He doesn’t have a chance to do anything because he is the president, not a majority of congress.
Lincoln didn’t have a chance to end slavery either but found a way to get it done… even without immunity to do virtually anything, as an official act of the President, to compel cooperation.
Lincoln kind of ended slavery, but only in a territory he was at war with. He never actually did anything through standard political means. In fact he wasn’t even opposed to slavery, he just used abolition to help preserve the union. The true end of slavery in america occurred with a constitutional amendment.
Did it?
The 13th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, ratified in 1865, abolished slavery and involuntary servitude, except as punishment for a crime.
With a much heavier focus on policing and arresting people of color, as well as passing laws to target specific groups of people, expanding probable cause, and all that jazz.
So sure, you aren’t born into slavery per se, but being forced to mop prison floors because a cop didn’t like your face, no chance to go home or have any other real autonomy?
Its just slavery with extra steps.
No. I say change trump before marijuana.
