    Last election cycle, I got flamed by libs for suggesting that incoming administrations like Biden don’t seem to have plans for implementing their ideas. They say something like “Biden is going to cancel student debt” then when I ask what the steps to do that would be, I just get NPC “neutral, neutral, neutral, mad” comic face. I then ask "there isn’t even a folder laying around the Biden campaign office that has plans in it?

    Apparently I’m a big, stupid asshole for asking stuff like that.

          … Then in University I learned that they based the powers of the President almost whole cloth from the Powers the King had at the time except he was elected … and Could be charged with a crime … (except now that is up for argument … so… I guess back to king agian)

            When it’s (D) king, you can’t criticize them and anyone who does is an enemy of the kingdom.
