It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to [email protected]

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

Can't they borrow the CIA's heart attack gun? Since Trump is the biggest threat to America?

Either Trump isn't Hitler 2.0 or they don't give a shit that he's Hitler 2.0

They have been hitting him with the heart-attack gun continuously since he started running for President, but because his heart is constantly failing on its own, all the gun is doing is restarting it.

Don't hype up the threat if you're in a position of power and aren't willing to do something about it. Pretty simple.

Executive order, no criminals can be presidents with a legal memo from DOJ is the least I would expect if the situation was reversed

The Supreme Court would overrule it. Not that such an executive order could be made to begin with.

John Roberts has made his decision, now let him enforce it

More seriously you probably wouldn't need to issue any new executive orders, signing the existing presidential emergency action documents is probably sufficient, plus declaring a couple of people terrorists

Damn too bad there's literally no way to influence the justices' nor is there any way to pack the courts and you just have to respect their decision, too bad there's no precedent for this. Whelp guess we gotta hand over power to a rabid fascist who will destroy the country, it's not like the president is legally allowed to murder him or something, oh well.

Alternate reality Kamala:

Democrats, it's time to fight for our lives. A fascist is about to take power and we need to do everything in our power to stop him.

Time to get a gun.

Ladies, instead of pussy hats it's time to pack pussy gats

My fellow Americans, I have invoked the 25th Amendment and relieved Pres. Biden of his duties. As President my first priority is activating the national guard and bringing them to protect the white house. Fascists will not step foot in here!

I thought Trump was gonna end democracy and America? Do you not want her to do everything she can to stop that from happening?
