Pedes,
I had totally resigned myself to a Biden presidency after all the events that unfolding last week. What really did it for me, was Trump's speech in DC. It was very defeatist and not his usual vibe. Then when Pence and the Republicans went all out Brutus, I was completely out.
Now, I am starting to wonder because why is big tech and the Dems going fucking insane right now? Why are they trying to impeach him again and get him removed before next week? What are they afraid of? Doesn't it feel like something is going on?
No LARPING! What do REALLY think? Or am I just fucking delusional?
No, you have valid reasons to think that the Insurrection Act might still pop off.
If Trump has it, he will wait until just before inauguration. There will be no warning. He does not want us Patriots taking up arms to 'help'. It is his operation.
My personal belief is that he's just spending his last days in office doing all kinds of last minute shit just like Obama did: pardons, contracts, appointments, etc. Sure a lot of it can be undone but it will bog down the gears of the Biden Administration for a while.
That said, I absolutely leave room for a small chance that he disappeared himself for damn good reason. The reasons for this are the mad scramble to silence all communication from him, and the panic in DC to 25th him.
The 25th-ing makes no sense. Its not about 2024. He has exactly 0% chance of winning in 2024 with Biden as sitting president if they could steal the election in 2020 with Trump as sitting president. That is either Pelosi being vindictive and trying to get that last jab in for him inviting millions of Patriots to the Capitol, or she is trying to stop his ability to execute the insurrection act.
There is also a distinct lack of celebration from the left, unless Ive just put myself in a bubble. If Biden could have shit tier rallys, they can certainly put stupid circles on the floor, mask up, and drop some confetti and balloons while people clapped for that like stupid bastards. But theres been nothing. Just a shitty speech. Harris hasnt yet resigned her seat.
All good observations, but I am also reminded of the Bernie Can Still Win crowd and how I made fun of them. That might just be us right now.
Is the insurrection act separate from his 2018 EO?
