Some crazy-ass Trump supporter on Reddit responded to me today that we should repeal the 22nd so that he can be in for life. Holy hell. How does one even reconcile that with believing in a democracy? I don't know. I just know it's dangerous beyond belief.
People like that astound me. I love how they think they can cherry-pick which parts of the Constitution to uphold and which parts to repeal. I'd love to tell that person, "Okay, you want to repeal the 22nd Amendment? Fine, as long as we get to repeal the 2nd Amendment, too," and watch him completely lose his shit.

A few years ago, I considered making a tee-shirt in response to the 2nd amendment ones; something along the lines of 'There are 10 amendments in the Bill of Rights, not just 1', or even do one with all of them, there's what, 25 or so now? I'm feeling lazy [okay, tired] and not up to looking it up, but still....

I don't know if they actually think he's a good president or if they just like him because he "triggers the libs." Right-wing politics is very into "whatever upsets people to the left of us" for some reason.
It's the latter. I see it on Facebook and Twitter all the time.

That's functionally impossible, as it takes 3/4 of the states to amend the constitution. Clinton won 20 states in 2016, and 23 states have democratic governors at the moment.

45's attempting to control the narrative on other stations besides Faux, it would seem:
Dear God, they are really stepping up their gaslighting efforts. I think Donald Trump et al are genuinely afraid of what's in that Mueller report and are doing everything they can to discredit it or bury it. Is there anyone who can force AG Barr to make the full, uncensored report publicly available?

And if there is, is there anyone who could do that, who *would* do that?

While collusion may not be an actual thing, or at least rising to the level of a criminal conspiracy, the obstruction part is just bonkers. Trump has made it clear that he's been trying to get rid of that investigation the whole time, there are so many statements and lies on the public record. Mueller was a coward.

Yep, I agree. But how much of one depends on what's in that report. Unfortunately, we will probably never know. Trump's administration is poised to bury that report so deep, it may never see the light of day again.
