    The legislative branch is fake. They abandoned their powers by degrees until the Biden regime when they stopped pretending Presidents aren’t Emperors. They do not have war powers and they do not have power to remove the dictator. Time to look for other options.

      the Biden regime

      What a strange thought. Grandpa Biden had a regime; “Sleepy Joe” was a dictator.

      I don’t know where half these ideas come from, where the most milquetoasty president since Carter is now an emperor.

        For those of us that were paying attention, executive power has been growing since the start of the country. Just definitionally it’s hard not to call the last several presidents authoritarians, you just don’t notice when it’s your guy, or when it’s been creeping since the start. Certainly some tried to be restrained, but when you can solve things with a shortcut, most presidents in my lifetime have abused their authority.
