Lol! Another celebrity lawyer is about to sacrifice her entire career and personal credibility pursuing Donny-Dumbfuck's legal agenda. I hope she winds up just like Giuliani did.

Non-american here with a serious question:

When someone adult is eventually elected president, how hard will it be to fire all these idiots hired by the orange baby?

[–] surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 23 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

Pretty easy. This is part of the problem. The president has too much power, so any idiot that gets voted it can swing things back and forth. It's horrible for stability.

Agreed, except for in the only place that really matters - because it has lifetime terms and deteines how all law is interpreted by the courts - the supreme court.

I say this is the only place that matters because laws passed by congress can easily be undone by the next congress, however a two thirds majority is needed to make constitutional amendments (and other major changes) - so in other words, it all just swings back and forth between Super Shit (R's) and Shit Lite (D's), and the only time who's in charge is very important is when there's supreme court nominations up - because they can set the course for the country for 40 years.

And Trump nominated four of them.

At this point why not just declare FOX "News" the official recruiting platform for White House jobs?

You mean like he did last week? . . . .

Jk, but wouldn't be surprising.
