      In an ideal, fair, and just world, yeah, but have you been following the Supreme Court lately? This is their King we’re talking about!

      I’ e come to realize that sadly, legslity is irrelevant. If there are no consequences, then there’s effectively no law for rhe powerful.

      The SCOTUS ruling that they can declare the president above the law was really about shiwing they can make anyone above the law, if they wish.

      The last eight years have highlighted how the US is in fact, a caste system.

      It’s not bribery until he actually pushes for EVs (Tesla, specifically) as President. And then it will be an official act, so he’s immune.

      The supreme court got bribed into saying bribery is fine as long as you pretend it’s not a bribe.
