    Dan Quayle saved our democracy
    I mean, you get to say this now thanks to people like Gen Milley... hopefully you're onboard with giving this hero a medal...

    Milley should get the Congressional Medal of Honor for saving world from a maniac loser.

    We are in middle of hurricane season and you know trump would have used them to stop the hurricanes.

    As he famously said, “Why bother having nuclear weapons if you are afraid to use them?”

    I guess, if Pence was allowed to overturn it, then it would be within the democratic process to do so if he wanted to. That is, unless the democratic process is just an ideology and not our actual process.

    The phrase you're looking for is "cons utional authority," not "democratic process," and you're still wrong. Pence had no legal authority to overturn it.

    The democratic process (and attributions of each branch of government) is established by the US Cons ution. Pence was not allowed to overturn it, per the US cons ution, the rest is moot.

    The Cons ution is only as good as the ins utions willing to uphold it. That's how it works in a democracy, and why democracies are tear down by ins utions like the military, etc.

    Democracy is a lot more fragile than people give it credit for. The US is generally an outlier in that it has had strong ins utions willing to play by Cons utional rules, thus a long lasting democracy.

    But, when those ins utions start undermining cons utional authority, they also undermine democracy.

    I said he had no legal authority to do it, not that he couldn't do it. Try to follow along with the adults if you're going to insert yourself needlessly and derpishly into every discussion.

    And these books "we" will be reading are going to show this.
    I had no idea if we put a completely incompetent self absorbed wanna be king... he could actually get enough of a crowd following him as to put us into a shaky situation. The ins utions he tried to steam roll will be judged on how they ended up working for a president and not a country; we will get a more accurately view jbecause Trump cant hide every damn witness and do ent anymore. The blatant attempts to use these ins utions for a campaign... fkn ridiculous.

    Let the information flow. We need it out there and people need to understand how wrong this is.
    He should have been prosecuted and found guilty of coercing a foreign intelligence agency to dig up crap on a political opponent. Perfectly clear to me. Its also pretty clear he may have had no idea it was simply wrong which is even more disturbing that this asshat was not warned ahead of time. His own slaves even had a in their pants with that phone call.
    Or maybe he did know at was pulling "the art of the deal" This should be interesting.

    For me your name reminds me of a cartoon character who can utter just one word. derp.. derp ... derp
    I guess the cadence and intonation of the derps perfectly characterize your profound ability to understand.... well... not much of anything. You just derp to problems. You derp at food. You derp at clouds.

    We have a new rating scale since the orange fck got thrown out of office.
    Quayle is relegated to minor league red team f up. Hardly a blip.

    So overturning the election wouldn't kill democracy? I've seen you get heated over light bulbs and you want to call people worried about our democracy ending drama queens?

    Well, if Dear Leader became king supreme and the next 20 elections would have every candidate with a Trump last name, Darrin would still vote for them, so I can see why he doesn't think it's a big deal, tbh
