It's not scrap metal. It's valuable building material. It's heavy gauge steel. A little surface rust will come right off; if it were to be painted; but it is being erected without paint.
Yup. And I believe Trump thinks his authority extends further than it does, which, to me, makes him an authoritarian. That's what drives the concern, among many, that Trump may act like a dictator. And, let's not forget, Trump himself has declared that he would be a dictator "on day one", so it's not exactly an imagined concern. Sure, he says he'll only do it for one day...but how many dictators give up their power so readily? Plus which, given his proven history of fraud, I'd say he hasn't exactly earned the benefit of the doubt where trust is concerned. (Your mileage may vary, of course.)
You didn't listen to the oral arguments before the Supreme Court - too bad, although you can still go back and hear (or read the transcript). Yes, one of the questions asked was that if the president, any president, as president ordered the assassination of the president's political rival, would that be protected as a presidential act (approximately starting at 5:47 again at 19:09). This also appeared in the dissenting opinion.
Yes. The example argued before the SCOTUS included an example of a president ordering Seal Team Six to assassinate a political rival. The ruling is, that would be considerd an "official act" since the act is a president directing military. "Official Acts (of which there is no specific definition)" have absolute immunity.
Indeed.
Actually it's supposed to rust and not be painted. It's a special copper and steel alloy in which rust forms a protective layer rather than progressiviely deteriorating. The problem with the wall is not the surface rust but that it can easily be cut through in minutes with a portable reciprcating saw available for $79.95 at convenient Home Depot locations throughout northern Mexico.
Now you have some understanding about why some of us are very, very concerned about Trump being in office again, especially given this ruling by the SCOTUS. Trump will have no limits on what he wants to do, and cannot be held accountable for any questionable or clearly illegal actions he takes, so long as he does so in an official capacity.
I can understand where you are coming from, yes, but Trump really isn't that bad.
I wish I could believe you. But the man has been proven guilty of fraud too many times for me to be so trusting of him, or his intentions.
Who's relying on the media? Court records of his guilty verdicts and criminal convictions are enough.
Me as well, and my perception of the man, based on his own words and actions, does not equate with yours.
Fair enough. I respect your opinion and you have every right to it. That's totally cool.
Cool.
Not according to a court of law. Actually, several of them.
You as well.
