socialism? Are we paying ourselves? Each other? How does any of that lower healthcare costs?

u/dark-canuck 6h ago

u/UnNumbFool 7h ago
And the only thing they won't actually care to make a thing will be the health care thing.
The trans stuff will be easy opposition and talking points on why Democrats are bad
And closing the boarders is well something they want, sucks that can most likely get repealed maybe even via an eo to spite trump for being clearly illegal
The death penalty thing I can see unfortunately passing as this is a country that believes in punitive punishment

So his platform is: extreme xenophobia, increased voter registration bureaucracy, an impossibility, empowerment of the prison industrial complex, hypocrisy, a culture war issue, and another culture war issue?
There seems to be a big thing missing here - namely the actual improvement of people's living costs and lives. But who am I to say? Maybe I'm just sick with TDS. Or just sick of the circumstances we live in.

“Banning any future president from X”, “permanent law”, “yada yada”
I think Trump has proven that it doesn’t matter what presidents are or aren’t allowed to do or what the law says, the president can and will do whatever the fuck they want!
Unfortunately there’s only a certain type of president that acts this way.
Imagine a president came in flipped everyone off and said fuck it “universal healthcare and free/cheap education for all”

I don't think they can even define "open borders" millions of tourists from Mexico and Canada cross every day. They don't need a visa, at most they need their countries ID and s passport. Does he want to end day trips across the border? That's the closest thing we have to "open borders"

u/Maryland_Bear 16h ago
Just regarding the death penalty for large scale drug dealers.
These are people in a business where violent death is a constant threat. The threat of execution isn’t going to be much of a deterrent.
Also, there’s good reason that almost the only crimes for which there is a death penalty are those where someone is killed. If, for instance, extreme cases of sexual violence were capital crimes, it incentivizes killing the victim so they can’t talk.

A lot of laws for things that aren’t happening in the first place. No one is transitioning or mutilating children, there have never been open boarders, there has always been a requirement to be an American citizen to vote in American elections, there has never been a problem with men in women’s sports… it’s just a whole bunch of fear mongering with no actual substance.

It is such a joke because Trump himself literally ignores laws that Congress passes all the time. His buying diesel from Putin is a perfect example, that is illegal under laws that passed Congress, yet here he is!
After his precendent there is virtually nothing that a future president couldn't do, the only recourse would be if the courts oppose them, and even that is not a guaranteed way to stop them, as we have seen many times with Trump.
