  So he’s an “ends justify the means” kinda guy?

  Huh. Reminds me of somebody.

    He’s probably looking for a final solution to his problem

    “He who saves his Country does not violate any Law”

    i suspect someone will try to save this country, and it won’t be someone at the top of the current ‘administration’.

      I would say that’s what he meant but from the other side. I don’t read this as him excusing himself. I read it as a message to the followers who may “do something”

  Luigi tried to save his country. I guess they are wasting time with that trial if no laws were broken…

  Then Luigi goes free, easy as.

    Every response to that tweet should be a variation of “free Luigi.”

  So an assassination would be legal?

    By him, yes.

  I can’t imagine why he bothers, what are they going to do, charge and/or convict him of a felony? They’ve done that… 34 times. It didn’t do shit. I honestly don’t understand why he feels the need to pretend the bullshit he’s doing isn’t illegal/immoral/unconstitutional/etc.

    That was a message to his supporters.

  He isn’t suggesting. He is stating the exact thing the supreme court ruled on. Anyone elected president can do whatever they want no matter how “illegal” and they are immune from prosecution IF what they were doing was in service to the country. This is what Democrats flopped over on that proved to me they are in on it. No supreme court term limits, or adjusting the way judges are appointed. Trump won’t be the worst. The worst likely hasn’t even gotten their public debut yet, they will execute their political opponents, take whatever they want, and rule like a modern Caesar, then maybe the congress will revolt and kill them, but the congress will never return their ill-gotten power, they want it for themselves.

  That should be an inspiration for the next Luigi.

  Geez where have I heard that before?

• phoenixz@lemmy.ca ⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

  I too can detonate nukes over a city if I say it is to save the country, it would not break any laws whatsoever!

  We are saving it from those nasty poors. The billionaires shall inherit the Earth, I believe that’s what it said.

  another distraction.

  what’s this “attempt at saving” he’s trying to grift this time? sovereign wealth funds now that cfpb-something is dismantled?
