Guess you missed the point—the Constitution no longer matters, and no one is defending it. Not even the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
And nobody will do anything about it. So why bother.
This guy couldn’t run a casino, steak company, etc. He obviously shouldn’t be involved in the electricity and natural gas sectors. This is a pretty telling sign of the depth and gravity of this power grab attempt. This should deeply concern any American who values the country, level of democracy, and freedoms we have had our entire lives up til now. I know full well those freedoms haven’t always been equal, and that’s a shame, and something we still need to work towards, but damn…It’s wild that the country opted-in on this. Many of us suspected it would happen, some didn’t dare believe, others outright refused. Here it is, though, it seems.
