Because that's how people act when they have enough.

Other things become more important, like solving obvious problems and doing a greater service.

Some people are like that, and we seem to have a few, thankfully.

I support what you say...but trump is no better, and maybe far worse than Biden AOC, and that gang. The dems threatened America, by changing it, by changing culture, by destroying the work ethics, by believing they knew what was best for every minority and making the majority pay. Imagine the statue of Columbus being taken down.. But trump is dangerous to the script the founding fathers wrote. 

Let's hope I am wrong, by I fear not.

You are correct...but

How is it that many citizens suddenly believe that a group of billionaires are suddenly working tirelessly for the benefit of the working class of America. 

 

Many on the democrat side have believed that about Soros and Gates for years.  The reality is that billionaires are very deliberate with where they invest their time and money and there will always be an ulterior motive beyond the "kindness of their heart." What is Musk's motive? We will find out at some point.

 

I don't fully trust Musk but I find it funny how billionaires backing a party all of the sudden became taboo when one backed a different one from the rest.

more billionaires supported Harris and Biden than trump. You act as though they aren’t pulling the dems strings. At least now Elon is doing it right out in the open. Elon has a knack for creating wildly successful innovative companies. Let’s give him a shot

You should be on stage...blame the past for what trump is doing. Your second marriage can be worse than the first.

The dems blamed Bush, it didn't help. Look down the road where you are heading rather than the mirror. It might frighten you.

I’m more frightened at how Biden was mentally incapacitated for four years and we had no idea who was making decisions. That’s how democracy dies…in the dark

Do we have a choice?  Seems like 2 people are calling all the shots. I don’t get the rebuttal that Trump should do anything he wants cause the Dems didn’t do a good job. That’s an insane argument.

Nobody is saying let him do whatever he wants but he’s doing the things he campaigned on and you seem shocked.

There you go blaming old Biden for the loss of your constitution

I haven’t lost my constitution. So you were fine that we had a mentally incapacitated president? I’d really love an answer

There is no universally accepted definition of a constitutional crisis, but legal scholars agree about some of its characteristics. It is generally the product of presidential defiance of laws and judicial rulings. It is not binary: It is a slope, not a switch. It can be cumulative, and once one starts, it can get much worse.

It can also be obvious, said Erwin Chemerinsky, dean of the law school at the University of California, Berkeley.

“We are in the midst of a constitutional crisis right now,” he said on Friday. “There have been so many unconstitutional and illegal actions in the first 18 days of the Trump presidency. We never have seen anything like this.”

He ticked off examples of what he called President Trump’s lawless conduct: revoking birthright citizenship, freezing federal spending, shutting down an agency, removing leaders of other agencies, firing government employees subject to civil service protections and threatening to deport people based on their political views.

That is a partial list, Professor Chemerinsky said, and it grows by the day. “Systematic unconstitutional and illegal acts create a constitutional crisis,” he said.

 

Is your next argument that Chemerinsky is a liberal who was trolled and is having a meltdown and would argue Biden was a wonderful president? 

 

I guess running for a third term is just trolling as well.  What a swell president we have.  Troller in Chief. 

 

No I was disgusted with the way liberal media LIED about Biden's cognitive skills and complete disregard for the border.  Doesn't mean Trump gets to do whatever he wants cause he won an election.

Biden was one of the worst Pres in history, even before his alzeimers/dementia. The last 4 yrs was destroying American culture and nearly bankrupted the country. 

But you have now a far more dangerous situation, as does the world.

I am sorry but whatever you are reading is 100% incorrect if you believe that Biden was more in line with the founding fathers than Trump. If you want to argue the founding fathers are not relevant anymore I will disagree but your point would be much more valid. The founding fathers would be horrified by what our government has become and I don't know anyone who understands US history who disagrees.
